How did the ancient Egyptian and Greeks differ in their treatment or use of geometry?

Question

Can anyone tell me their differences in their usage of Geometry??

Answer 1

Egyptians used it mostly empirically. (They knew that the formulae were correct, but there were no formal proofs or theory)

The Greeks were the first to put a solid mathematical foundation (axioms, theorems, proofs, lemma, etc.). This allowed them to go beyond the simple geometric problems (say, find the area of a rectangular plot) and prove more difficult problems.
