you see things and you "automatically" deduct how far they are.
this happens thanks to geometry. Your eyes are the base of a triangle. They see slightly different images, and have to focus on the object. The brain processes that information to compute and estimate of the distance (this gets trained from ages 0 to maybe 6 months).
for more distant objects, typically the brain uses size. But again, it's geometry that supports the assumption that when things are further away, they appear smaller.
so even w/o using any tools or building anything, you're using a lot of geometry in your daily life!

In construction of a house you use triangle info (Pythagorean theorem) in the making of the trusses for the roof. Rooms are rectangular as well as the house itself. Some entry ways are round or hexagonal (6 sided). And lots of other places in a house use geometry.

Jobs such as computer graphics, medical imaging, robotics, structural engineering, land surveying, engineering.
General stuff in life that you might use geometry for: building a skateboard ramp, figuring out how much carpet or paint to buy for a room, fitting a picture to a frame, etc.

It may not be obvious but you use it intrinsically when say parallel parking. Geometry is also useful when doing construction or anything that requires an exact measurement. Also it is useful for figuring out the strongest design.

You got us dude. All these years, its been a weed-out course of the slower students. So now prepare to be assimilated.
Actually, it depends on your career, if you are arcitech (sp?) a civil engineer, or a designer, you need the basics of geometry to build skyscrapers, bridges, etc.
You won't need it to flip burgers at a greasy grill. ;-) So study smart.

when we see any house we see the house we say that so nice but if you see, you can see some triangle shape housesand lots like that
