I am entering my sophomore year of high school, because of how often I changed schools I never took geometry, this summer I took Pre Calc and am taking calc BC in sophomore year. This means I will have never taken a dedicated geometry class, I want to go through a textbook so that I can be prepared for things like the SAT/ACT and future math classes I will be taking that might expect students to have taken geometry. Any recommendations for textbooks, preferably nothing too expensive

  • Art of Problem Solving has a good Geometry textbook, but it's probably a lot harder than what you would need for SAT/ACT. (Certainly many of the problems in this book are much, much more challenging than the simple problems you would find in a standard curriculum.)

  • Thanks, It's not like im getting graded when I mess a problem up so I'm fine with the difficulty, I'll look into it.

  • The text Geometry by Jurgensen, Brown, and Jurgensen is useful. You can save money by renting it.

How to combine Bézier curves to a surface?

圖片
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite My aim is to smooth the terrain in a video game. Therefore I contrived an algorithm that makes use of Bézier curves of different orders. But this algorithm is defined in a two dimensional space for now. To shift it into the third dimension I need to somehow combine the Bézier curves. Given two curves in each two dimensions, how can I combine them to build a surface? I thought about something like a curve of a curve. Or maybe I could multiply them somehow. How can I combine them to cause the wanted behavior? Is there a common approach? In the image you can see the input, on the left, and the output, on the right, of the algorithm that works in a two dimensional space. For the real application there is a three dimensional input. The algorithm relays only on the adjacent tiles. Given these it will define the control points of the mentioned Bézier curve. Additionally it marks one side of the curve as inside t
