## Geometry
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Geometry is the study of shapes and the space they exist in. This can be discussed in size, position, and properties of the shape. There are many subfields of geometry:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Euclidean geometry: The study of points, lines, planes, angles, triangles, congruence, similarity, solid figures, and circles.
|
||
|
|
Differential geometry: The use of calculus and linear algebra to study problems in geometry.
|
||
|
|
Topology: The study of properties of objects that are unchanged by continuous mappings.
|
||
|
|
Convex geometry: The study of convex shapes in Euclidean space and abstract analogues.
|
||
|
|
Algebraic geometry: The study of geometry through the use of multivariate polynomials and other techniques.
|
||
|
|
Discrete geometry: The study of the relative position of simple geometric objects, such as points, lines and circles.
