Bubble Geometry
Have you ever seen a square bubble?
Experiment with bubbles. Create bubble wands out of found objects (straws, pipe cleaners, strawberry baskets and coathangers) and have your own bubble festival.
How can you catch a bubble?
The secret is the soap solution. Try catching a bubble with a dry hand versus a wet hand. Which lasts longer? This activity is included in the Shapes cluster developed with K-2 teachers at the Ross School in San Francisco. What could you use to make lots of tiny bubbles? How could you measure a bubble? Why do bubbles fall towards the ground?

What is Geometry?
Geometry is the study of shapes and configurations. It attempts to understand and classify spaces in various mathematical contexts. For a space with lots of symmetries, the study naturally focuses on properties which are invariant (remaining the same) under the symmetries.
Euclidean Geometry
An example is the study of flat space, or Euclidean geometry. Between every pair of points there is a unique line segment, which is the shortest curve between those two points. These line segments can be extended to lines. Lines are infinitely long in both directions and, for every pair of points on the line, the segment of the line between them is the shortest curve that can be drawn between them. Furthermore, if you have a line and a point which isn't on the line, there is a second line running through the point, which is parallel to the first line (i.e. never hits it). All of these ideas can be described by a drawing on a flat piece of paper. From the laws of Euclidean Geometry, we get the famous theorem of Pythagoras, and all the formulas you learn in trigonometry. In Euclidean geometry, you also learned how to find the circumference and area of a circle.

65. Non-Euclidean Geometry
Saccheri then studied the hypothesis of the acute angle and derived many theorems of nonEuclidean geometry without realising what he was doing.

Geometry and topology index History Topics Index
Version for printing
In about 300 BC Euclid wrote The Elements, a book which was to become one of the most famous books ever written. Euclid stated five postulates on which he based all his theorems:
  • To draw a straight line from any point to any other.
  • To produce a finite straight line continuously in a straight line.
  • To describe a circle with any centre and distance.
  • That all right angles are equal to each other.
  • That, if a straight line falling on two straight lines make the interior angles on the same side less than two right angles, if produced indefinitely, meet on that side on which are the angles less than the two right angles.
    It is clear that the fifth postulate is different from the other four. It did not satisfy Euclid and he tried to avoid its use as long as possible - in fact the first 28 propositions of The Elements are proved without using it. Another comment worth making at this point is that Euclid , and many that were to follow him, assumed that straight lines were infinite. Proclus (410-485) wrote a commentary on The Elements where he comments on attempted proofs to deduce the fifth postulate from the other four, in particular he notes that

Geometry was extremely important to ancient societies and was used for surveying, astronomy, navigation, and building. Geometry, as we know it is actually known as Euclidean geometry which was written well over 2000 years ago in Ancient Greece by Euclid, Pythagoras, Thales, Plato and Aristotle just to mention a few. The most fascinating and accurate geometry text was written by Euclid, and was called Elements. Euclid's text has been used for over 2000 years! G eometry is the study of angles and triangles, perimeter, area and volume. It differs from algebra in that one develops a logical structure where mathematical relationships are proved and applied. In part 1, you will learn about the basic terms associated with Geometry.

    Overview Partners Programme Positions Activities Project overview Developing powerful methods taken from geometry to study the arithmetical properties of algebraic equations
    Algebraic equations and their arithmetical properties have interested mankind since antiquity. One has only to think of the works of Pythagoras and Diophantus, which were a milestone in their time. For many centuries such problems have fascinated both serious mathematicians (Fermat, Gauss, ...) and amateurs alike. However, developments in recent years have transformed the subject into one of the central areas of mathematical research, which has relations with, or applications to, virtually every mathematical field, as well as an impact to contemporary everyday life (for example, the use of prime numbers and factorisation for encoding "smart" cards). The classical treatment of equations by analysis and geometry in the realm of complex numbers in this century has found a counterpart, in the similar theories over finite and p -adic fields, which have particular significance for arithmetic questions. The study of certain functions encoding arithmetic information and generalising the Riemann zeta-function (

    51: Geometry
    Introduction
    Geometry is studied from many perspectives! This large area includes classical Euclidean geometry and synthetic (non-Euclidean) geometries; analytic geometry; incidence geometries (including projective planes); metric properties (lengths and angles); and combinatorial geometries such as those arising in finite group theory. Many results in this area are basic in either the sense of simple, or useful, or both! There is separate page for constructibility questions (i.e. compass-and-straightedge constructions). There is a separate page for a triangulation problem (in the geographers' sense, not the topologists'). Included on that page is information about determining location by distances from fixed points.
    History
    A bibliography (and some related web sites) on the history of geometry is available from David Joyce. See the article on NonEuclidean geometry at St Andrews.
    Applications and related fields
    As appealing as questions on simple geometry are, they are often mathematically speaking rather trivial, so we have little material here. Some of the meatier issues in "geometry" are easily classified somewhere else. Thus you'll have to look elsewhere for topics on
