I'm tutoring a geometry student, and I've noticed a glaring flaw in her textbook.

The book will show proofs for most theorems, however, it does not then have more than a couple of proof questions in the homework, and none of those show the answers. In essense, the book does not provide a mechanism for a student to practice their skills at doing a proof, and then checking their work. Obviously, proofs are showing up on quizzes and tests, and I'd like to provide her with some materials she can work with while studying outside our tutoring sessions.

Is there an online resource that has selected geometry proof problems, along with an answer key for a student to check their work?

what you should do instead is to get (from the library) other books on the subject.

a good way to learn proof is this:
read the proof until you understand it,
and then, without looking at the book, reproduce the same proof....

it is not memorizing but that way you understand why you need to do whatever steps are required.

If you type in geometry proofs you will find several web pages although they do not seem to be tutorial type pages. I would recommend buying a book or checking one out of the library. Schaum's outline series has worked problems as well as additional problems.
