what does geometry mean

A three sided closed figure is called a triangle. Here side means a line segmen..

Axiom is a statement that is accepted as true. It does not require any proo..

In a triangle when we refer to an angle, we mean the angle bounded by the two sides. The three angles lie in the interior region of the triangle. These angles are called the interior angles of the triangl..

Introduction - The word 'geometry' is derived from the Greek words 'geo' meaning 'earth' and 'metron', meaning 'measuring'. Geometry originated when man felt the need to measure his land. Ancient Egyptians were perhaps the first people to study ..

We are familiar with plane figures bounded by straight line segments as sides. They are known as Polygons. Polygon is a word of Greek origin. It means figure with many angles implying many side..

Introduction - We have studied so far about equalities in a triangle. In an isosceles triangle two of the sides are equal. In an equilateral triangle all the sides are equal. But there exist several situations where we need to compare quantities which are not equal. This gives rise to the concept o..

Triangle - A three sided closed figure is called a triangle. Here side means a line segment. ABC is a triangle. BC, CA, AB are its sides. They can be denoted by small letters a, b and c. The capital letters A, B and C denote the vertices of the triangl..

We are familiar with plane figures bounded by straight line segments as sides. They are known as Polygons . Polygon is a word of Greek origin. It means figure with many angles implying many sides. Squares, rectangles and other four-sided geometric figures formed by the union of four line ..

The equation of a line contains two arbitrary constants. This means two geometrical conditions must be given to obtain the equation of a line. If a line passes through the intersection of two lines (given) only one geometrical condition is available. \ L 1 + l L 2 = 0 contains o..
