Euclidean geometry is the study of plane and solid figures on the basis of axioms and theorems employed by the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid. The term refers to the plane and solid geometry commonly taught in secondary school. Euclidean geometry is
This lesson introduces Euclidean Geometry. It details the history and development of Euclid's work, its concepts, statements, and examples.
Undefined Terms. In geometry,point, line, and planeare considered undefined terms because they are only explained using examples and descriptions. Name the points, Lines, & Planes. Collinear points are points. that lie on the same line. Are circles Euclidean? This article is about circles in E...
Traditional teaching of geometry has been strongly influenced by the Euclid-Hilbert foundation of geometry. In his refinement of Euclid's axiomatic system Hilbert 1 used as undefined terms: to be a point, to be a line, to be a plane, the incidence relation, the betweenness relation, and the...
