Finding the Minimal Path to Put Out a Fire

A camper (at position A) must quickly put out a campfire (at position B). The river is represented by the horizontal line segment CD passing through point P. Where should point P be positioned on the river so that the camper will travel the shortest (minimal) path from point A, to the river at po...

Flatland: The TI-Book

One of the best geometry books of all time is Flatland. Written over a century ago, there is no copyright for this book and you can find it available free as a podcast or a text file. However, nothing beats a TI-book with nicely produced diagrams.
