Where do we draw the line? If there are two sides to everything, then what's up with triangles, squares, and polygons? Once again, mathematician-turned-cartoonist Larry Gonick uses his unique gift for witty, lively, and clear exposition to demystify another complex subject: geometry. Moving from the most basic geometrical concepts—planes, lines, and points—through elementary postulates and to elaborate proofs, The Cartoon Guide to Geometry is a comprehensive primer on all the essentials of plane geometry: angles, triangles, area, similarity, and, yes, the Pythagorean theorem. Carefully tailored to the curriculum standards and standardized testing guidelines of the subject, this humorous textbook provides innovative visuals that develop proofs and constructions with sequential graphics rather than single illustrations. The reader emerges with a deep grasp of key ideas for effective math help—and has fun getting there. This essential study guide makes learning geometry fun and includes: Plane Geometry Fundamentals: Master the basics, from points, lines, and planes to angles, triangles, area, and similarity, all explained with witty and memorable comics. Visual Proofs and Constructions: See how proofs work step-by-step with sequential graphics that make complex ideas easy to understand. The Pythagorean Theorem Demystified: Finally understand this crucial theorem and how to apply it, broken down with the clarity only a cartoonist can provide. Standardized Test Preparation: Feel confident on test day with content carefully tailored to curriculum standards and standardized testing guidelines. Review: Larry Gonick, at his best - Last of Larry Gonick opus to date, the Cartoon Guide to Geometry. This cartoon guide features the same qualities as the other mathematical cartoon guide by the same author. It is at the same time very precise and rigorous, with actual definitions, theorems, and proofs, and delightful, pleasant, and even some times fun. It contains true geometry, and it offers it to just curious readers. It is the contrary to "Let no one ignorant of geometry enter"! It is "Enter, non-geometer, I will do my best to explain you!". It covers lines and segments, lengths and angles, triangles and polygons. It also covers enough formal logic to conduct all the proofs in the most clear and rigorous way. I recommend it, for pupils and teachers, for curious people, for pure pleasure. Review: Good way to learn! - If your kids like graphic novels and need a new approach to learning math all the books in this series are great. It’s a fun refresher from me trying to teach or paying for a tutor. Gives a 2d and 3d way for a brain to comprehend. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 269,774 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 112 in Algebra (Books) 2,180 in Mathematics Teaching Aids 9,031 in Education Studies & Teaching Resources | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 148 Reviews | ## Images ![The Cartoon Guide to Geometry: A Humorous Mathematics Study Guide on Plane Geometry and Visual Proofs - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91fvlyAzMXL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Larry Gonick, at his best *by O***R on 13 January 2025* Last of Larry Gonick opus to date, the Cartoon Guide to Geometry.
