Geometry
is a part of mathematics concerned with questions of size, shape, and
relative position of figures and with properties of space. Geometry is one
of the oldest sciences. Initially a body of practical knowledge concerning
lengths, areas, and volumes, in the third century B.C., geometry was put
into an axiomatic form by Euclid, whose treatment - Euclidean geometry - set
a standard for many centuries to follow.

Length:
is
the long dimension of any object. The length of a thing is the distance
between its ends, its linear extent as measured from end to end.
Area:a quantity expressing the two-dimensional size
of a defined part of a surface, typically a region bounded by a closed
curve.
Volumes: The amount of space an object occupies. |
