Supplementary mathematics/Geometry

From Wikibooks, open books for an open world

Geometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the shapes of all physical objects, spatial and volume relationships between different objects, spatial features around and calculating the volume and area of shapes. This science is one of the oldest branches of the great sciences of mathematics, which emerged in response to practical problems such as mapping and had an important application in life. The name geometry is derived from the Greek and Latin words meaning "earth measurement". Finally, it became clear that geometry should not be limited to the study of flat surfaces (plane geometry) and rigid three-dimensional objects (solid geometry) and found that even the most abstract thoughts and images can be represented and developed in geometric forms.
