He was a Greek mathematician and is probably best known for his work Elements. Since little is known about the personal life of Euclid‚ it is difficult to do a biography on him. His chief work‚ entitled Elements‚ is a comprehensive essay on mathematics. It includes 13 volumes that entail such subjects as plane geometry‚ dealing with the properties of flat surfaces and of planar figures‚ such as the triangle; proportion in general‚ a particular kind of relation between groups of numbers or quantities;
