Key To Geometry, Book #4
Key to Geometry prepares students for formal geometry through step-by-step constructions. Using a pencil, compass, and straightedge, students start with basic drawings and progress to complex constructions. This series introduces 134 geometric terms and encourages students to develop their own generalizations. Book 4 focuses on Perpendiculars.

Key to Geometry provides a welcoming approach to preparing students for formal geometry through step-by-step constructions. Starting with simple tools like a pencil, compass, and straightedge, students initially learn to draw lines, bisect angles, and replicate segments. As they progress, they engage in more complex constructions that involve numerous steps, leading them to develop their own generalizations. By the end of the series, students will have encountered 134 geometric terms and be well-prepared to approach formal proofs. Book 4 specifically focuses on constructing perpendiculars.
