520 _aGeometry falls under the domain of mathematics. It is concerned with the study of shape, size and the properties of space. Geometry is built on the fundamental concepts of points, lines, curves, planes, angles and symmetries and has applications across different branches of mathematics, in art, architecture and physics. Modern geometry can be classified into Euclidean geometry, differential geometry, topology and algebraic geometry, among others. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts in the field of geometry. It attempts to understand the multiple branches that fall under the discipline of geometry and how such concepts have practical applications. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
