    Geometry is important for many reasons. It is used in almost all bases of life‚ including shopping‚ driving‚ work‚ and especially school. It is used most all the time too‚ not just every now and then‚ more like all the time. Geometry is used while shopping at the store. You use it to pick out an item that is not dented.

    Euclidean Geometry Geometry was thoroughly organized in about 300 BC‚ when the Greek mathematician Euclid gathered what was known at the time‚ added original work of his own‚ and arranged 465 propositions into 13 books‚ called ’Elements’. The books covered not only plane and solid geometry but also much of what is now known as algebra‚ trigonometry‚ and advanced arithmetic. Through the ages‚ the propositions have been rearranged‚ and many of the proofs are different‚ but the basic idea presented

    Euclid “Father of Geometry” Euclid is a Greek mathematician. He was also known as Euclid of Alexandria‚ “The Father of Geometry”. Little is known of his life other than the fact that he taught at Alexandria‚ being associated with the school that grew up there in the late 4th century B.C. It is believed that he taught at Plato’s academy in Athens‚ Greece. Most history states that he was a kind‚ patient‚ and fair man. One story that exposes something of his personality‚ involves

    We use Euclidean and Non-Euclidean geometry in our everyday use. In many ways they are similar and different. There are similarities and differences in Euclidean geometry and spherical geometry‚ Euclid’s fifth postulate applies to both forms‚ and it is used every day in astronomy. Euclidean geometry is the study of flat space‚ and can be easily drawn on a piece of paper. Non-Euclidean geometry is any form of geometry that uses a postulate that is equivalent to the negation of Euclidean parallel postulate

    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

    Descriptive Geometry “Drawing is the language of design‚ and if drawing can be thought of as a language then‚ descriptive geometry is the grammar of this language.” Definition: Descriptive geometry is the branch of geometry which allows the representation of three-dimensional objects in two dimensions‚ by using a specific set of procedures. The resulting techniques are important for engineering‚ architecture‚ design and in art. The theoretical basis for descriptive geometry is provided

    have conducted my research through interview with someone familiar with construction and development as how geometry is used in these fields. The first step to development is to survey the property in order to document and draw the bounds and land surface shapes. The property will be represented by various geometry elements such as points‚ lines‚ arcs‚ circles‚ and other defined geometry shapes. Surveyors use scope on tripods witch use projection of line Referenced point on a stick in order to

    robot kinematics‚ require a unified methodology to identify the variables of a robot’s or manipulator’s joints and links. Co-ordinate Frames Robotic kinematics depends on the use of right handed cartesian frames of reference. Manipulator Geometry A manipulator consists of two types of joints‚ connected by a link. Link A link is a solid mechanical structure which connects two joints. The main purpose of a link is to maintain a fixed relationship between the joints at its ends. The

    Geometry is considered one of the most elementary sciences known to man. It is the branch of mathematics concerned with the properties and relations of points‚ lines‚ surfaces‚ solids‚ and higher dimensional analogs. Geometry is used everywhere around us‚ even in places many people would not suspect it to be used. For example‚ geometry is used in football when constructors want to build a football stadium; it is used when creating the football‚ as well as‚ when a coach is drawing out plays on
