LocusForge geometry lab — students exploring a triangle with an angle arc, a circle, and similar triangles using a compass and straightedge

Geometry is where “it looks true” becomes “here’s why it’s always true.” Conjecture the measure a theorem guarantees — an angle, a length, an area — commit to it, and a deterministic engine confirms the invariant and names the theorem that proves it. No jargon, nothing sent anywhere; a wrong conjecture is just where the proof starts.

Concept Kits — 16 kits of geometry

Constructions, angles & lines, triangle congruence, similarity, right-triangle trig, the unit circle, circle theorems, coordinate geometry, transformations, quadrilaterals, area, solids, conics, vectors, and proof — anchored to HS geometry. Hints when you want them; progress stays on this device.

Who you’ll meet

Not mascots — everyday geometers, each showing one idea in action. You’ll run into them across the lab and the kits.

  • Pell — builds figures with only compass and straightedge (constructions)
  • Vireo — proves triangles congruent from the givens (SSS/SAS/ASA)
  • Orin — reads right-triangle ratios and the unit circle (trig)
  • Osgood — relates inscribed and central angles (circle theorems)
  • Talise — proves it on the coordinate plane (distance, midpoint, slope)
  • Castell — moves figures by rigid motions and dilation (transformations)
  • Alba — slices solids and cones into cross-sections
  • Renard — turns "it looks true" into "here’s WHY" (proof)
  • Adisa — the mentor — conjecture from the drag, then prove it

How it works

LocusForge trusts you — it’s about reasoning from givens to a proof, not memorizing, and a wrong conjecture is just a place to learn. Every measure is computed by a small deterministic engine (no server, nothing sent anywhere). Your progress is saved only on this device: no accounts, no ads.
