Given the importance of geometry, its frequent use in our daily lives, and its significance in educating students in schools, community colleges, and universities, this book was created to help students at all levels learn and teach geometry successfully and in engaging ways.

This book is presented in nine chapters:

• Chapter One: Covers the nature of geometry and its teaching methods, the modern perspective on geometry according to the NCTM Standards, and the educational tools used in its instruction.
• Chapter Two: Details fundamental geometric concepts such as the point, straight line, ray, plane, angle and its measurement, polygons, and the relationships between lines, planes, angles, and their types. It also includes questions and exercises to assess student comprehension.
• Chapter Three: Discusses geometric constructions, such as drawing circles, transferring segments, drawing triangles, constructing perpendicular and parallel lines, and bisecting angles and line segments using a compass and ruler. It also covers congruence and similarity in triangles and geometric shapes, and drawing rectangles, squares, equilateral triangles, and regular polygons within a circle, complete with evaluative problems.
• Chapter Four: Addresses metric and English units of measurement for length, calculating the circumference of a circle, and the area of rectangles, squares, parallelograms, triangles, trapezoids, regular polygons, circles, and circular sectors. It also presents the Pythagorean theorem, its proof, and the calculation of surface areas for prisms, cylinders, pyramids, and cones, as well as volume, mass, and temperature units, with exercises for assessment.
• Chapter Five: Focuses on coordinate geometry, including the coordinate plane, distance between two points, the equation of a circle, and solving systems of linear equations and inequalities.
• Chapter Six: Explores geometric transformations like reflection, translation, rotation, and dilation, with relevant problems and exercises.
• Chapter Seven: Deals with conic sections (parabola, ellipse, and hyperbola) and theorems related to circles and intersecting chords.
• Chapter Eight: Covers solid geometry, including lines and planes in space, solids, special theorems, dihedral angles, and perpendicular planes.
• Chapter Nine: Provides examples of various teaching methods for geometric concepts, skills, and problem-solving, such as cooperative learning, discovery, and applying Polya's famous problem-solving method to geometry.

The book includes detailed solutions for some of the problems and exercises in each unit to provide students with feedback on their performance.
