Description
Many of the important attributes of a triangle are quite well known: its angles, side lengths, area, circumradius and inradius for example. Other equally important features are less familar; the Brocard angle for example. This DVD presents a wealth of fascinating connections between these formulas. Additional supplementary material is available for downloading free at the Highperception front page. Viewing the DVD without doing the exercises will be of limited value.
The presenter and authors
This DVD is presented by Dr Ceri Fiddes who is Head of Department at Stowe School in Buckinghamshire, England. She was the UK deputy leader at the International Mathematical Olympiads in 2006 and 2007. She is co-author of the commentary with Dr Geoff Smith of the University of Bath. He has been the UK IMO leader since 2002.
Licences
This material is extremely compact, and we do not expect it to be viewed at a single sitting. Rather an able student will want to watch a short section of it, and then do relevant exercises downloaded from the Highperception home page, perhaps over a week.
The price above is for a single user licence. If you need a school site licence, indicate this when you add the DVD to your cart. The cost of a DVD with a school licence is only double the price of one with a single user licence.
DVD viewing
This DVD is designed for viewing on a computer screen. If you want to try to view it on a TV, see the link marked `details' in the Highperception home page.
