What is geometry?

Q: What is geometry?



A: Geometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the size, shapes, positions and dimensions of objects.

Q: What types of shapes can we see or make?



A: We can only see or make flat (2D) or solid (3D) shapes.

Q: Who is able to study shapes that are beyond 3D?



A: Mathematicians (people who study math) are able to study shapes that are 4D, 5D, 6D, and so on.

Q: What are some examples of simple shapes in flat geometry?



A: Squares, circles and triangles are some of the simplest shapes in flat geometry.

Q: What are some examples of simple shapes in solid geometry?



A: Cubes, cylinders, cones and spheres are simple shapes in solid geometry.

Q: Can we see or make shapes that are beyond 3D?



A: No, we can't see or make shapes that are beyond 3D, but mathematicians are able to study and imagine them.

Q: What is the difference between flat and solid geometry?



A: Flat geometry deals with shapes that are 2D, while solid geometry deals with shapes that have 3D form.
