Course Description
A discussion of fundamental ideas and processes common to Euclidean and non-Euclidean Geometries, including projective, affine and metric geometry. Examines the interplay between inductive and deductive reasoning and formal and informal proof. Addresses uses in areas such as science (transformations, scaling), art (Escher-type tessellations, projections), architecture (three-dimensional figures) and computer science (fractals, computer-aided design).
