>relearning basic geometry
Am I just a brainlet or do most people find it this boring?
>>
Depends what you mean by "basic". I find euclidean geometry really fun.
>>
>>8870440
For compass/straightedge stuff try euclid the game. It's a fun way to learn that kind of stuff.
>>
>>8870440
>>relearning basic geometry

Why? Skip to precalculus.
>>
>>8870440
skip to differential geometry you brainlet
>>
>>8870542
>not algebraic geometry
nice try, brainlet
>>
>>8870440
Oh it's extremely fucking boring. I hate it.

>>8870510
>>8870542
Not him, but I am in a similar boat.

I am going to college for Comp Sci(le meme), and I know enough Algebra to get by, but I suck ass at Geometry and Trig so I have to learn that shit first.
>>
>>8870440
It's love hate.

It's incredibly boring, but I'm a visual learner so having a rock solid understanding of geometry improves my other math skills when I try to visualize them.
>>
>>8870440

Make it challenging. I wrote up my own axioms after translating the greek version of euclid's elements without a translator, as well as redefined what an angle is and a bunch of other primitives. I also counted, and copied all the definitions from all thirteen books.

I am going to do a text analysis of heath's translation next and then make dependency trees for the definitions.

Things are only as boring as you are.
>>
>>8870485
I lost.

Geometry is my favorite area of math.
>>
You're joking right? Geometry and trigonometry was the best. Arithmetic was for Jewish Muslim Fags.

>tfw I can into calculus II but I can't into basic triangles
JUST
Geometry is the ultimate visual intelligence test.
Prove me wrong.
>>
>>8870440


What the hell is there to "relearn"?
It is about 2 hours of work max, otherwise yes, you are a brainlet.
>>
>>8870440
Learn vectors. It's a lot more fun, and it gives you a much more concise and powerful theory. If you want to have a lot of fun, learn linear algebra.
>>
>>8872366

It is possible to get vectors/linear algebra from synthetic projective/affine geometry. However, there are some projective and affine planes which cannot be described by linear algebra.
