Definitions and meanings of "Geometry"

What do we mean by geometry?

The mathematics of the properties, measurement, and relationships of points, lines, angles, surfaces, and solids. noun

A system of geometry. noun

A geometry restricted to a class of problems or objects. noun

A book on geometry. noun

Configuration; arrangement. noun

A surface shape. noun

A physical arrangement suggesting geometric forms or lines. noun

A text-book of geometry. noun

Modern projective geometry, commonly written in German Geometrie der Lage, to distinguish it from . noun

Higher synthetic geometry in general. noun

The art of geometrical drawing. noun

Geometry of three dimensions. noun

The oldest classification of geometry is , that in which it is divided according to the method of logical procedure, namely into synthetic and analytic, the method of geometrical analysis having been invented or taught by Plato. In modern times this classification intertwines with another, namely , that which is based on the mental instrument or equipment used, giving: pure or synthetic geometry; rational; descriptive; projective; algebraic, algorithmic, analytical, Cartesian, or coördinate; differential, infinitesimal, natural, or intrinsic; enumerative or denumerative. Some of these are subdivided on the same principle, as: (α) geometry of the ruler or straight-edge; (β) of the ruler and sect-carrier; (γ) of the ruler and unitsect-carrier; (δ) of the compasses; of the ruler and compasses; (ζ) of linkages. Further divisions are: By dimensionality: geometry on the straight or on the line; two-dimensional geometry; (α) plane geometry; (β) spherics; (γ) pseudo-spherics; tri-dimensional geometry: (α) geometry of planes; (β) solid geometry; (γ) spherics; four-dimensional geometry: (α) geometry of straight?; (β) of hyperspace; n-dimeimonal geometry. By elements: point geometry; straight or line; plane; point, straight, and plane; straightest or geodesic; geometry of the sphere; of other elements, By subject-matter: pure descriptive, pure projective, or pure positional geometry, or geometry of position; topologic geometry; metric geometry; geometry of curves; of surfaces; of solids; of hyper-solids; of numbers; of motion or kinematic. By assumptions made, omitted, or denied: Euclidean geometry; non-Euclidean; metageometry, or pan-geometry; finite geometry; semi-Euclidean; non-Legendrian; Archimedean; non-Archimedean; non-Arguesian; non-Pascalian. By the kind of space or universe of the geometry: Euclidean or parabolic geometry; Bolyaian, Lobachevskian, Bolyai-Lobachevskian, absolute, or hyperbolic; Riemannian, spherical, or double elliptic; Killing's, single elliptic, or simple elliptic; Clifford's or Clifford-Kleinian. By the complexity or difficulty of the part treated: elementary geometry; higher, By the period of its development: ancient or the antique geometry; modern; recent, of the triangle, or the Lemoine-Brocard. noun

That branch of mathematics which investigates the relations, properties, and measurement of solids, surfaces, lines, and angles; the science which treats of the properties and relations of magnitudes; the science of the relations of space. noun

A treatise on this science. noun

That branch of mathematical analysis which has for its object the analytical investigation of the relations and properties of geometrical magnitudes. noun

The branch of mathematics dealing with spatial relationships.

(often qualified in combination) A mathematical system that deals with spatial relationships and that is built on a particular set of axioms; a subbranch of geometry which deals with such a system or systems.

The observed or specified spatial attributes of an object, etc.

1-the most terrible class ever invented. 2-a great wayy to fuck up your GPA 3-another way for teachers to make you feel like an even bigger dumbass then you really are 4-the most pointless form of math ever invented! Urban Dictionary

The class i don't understand for shit Urban Dictionary

The most pointless form of math ever devised. it involves shapes, planes, and lots of proofs. has no real use, although teachers like to say it does. is no help to anyone. torture. Urban Dictionary

Something that makes high school students like me get pissed off. Urban Dictionary

A useless subject designed to prepare you for an even more useless subject, trigonometry. Urban Dictionary

A form of mathematics that has few real life applications apart from architecture, contruction, physics, astronomy, and other mathmatical sciences. Urban Dictionary

A course you are required to take in high school, usually after Algebra. Extremely boring, not to mention difficult for most people. You will never have to use the things you learned about in class in your future career. In other words, GEOMETRY IS A ROYAL WASTE OF TIME. Urban Dictionary

1.) The most horrible class ever devised 2.) A chance to fire up your ipod during school and jam for an hour 3.) Can you say text messaging! 4.) When Geo- meaning really hard and Metry- meaning there is no way you can pass the class, come together and ruin your GPA Urban Dictionary

1. n. An exotic form of torture 2. v. To impose geometric reasoning upon one's student or advisary. Urban Dictionary

The most awful class you will ever take. it's so pointless, there is no use for it in the real world. it is basically torture and it's guarenteed to bring down your beloved GPA. even if you were great in algebra, it's still very easy to fail this miserable class. Urban Dictionary

The word "geometry" in example sentences

If you cram twice as many photosites onto a sensor, that halves (quarters? my geometry is a bit weak) the size of each photosite. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Thales kept the Egyptian name “earth measurement” for his mathematics, but being Greek, used the Greek word geometry. ❋ Leonard Mlodinow (2001)

The best known of these men was Euclid, who perfected the mathematics which we call geometry, and Ptolemy, whose ideas about geography and the shape and size of the globe Columbus carefully studied before he set out on his great voyage. ❋ Elbert Jay Benton (N/A)

Gautier based his refutation of Newton in geometry, as Castel had; a style of argument typical of Jesuit science in the eighteenth century and especially in France. 17 The techniques and terminology common to mathematical proofs are the basis of Gautier's explanation, although, as Étienne Montucla complained in the Journal œconomique, his understanding of geometry is even less exact than his understanding of Newtonian optics. 18 The foundations are similar, but he draws, as part of his proofs, more analogies to interpretations or beliefs common among painters. ❋ Unknown (2006)

Procedural geometry is quite a wide field, do you plan to specialise in procedural people, environments (trees etc) or something else? ❋ Unknown (2009)

Atoms come together to form compounds; the geometry is determined by the orientations of the chemical bonds, which are mergers of electron orbitals. ❋ Unknown (2009)

We can explain them, but to do so requires abandoning the faith that Euclidian geometry is the right model, the notion of it as an essential truth about reality. ❋ Hal Duncan (2009)

The point about geometry is roughly analogous with the principle of universality: the laws of geometry are universal principles that no bridge can do without. ❋ Unknown (2009)

I am suggesting that paths through the four dimensional spacetime are really real and the geometry is such that some paths between two locations in spacetime are shorter than others. ❋ Unknown (2008)

If spacetime geometry is really real, then it is real for QM experiments too. ❋ Unknown (2008)

This leads to the realization that spacetime geometry is actually twisted inside out from our normal perception. ❋ Unknown (2008)

The idea of simply letting gravity do the job for you by dint of some basic geometry is what clever design is all about. ❋ Peter Ashley (2008)

I actually agree that Minkowski geometry is more than just math: it is a physical model of our spacetime, tested and found accurate. ❋ Unknown (2008)
