Geometry is a branch of mathematics that is concerned with the properties of
configurations of geometric objects - points, (straight) lines, and circles
being the most basic of these. Although the word geometry derives from the
Greek geo (earth) and metron (measure), which points to its practical roots.

The introduction of coordinates by René Descartes and the concurrent
development of algebra marked a new stage for geometry, since geometric
figures, such as plane curves, could now be represented analytically, i.e.,
with functions and equations. This played a key role in the emergence of
infinitesimal calculus in the 17th century. Furthermore, the theory of
perspective showed that there is more to geometry than just the metric
properties of figures: perspective is the origin of projective geometry. The
subject of geometry was further enriched by the study of intrinsic structure
of geometric objects that originated with Euler and Gauss and led to the
creation of topology and differential geometry.

When taking geometry, spatial reasoning and problem solving skills will be
developed. Geometry is linked to many other topics in math, specifically
measurement and is used daily by architects, engineers, architects, physicists
and land surveyors just to name a few. In the early years of geometry the
focus tends to be on shapes and solids, then moves to properties and
relationships of shapes and solids and as abstract thinking progresses,
geometry becomes much more about analysis and reasoning.

The application will be updated on the regular basis to include the new rules
and the terms being introduced by new generations of mathematicians.

Going further, the application has a potential to include the links to the
informative websites, to integrate with the social networking websites and
thus to become a complete Geometry bible.
