Non-Euclidean Geometry by Henry Manning - PDF
About this book :-
This is a classic book that introduces readers to new types of geometry where the usual Euclidean rules don’t always apply. It begins with the theorems common to Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry, and then it addresses the specific differences that constitute elliptic and hyperbolic geometry. Major topics include hyperbolic geometry, single elliptic geometry, and analytic non-Euclidean geometry.
The book also has math formulas and some history about how these ideas were discovered. It’s a helpful guide for anyone with some background in geometry who wants to learn about these alternative systems.
