    segment PQ: In Euclidean geometry the perpendicular distance between the rays remains equal to the distance from P to Q as we move to the right. However‚ in the early nineteenth century two alternative geometries were proposed. In hyperbolic geometry (from the Greek hyperballein‚ "to exceed") the distance between the rays increases. In elliptic geometry (from the Greek elleipein‚ "to fall short") the distance decreases and the rays eventually meet. These non-Euclidean geometries were later incorporated

    Module one- Lesson 01.01 The terms point‚ line‚ and plane are referred to as undefined. When you write the definition of these terms‚ you have to rely on other terms that need defining. Point- In general‚ a point is a location. Because points have no size‚ you can say they have no dimension. Line- a "stream" of points that has no width or depth. You can also think of a line as points lined up next to each other that go on forever in opposite directions. Because you can measure the distance

    EUCLID: The Man Who Created a Math Class Euclid of Alexandria was born in about 325 BC. He is the most prominent mathematician of antiquity best known for his dissertation on mathematics. He was able to create "The Elements" which included the composition of many other famous mathematicians together. He began exploring math because he felt that he needed to compile certain things and fix certain postulates and theorems. His book included‚ many of Eudoxus’ theorems‚ he perfected many of Theaetetus’s

    Geometry (Greek γεωμετρία; geo = earth‚ metria = measure)‚ Its beginnings can be traced in ancient Egypt or early or before 1700 B.C. Due to necessity‚ every time the Nile River inundated and deposited fertile soil along the bank‚ the early Egyptian had to solve the problem of size and boundaries of land along the Nile River. Changes happened in the contour of the land had caused confusion among landowners. So a system of making boundaries‚ measuring lengths and areas had to be discovered

    Quadrilateral just means "four sides"  (quad means four‚ lateral means side). Any four-sided shape is a Quadrilateral. But the sides have to be straight‚ and it has to be2-dimensional. A quadrilateral is defined as any two-dimensional‚ four-sided shape that has four vertices with interior angles that equal 360 degrees. There are several quadrilateral variations that include parallelograms‚ rectangles‚ rhombuses‚ squares‚ trapezoids‚ and kites. Quadrilaterals * Parallelogram – A parallelogram

    ------------------------------------------------- Polynomial long division From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia In algebra‚ polynomial long division is an algorithm for dividing a polynomial by another polynomial of the same or lower degree‚ a generalised version of the familiar arithmetic technique called long division. It can be done easily by hand‚ because it separates an otherwise complex division problem into smaller ones. Sometimes using a shorthand version called synthetic division is
