Beschreibung
We are surrounded by space and the shape of things. The very planet we live on is situated in a universe full of interesting stars, surrounded by other planets. All of them have dierent shapes and sizes and it is no wonder that shapes and sizes always attracted man. To understand the wonder of our world and appreciate them, man realised the importance of having knowledge of spatial use. For example, the areas related to space and the size and shape of things in it. Scientists realised that when we apply and understand the relationship between shapes and sizes we will be better prepared to use them in our everyday life. Geometry does exactly that because it provides the knowledge of how to deal with measurements and relationships of shapes. Even though, it is no longer at the forefront of mathematical sciences, Geometry is still used today by engineers, land surveyors and mappers when analysing spatial information about land and other natural resources. Historically speaking, however geometry dominated mathematics.
