Hyperbolic and
non-euclidean geometry 6. HYPERBOLIC AND NONEUCLIDEAN GEOMETRY
6.7 Similar triangles
6.8 Consistency of hyperbolic geometry 6.9 The Beltrami-Klein model What is Non-Euclidean Geometry? Geometry that differs from the Euclidean system. Developed by exploring alternatives to Euclid’s parallel postulate.
Hyperbolic Geometry Elliptic Geometry Similar Triangles in Hyperbolic Geometry
THEOREM 6.2. In hyperbolic geometry if
two triangles are similar, they are congruent. (In other words, AAA is a valid criterion for congruence of triangles.) There is no scaling in hyperbolic space; similarity implies congruence Why Are Triangles Congruent in Hyperbolic Geometry? Angle Sum Property: Inhyperbolic geometry, all triangles have an angle sum of less than 180°. Example: Two hyperbolic triangles, both with angles 60°, 50°, and 40°, are identical in shape and size. Unlike in Euclidean geometry, they cannot vary in size while keeping the same angles. Consistency of Hyperbolic Geometry Hyperbolic geometry contradicts the Euclidean parallel postulate by allowing multiple parallels through a point. Consistency of Hyperbolic Geometry Proof of Consistency Eugenio Beltrami (1868): Used differential geometry to show hyperbolic geometry is consistent if Euclidean geometry is consistent.
FelixKlein: Built on Beltrami's work using
projective geometry, further validating hyperbolic geometry's logical soundness. The Beltrami-Klein Model
A visual and structural way to represent hyperbolic
geometry within a Euclidean context. Thismodel makes it easier to study and understand hyperbolic concepts by representing hyperbolic lines and points within a boundary circle in Euclidean space. The Beltrami-Klein Model
Points in hyperbolic space are represented as points
inside a fixed circle (known as the absolute or boundary circle) in the Euclidean plane. Hyperbolic lines are represented by chords of the circle, which are open line segments within the circle. Importantly, these chords exclude their endpoints, which lie on the circle's boundary. The Beltrami-Klein Model
1. Hyperbolic Lines: In the Beltrami-Klein model, a
hyperbolic line is represented by a chord within the circle. If you have two points, A and B, within the boundary circle, the line connecting A and B is the segment of the chord that joins these points but does not include the endpoints where it intersects the boundary circle. Hyperbolic lines are represented by chords of the circle, which are open line segments within the circle. Importantly, these chords exclude their endpoints, which lie on the circle's boundary.

The Beltrami-Klein Model 3. Triangles and Angle Sum: Consider a hyperbolic triangle within the Beltrami-Klein model, formed by connecting three points inside the boundary circle using hyperbolic lines (chords). The angle sum of this triangle will always be less than 180 degrees, which aligns with the fundamental properties of hyperbolic geometry. 2. The Beltrami-Klein model serves as a powerful tool to illustrate hyperbolic properties and supports the notion that hyperbolic geometry is a consistent and valid alternative to Euclidean geometry. Although the model distorts angles, it provides an intuitive visualization of hyperbolic lines and the concept of multiple parallels. What is importance of curriculum interpretation?
It is crucial for educators to accurately
interpret the curriculum to ensure it is delivered effectively, meets educational standards, and addresses the diverse needs of students. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING
