1 Higher Geometry Problems (1) Look up Eucidean Geometry on Wikipedia, and write down the English translation given of each of the first four postulates of Euclid. Rewrite each postulate as a clear statement in modern English, and illustrate with a picture. (2) Rewrite the English translation of Euclid s original fifth postulate using more clear, modern language. Draw a picture that illustrates the statement. () Write down Playfair s Postulate, and explain why it is equivalent to Euclid s fifth postulate. (4) Finish the definition: Two sets A and B in the plane are congruent if... (5) Explain why if we say that a line segment in the plane is vertical, this description of the line segment is not a geometric description. (6) If we consider a finite set S of points in the plane, explain why the number of points of S is a geometric quantity. (7) Give the precise definition of a triangle. (8) Give the precise definition of a quadrilateral. (9) Give the precise definition of a rectangle. (10) Give the precise definition of a parallelogram.

(1) Write down a precise proof that the sum of the measures of the (interior) angles in a triangle is π, the measure of a straight angle. (14) Write down a statement and proof of the formula for the area of a parallelogram. (15) Write down the precise definition of equality of angles. (16) Prove the exterior angle theorem. That is, let the triangle ABC be given. Let D be a point on the ray AB but not on AB. Then m CBD = m BAC + m BCA. (17) Prove that the fact that the sum of angles in a triangle is equal to a straight angle implies Playfair s Postulate. (Thus, the triangle fact may be used in place of the Parallel Postulate.) (18) Prove the formula for the area of a triangle. (19) Give the precise definition of an isosceles triangle and the precise definition of an equilateral triangle. (20) Prove that if triangle ABC is isosceles with AB = AC, then B = C. (21) Show how to construct the perpendicular bisector of a line segment (and thus its midpoint) using a collapsing compass and unmarked straightedge. Prove that your construction works. (22) Suppose that CD is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment AB. Prove that every point on CD is equidistant from A and B. (2) Prove the converse of the last statement. (24) Show how to construct a line that is perpendicular to a given circle at a given point, using a collapsing compass and unmarked straightedge. You may not assume that you have the center of the circle. Prove that your construction works. (25) Show how to construct the incenter of a given triangle, and prove that your construction works. 1

2 2 (26) Show how to construct a tangent line to a circle at a given point on the circle with an unmarked straight edge and collapsible compass. Prove that your construction works. (27) Explain how to construct the center of a given circle. Prove that your construction works. (28) Explain how to construct the diameter of a given circle that contains a given point on the circle. Prove that your construction works. (29) Prove the SAS triangle congruence theorem, using basic notions only. (0) Prove the ASA triangle congruence theorem. You may assume that the SAS triangle congruence theorem has been proved. (1) Suppose that l 1 and l 2 are two different lines that intersect at a point p in the plane. Let l be any other line in the plane. Prove that at least one of l 1 and l 2 must intersect l. [Make sure that your argument is short and concise.] (2) Prove that if L 1, L 2, and L are three lines in the plane, then if L 1 L 2 and L 2 L then L 1 L. () Prove the SAA triangle congruence theorem. You may assume that the ASA triangle congruence theorem has been proved. (4) Prove the SSS triangle congruence theorem. You may assume that the SAS triangle congruence theorem has been proved. (5) Prove that there is no SSA triangle congruence theorem. (Hint: give a counterexample.) (6) Given any line and a point not on the line, show how to construct the line that is perpendicular to the line and that goes through that given point, using a collapsing compass and unmarked straightedge. Prove that your construction works. (7) Given any line and a point not on the line, show how to construct the line that is parallel to the line and that goes through that given point, using a collapsing compass and unmarked straightedge. Prove that your construction works. (8) Prove that lengths can be copied, using a collapsing compass and unmarked straightedge. That is, assume that the line segment AB is given, and assume that another point C is given, and that a ray with vertex C is given. Prove that you can construct a point D on the ray so that AB = CD. (Hint: Draw AC. Construct lines perpendicular to AC at A and at C. Figure out a way to make new points E and F on these new lines so that AB = AE and then AE = CF. Use F to make the point D.) (9) By proving that lengths can be copied (as in the last problem) using a collapsing compass and unmarked straight edge, you are showing that you any construction made with a collapsing compass and unmarked straight edge can also be done with a rigid compass and unmarked straight edge. Therefore, to show that something can be constructed, it is sufficient to show that it can be constructed using a rigid compass and unmarked straight edge. This is the Rigid Compass Theorem. Explain the reasoning behind this. (40) Prove that angles can be copied using a collapsible compass and unmarked straight edge. You may assume that we have already shown the Rigid Compass Theorem.

(56) In the plane, you are given a line l and a point P not on the line. Show how to construct a line parallel to l through the point P, using an unmarked straight edge and collapsing compass. Give your answer as a sequence of steps. Diagrams are allowed. (You do not need to use a compass to make your diagrams pretty.) You do not need to justify the steps. (57) Prove that the number n is constructible, if n is any positive integer. (58) Prove that the length 2 is constructible. (You may assume that we know how to do the constructions we have done in class/notes.) (59) Prove that 75 is irrational. (60) Prove the following versions of the Carpenter s Rectangle Theorem: (a) Given a quadrilateral ABCD, suppose that B is a right angle and that AB = CD.

14 14 (180) Below is a list of statements. In the columns, indicate if the statement is true or false (T or F) in the indicated geometric setting. No justification is necessary. Statement Euclidean plane Sphere Hyperbolic Plane The sum of the measures of the angles in a triangle is always no more than 180 degrees. If A = D, B = E, and C = F, then ABC = DEF. Given two fixed points, there exists at least one geodesic connecting them. There exist an infinite number of geodesics that are parallel to each other. The ASA triangle congruence theorem is true. For any two given geodesic lines, they intersect in at least 1 point.
