Geometry is the study of shape and size. Geometry was probably first developed to measure the earth and its objects.

The word "geometry" geo + metry means "earth + to measure." Surveying land, designing buildings, and measuring commodities were probably important early on in people's history.

Today, geometry is useful in the study of chemistry, astronomy, and other sciences. A knowledge of basic geometry is useful in everyday life too. It is useful for measuring and designing. For example, carpeting a room, painting a house, building a picture frame, etc.

Geometry is the one subject that I nearly failed in high school. I mean, who cares why one triangle is the same as the other one?

a science (related to math) that studies the geometrical figures (circle, quadrilateral, triangle, etc...) and the relationships between this ones; with angle measuring, sides comparison, and lots and lots of theorems.
