  1. Allexperts Geometry Q&A - Volunteer tutors help you work through your geometry problems for free.
  2. Bette Veteto's Homepage - History of Mathematics, very strong on geometry.
  3. Bob's Pages - A collection of interactive geometry applets. Topics include polyhedra, Poncelet's porism, Soddy's hexlet, Mandelbrot set, Steiner porism, Pappus's chain, Repulsion polyhedra and stereo pictures.
  4. Center of Points in 2- or Higher-dimensional Space - It provides important formulations for finding a center of points in 2 or higher dimensional space. It can be used in drawing delauney triagulation and voronoi diagram in two or higher dimensions. It also describes how many points are required in defining a center in n-dimensional space.
  5. Conjectures Produced by the Program Graffiti - Graffiti is a computer program that makes conjectures in mathematics and chemistry. Links to the conjectures and bibliography.
  6. Cuboid and Cube Surface Distances - A java applet with substantial analysis related to distances on a rectangular box.
  7. Diamond Theory - Plato tells how Socrates helped Meno's slave boy "remember" the geometry of a diamond. Twenty-four centuries later, this geometry has a new theorem.
  8. Encyclopedia of Triangle Centers - By Clark Kimberling. Over 1000 triangle centres in a searchable compilation with diagrams.
  9. The Entropy Reduction Laboratory by Karl-Dietrich Neubert - Discusses double shell structured periodic systems, platonic spheres, molecular and crystal structures, and FlashSort algorithms.

  11. Euclid's Proof of the Pythagorean Theorem- An animated proof of Pythagorean's Theorem.
  12. Fundamentals of Geometry - Free online book on geometry in pdf format. Contains material not easily found elsewhere from detailed exposition of elementary absolute geometry based on Hilbert's axioms to more advanced topics.
  13. Geometry of the Sphere- Examines the incidence relations between great circles, the notion of angle on the sphere, and the areas of certain fundamental regions on the sphere, culminating with the area of spherical triangles.
  14. A Gallery of Interactive On-Line Geometry - At the Geometry Center.
  15. Geometric Group Theory - Information and resources about geometric group theory and low-dimensional topology. People, groups, meetings, links.
