Euclidean Geometry and its Postulates
Euclid’s geometry, also called “Euclidean geometry,” is the study of geometry based on terms like “points,” “lines,” and “planes” that are not described. In other words, it studies flat and three-dimensional shapes and how they relate to aspects of lines, points, and surfaces. Euclid initiated axioms and postulates for these solid shapes in his book, which assisted in defining geometric patterns. Euclid’s geometry covers two programmes — plane geometry and solid geometry.
Euclidean geometry is an axiomatic system, meaning that all the theorems come from a small number of simple statements. Euclidean geometry is called “plane geometry” about points, lines, angles, squares, triangles, and other shapes. It looks at how things work and how they connect.
