Welcome
Welcome to ProofWiki! Since you're new, you may want to check out the general help page. It's the best first stop to see how things are done (next to reading proofs, of course!). Please feel free to contribute to whichever area of mathematics interests you, either by adding new proofs, or fixing up existing ones. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me, or post your question on the questions page.

Here are some useful pages to help get you started:
 * Recent Changes - To keep up with what's new, and what's being added.
 * Main Page talk - This is where most of the main discussions regarding the direction of the site talk place. If you have any ideas, please share them!

Geometry Proofs
I am working on getting my geometry credit and I need help with writing proofs- I'm working with euclidean geometry, and I can never get the proofs right. constantly, my justifications are incorrect, or I skipped a step, or I just screw the whole thing. My test is coming up soon, and I will not be able to pass if I bomb the test. anybody got any tips? --Lexiqita 00:31, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Well, I will note that we are not an online math homework help service (see yahoo answers or math help forum). That said, I personally advise a two column method, with one column for equations and another for justifications. See Westwood's Puzzle for an example of a fairly comprehensive example. And of course, memorizing the theorems you are supposed to know wouldn't hurt either ;) --Cynic (talk) 01:06, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
