Geometry is the branch of Mathematics that deals with the shape, size and position of a 2 dimension or 3 dimension figures. The area, volume , length of a shape can be found with the help of geometry.

Origin :- The word originates from the Ancient Greek word - geometria. Geo = Earth and Metrie = Measurement

Earlier the concept of geometry was related to field measurement that developed as an independent field and later many branches of geometry came into existence. Euclidean and Non Euclidean Geometry is the main branch of geometry.
