A High School First Course in Euclidean Plane Geometry
This is a high school geometry course by Charles Aboughantous. It is based on Euclid's five postulates and his most common theorems. It promotes the art and the skills of developing logical proofs. Practice problems are included at the end of each chapter in three groups: geometric construction problems, computational problems, and theorematical problems. The answers to the computational problems are included at the end of the book. The solutions manual of the book contains detailed solutions to all the problems in the book. It is free to home schooled students upon proof of purchase of the book. Samples are found at https://home.earthlink.net/~draboughantous/geometry.html
