Geometry (Greek; geo = earth, metria = measure) arose as the field of knowledge dealing with
spatial relationships.

2. What does geometry deal with?

Geometry arose as the field of knowledge dealing with spatial relationships

3. What was the contribution of Greek mathematicians to the science of geometry?

They expanded the range of geometry to many new kinds of figures, curves, surfaces, and solids;
they changed its methodology from trial-and-error to logical deduction; they recognized that
geometry studies “external forms”, or abstractions, of which physical objects are only
approximations; and they developed the idea of an “axiomatic theory” which, for more than 2000
years, was regarded to be the ideal paradigm for all scientific theories.
