Summary: great for reviewing 2007-11-13
Comment: I am involved with tutoring and haven't looked at geometry for MANY years. I am using Cliff's for review and to supplement more in-depth material. I am finding it great for bringing back the material.

Summary: caution 2007-10-22
Comment: Overall this isn't bad for a rapid summmary
but there are some subtle errors which may
undermine the reader's confidence in the
material (e.g. note altitudes and areas
of the triangles on page 76).

Summary: A compact, yet complete review of basic geometry 2007-08-12
Comment: As a long-time teacher of mathematics at the college level, I am always trolling for additional/better materials to help students learn mathematics. Since I am not a fan of the Cliffs Notes series, I hesitated before purchasing this book in a used book store. However, once I started looking through it, I realized that it is a very good review of basic geometry.
It begins with the fundamental postulates and immediately goes to some basic theorems, although no proofs are offered. The chapters are:
*) Fundamental ideas
*) Parallel lines
*) Triangles
*) Polygons
*) Perimeter and area
*) Similarity
*) Right triangles
*) Circles
*) Geometric solids
*) Coordinate geometry
There are a small number of exercises at the end of each chapter and a summary exam at the end of the book. Solutions to all exercises are included. If you need a fast, complete review of geometry, then this is an excellent selection. However, it has little value if you are trying to learn geometry.

Summary: Very handy little summary 2004-03-03
Comment: After several years in a corporate engineering job, I started moonlighting as a math tutor. The Cliff's Quick Review Guides are wonderful to have in my "back pocket" when I need to quickly look something up that is covered in dust in the "archives of my brain."

Summary: A Good Start for Geometry Review 2002-01-30
Comment: This is a helpful tool for practicing concepts of geometry, and stimulation of memory. However, it may not be helpful if you never had any experience with geometry.
