• Technology Connections offer optional investigations of theorems using software such as Geometer's Sketchpad. These exercises are great to use as a thread throughout the book or as extra credit or group activities.
• Hands-on Activities incorporate the use of simple items such as tissue paper, cardboard tubes, pipe cleaners, and envelopes as well as protractors, compasses, and scientific calculators.
• To encourage speaking the language of mathematics and to reinforce conceptual learning, Writing Exercises have been added to many exercise sets throughout the text.
• Caution Notes are highlighted throughout this new edition to help students avoid common errors and misconceptions.
• A glossary of all terms can be easily referenced in one place at the end of the text.
• Three Cumulative Reviews found throughout the book (following Chapters 3, 7, and 10) help students retain material they have learned in previous chapters and help prepare them for a final exam.
