Exploring Hyperbolic Geometry
Abstract
The author describes an investigative approach to some basic concepts of hyperbolic geometry for high school students. As undergraduate students, most teachers have had a proof-based understanding of hyperbolic geometry. With the use of WebSketchpad, a free on-line dynamic geometry application, students and teachers can experiment with ideas from hyperbolic geometry that lay a foundation for the proofs.
