Description: This book addresses the need for training in practical geometry relevant to science and industry. The author emphasizes that the traditional focus on pure geometry, with its Euclidean restrictions, is not suited to real-world applications. This book, therefore, teaches methods that can be used by science students and anyone else required to produce precise graphical constructions. It is laid out in a practical manner, with numerous examples for the reader to follow. The author includes the use of squared paper, protractors, and other tools. The key concept throughout the book is the necessity of limiting errors to within predefined tolerances. The author illustrates how graphical construction can be used to provide graphical or semi-graphical computations that often have advantages over analytical processes.
