Transformational Geometry
When: MTWH, 12:30 -- 4:00
Where: LCB 121
Office hour -- email when you need it.
- Day 1:
- Notes we took today
- Reading 0 -- to make things clear, you will receive this book at the end of our time together -- I just thought it's better if we don't reveal all the secrets at once.
- Euclid and Hilbert's sets of axioms -- in case you'd like to see what they were up to.
- Introduction to Geogebra -- more awesome stuff like this is located at Ohio Geogebra Institute
- For tomorrow: Try to think about what each of the transformations from today's agenda might be "doing". Note that your problem says "graph" even though that's not techinically what you'll be doing in this problem.
- Day 2:
- Agenda for today, but really yesterday's...
- Notes we took today
- For tomorrow: The first problem from the Problem Set #1 should be complete.
- Day 3:
- Agenda for today. We left some stuff for tomorrow :)
- Notes we took today
- For tomorrow: Finish up the bridge problem. Also, let me get a quick pulse on the course (make sure you click the submit button:
- Day 4:
- Agenda for today.
- Notes we took today
- For Monday: Homework for Monday: pdf and tex. Continue working on Alice's problems, and finish the bridge problem (or at least get a good handle on it)
- Day 5:
- Agenda for today.
- Notes we took today
- Also! Oh, Oh! Remember how we convinced ourselves that a composition of a rotation and translation wasn't a rotation except in a special case? Turns out there is nothing special about the special case and a composition of rotation and translation is a rotation. Ah, handwaving will cost us our heads.
