The authors devote a chapter to each icon, illustrating its presence in real life, its primary mathematical characteristics and how it plays a central role in visual proofs of a wide range of mathematical facts. Among these are classical results from plane geometry, properties of the integers, means and inequalities, trigonometric identities, theorems from calculus, and puzzles from recreational mathematics.Dolciani Mathematical ExpositionsGeometryFamous problemsGeometrical constructionsGeneration of geometric formsProof theoryMathematical notationGeometrical drawingGeometry, PlaneVisualizationGeometryFamous problems.Geometrical constructions.Generation of geometric forms.Proof theory.Mathematical notation.Geometrical drawing.Geometry, Plane.Visualization.516.2/04Alsina Claudi309455Nelsen Roger B.UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910790363603321Icons of mathematics3852853UNINA01361oam 2200421zu 450 991016474080332120210807002143.097808031681210803168128(CKB)3170000000044931(SSID)ssj0000911687(PQKBManifestationID)11495679(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000911687(PQKBWorkID)10994376(PQKB)10548606(NjHacI)993170000000044931(EXLCZ)99317000000004493120160829d1954 uy engur|||||||||||txtccr1952 and 1953 Supplements to the Bibliography and Abstracts on Electrical Contacts[Place of publication not identified]American Society for Testing & Materials19541 online resource (75 pages) illustrationsBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph9780803166820 0803166826 Includes bibliographical references and indexes.Electric contactsCongressesElectric contacts621.3PQKBBOOK99101647408033211952 and 1953 Supplements to the Bibliography and Abstracts on Electrical Contacts2151961UNINA
