Elements of Constructive Geometry: Inductively Presented is a book written by William Noetling and first published in 1899. The book is a comprehensive guide to the principles and techniques of constructive geometry, which is the study of the construction of geometric figures using only a compass and a straightedge. The book is divided into three parts, each of which covers a different aspect of constructive geometry. The first part provides an introduction to the subject, including a discussion of the basic tools and techniques used in constructive geometry, as well as an overview of the history of the subject. The second part of the book focuses on the construction of various types of geometric figures, including lines, angles, triangles, circles, and polygons. The final part of the book is devoted to the application of constructive geometry to more advanced topics, such as the construction of regular polyhedra, the solution of geometric problems using algebraic methods, and the use of constructive geometry in architectural design. Throughout the book, Noetling emphasizes the importance of using a rigorous, logical approach to problem-solving in geometry, and provides numerous examples and exercises to help readers develop their skills in this area. Overall, Elements of Constructive Geometry: Inductively Presented is an essential resource for anyone interested in the study of geometry, whether as a student, teacher, or professional. With its clear explanations, detailed illustrations, and practical exercises, this book provides a solid foundation for the study of this fascinating subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
