Geometry has a variety of applications from engineering to the physical sciences. It is also used in construction and art. However, most would probably never use a theorem from geometry directly. So why do we study the theorems of geometry? It has to do with learning to think clearly and critically. Theorems are deduced based on axioms and rules of logic. Learning to prove the theorems or even just understand them can do much to increase your reasoning skills. With better reasoning skills you can distinguish good arguments from bad ones and increase your problem solving ability.

When are you ever going to use geometry?

Use the word vindicate in a sentence?
when Kai was accused of cheating on a geometry test, he vindicated himself by reciting several theorems from memory, proving that he knew the material.
Why should you use geometry?
Geometry is a prerequisite for trigonometry. Trig is a prerequisite for higher math, which is going to be used throughout your life.
What are the four aspects of geometry?
* geometry in nature * for practcal use of geometry * geometry as a theory * historic practical use of geometry
Why do you do proofs in geometry?
You start out with things that you know and use them to make logical arguments about what you want to prove. The things you know may be axioms, or may be things you already proved and can use. The practice of doing Geometry proofs inspires logical thinking, organization, and reasoning based on facts. Each statement must be supported with a valid reason, which could be a given fact, definitions, postulates, or theorems.
How is geometry used in the military?
Engineers use it for building, Artillery uses it to project where their shells are going to hit.
What has been the impact of euclid work?
Euclid is best known for his work titled Elements, a thirteen-volume textbook on the principles of mathematics. They include treatises on plane geometry (a branch of geometry dealing with plane figures), proportion (the relationship among parts), Astronomy (the study of stars, planets, and heavenly bodies), and music. Although no one knows if all of the work in Elements was Euclid's or if he compiled the mathematical knowledge of his colleagues, the work formed an important part of mathematics for 2,000 years. It constituted the simplest of all geometry definitions, theorems and axioms which could be understood by all. Although the definitions, axioms and theorems were very easy, they were very important for the daily use of mathematics.
