LAM 405 Geometry

This course provides an advanced study of Euclidean geometry with an emphasis on formal proofs. Major concepts of Euclidean geometry and selected non-Euclidean geometries are examined. Theorems of the reals, incidence, congruence, distance, and triangles are proved using a variety of methods. Various interpretations of geometry through number and transformations of the plane are explored. This course applies toward the math major, minor, and concentration. Prerequisites: LAM 307 recommended and LAM 311 required or departmental consent. 5 quarter hours
