Geometric Transformations III : Affine and Projective Transformations /

This book is the sequel to Geometric Transformations I and II, volumes 8 and 21 in this series, but can be studies independently. It is devoted to the treatment of affine and projective transformations of the plane these transformations include the congruencies and similarities investigated in the p...
