Guidance on posting homework help type questions on r/geometry

24 Upvotes

r/geometry is a subreddit for the discussion and enjoyment of Geometry, it is not a place to post screenshots of online course material or assignments seeking help.

Homework style questions can, in limited circumstances, encourage discussion in line with the subreddit's aim.

The following guidance is for those looking to post homework help type questions:

  1. Show effort.

As a student there is a pathway for you to obtain help. This is normally; Personal notes > Course notes/Course textbook > Online resources (websites) > Teacher/Lecturer > Online forum (r/geometry).

Your post should show, either in the post or comments, evidence of your personal work to solve the problem, ideally with reference to books or online materials.

  1. Show an attempt.

Following on from the previous point, if you are posting a question show your working. You can post multiple images so attach a photograph of your working. If it is a conceptual question then have an attempt at explaining the concept. One of the best ways of learning is to attempt the problem.

  1. Be Specific

Your post should be about a specific issue in a problem or concept and your post should highlight this.

  1. Encourage discussion

Your post should encourage discussion about the problem or concept and not aim for single word or numeric answers.

  1. Use the Homework Help flair

The homework help flair is intended to differentiate these type of questions from general discussion and posts on r/geometry

If your post does not follow these guidelines then it will, in all but the most exceptional circumstances, be removed under Rule 4.

If you have an comments or questions regarding these guidelines please comment below.

Point, Line, Plane

I am a veteran math teacher (36 years) but am teaching Geometry Honors this coming year (first time teaching Geometry AND any honors course).

My question: how do YOU introduce the concepts "point, line, plane"?

I feel like this is one of the most important concepts in Geometry and leading up to all the different calculus related content that most of these students will eventually take. I want to introduce it in such a way that really makes them think and understand and be able to apply these concepts to the rest of what we will be doing throughout this course.

Any and all ideas will be very greatly appreciated!

# Foundation of Order

**Did you know?**

The square is one of humanity's oldest symbols of **order and stability**.

Because all four sides and angles are equal, many cultures associated it with balance, fairness, and permanence.

You'll find squares in:
πŸ› Ancient architecture
πŸ™ City planning
πŸ“ Mathematics
🎨 Modern design

**Fun Fact:**
Chessboards, floor tiles, and QR codes all rely on the efficiency of the square.

**Question:**
Where do you notice squares most in everyday life?
