How do I learn geometry?

Also, let's talk about geometry.

What kind of geometry?

>> No.8798802

I dunno, new into the topic.

how do I learn it?

learn what

euclidean geometry, hyperbolic geometry. differential geometry, algebraic geometry, symplectic geometry, interuniversal geometry ?!?!?!

what part of being new to the topic you didn't get?

>> No.8798819

>>8798813
You still need to specify what type. What math do you already know?

>> No.8798821

>>8798819
basic arithmetic.

going through wildberger videos and being in the euclidean ones.

This book is very good for an introduction to basic geometry w/ a viewpoint towards higher math:

Also you will pick up a bit of Abstract Algebra in chapter 3.

Kiselev's Geometry: Book I. Planimetry & Book II. Stereometry
Euclid's Elements of Geometry Books 1-6
Geometry Revisited by Coxeter

The Ramanujan method. Do all the exercises in the text by SL Looney

>> No.8800261

If you don't know shit about shit, then read Coxeter - Geometry Revisited. It has zero prerequisites beyond basic algebra and trigonometry and takes you on a tour through classical geometry (it's not an easy ride, but it's very pretty).
Once you know more (basically groups), you will benefit from reading Berger - Geometry I and II

Start with polygons.
