This book was created by students at Westminster College in Salt Lake City, UT, for the May Term 2014 course Projective Geometry (Math 300CC-01). Coxeter's book, Projective Geometry (Second Edition) is one of the classic texts in the field. This GeoGebraBook contains dynamic illustrations for figures, theorems, some of the exercises, and other explanations from the text.

In Euclidean geometry, constructions are made with a ruler and compass. Projective geometry is simpler: its constructions require only a ruler. In projective geometry one never measures anything, instead, one relates one set of points to another by a projectivity. This classic book introduces the important concepts of the subject and provides the logical foundations, including the famous ...

Coxeter provides good coverage of the fundamental concepts of synthetic projective geometry. This is a good introductory book. The examples provided are clear. Coxeter's style is concise. Topics such as Desargues theorem , Pappus's theorem and conics are covered. The solutions to some exercises can be found in the back of the book.

by looking for the analytic projective geometries satisfying certain synthetic axioms. A vivid introduction into the plane projective geometry can be found in H. S. M. Coxeter [34]. In the sequel we wiU always suppose that a vector space V over a skew field K is given^. The set of one-dimensional subspaces of V wiU be denoted by

Coxeter's approach in Projective Geometry is elementary, presupposing only basic geometry and simple algebra and arithmetic, and largely restricting itself to plane geometry, but it does assume a general mathematical competence. He is rigorous without being too formal, with an strong emphasis on geometric intuition — coordinates are introduced only in the final chapter — and introduces new ...

This document is the preface to the second edition of a textbook on projective geometry by H.S.M. Coxeter. The preface outlines some of the key changes made in the second edition, including replacing certain notation, emphasizing analogies between configurations, and adding a section on self-polarity. It expresses gratitude to readers who suggested improvements and corrections to the first ...
