Lucille Caron - Author
A structured introduction to geometry links basic terms and shapes with practical measurement. It moves from lines, angles, planes and rays to polygons, triangles, circles, symmetry, congruence, area, perimeter, circumference and volume.
Geometry, which means “earth measure” is used to measure anything on earth. No matter what size a rectangle is—whether it be a computer chip, an Olympic-sized swimming pool, or a city block—you can always find its area by multiplying length by width. The basics of geometry—lines, angles, planes, rays—are a great beginning to this addition to the MATH SUCCESS series. Readers also learn about polygons, triangles, circles, congruent figures, symmetry, and cones, as well as areas, perimeters, circumferences, volumes, and more!

The book presents geometry as a method for measuring things on earth, using objects and spaces of different sizes as examples.
The book introduces foundational terms before covering polygons, triangles, circles, congruent figures and symmetry.
The range of terms is substantial, so pausing to draw each shape or label each measurement may help.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the current material supports only a cautious reading; another book-specific source is still needed.
