They are not alike euclidean is based on a plane. non-euclidean is based on a sphere, similar to earth. Both forms are correct based on the proof the formulas provide. However neither are 100 percent accurate since, although it looks like earth a sphere it is not. The gravitational pole contributes to earth being misshaped and is more of an oval. True geometry would have to take this in consideration when calculating something as simple as the angles of a triangle.

What is a characteristic of Euclidean geometry?
One main characteristic of non-Euclidean geometry is hyperbolic geometry. The other is elliptic geometry. Non-Euclidean geometry is still closely related to Euclidean geometry.
What is equiform geometry?
The geometry of similarity in the Euclidean plane or Euclidean space.
Both Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry have been accepted as valid types of geometry?
true
What are the names of Non Euclidean Geometries?
There are two non-Euclidean geometries: hyperbolic geometry and ellptic geometry.
Give a brief history of euclidean geometry?
Euclid developed Euclidean geometry around 300 BC. I cannot get much briefer than that.
