Euclid was a man - a great geometer of the ancient world. Your question should read "What is Euclidean geometry ?" The answer is : Euclidean geometry is that geometry that is based on all Euclid's axioms and postulates, including the one that says "Given a straight line on the plane and a point on the plane that is not on the line, then there can be drawn through the point and on the plane, exactly one line that never intersects the first line." Euclid knew quite well that this last was only a postulate, and that it might be possible to construct a self consistent geometry with this postulate different. It was not until the 19th century that other mathematicians caught on to this, and came up with alternative geometries. When we talk about geometries on a surface then the crucial question is whether the surface is flat - if it is then geometry is Euclidean. If the surface is curved then it isn't. Of course, we amost always do our geometry on a flat surface if we can. We can't if we are trying to navigate on the surface of the earth which is curved. The question becomes really important when we go to three dimensions; what is the geometry of space, is it curved and if so which way. The new geometries were another one of the mathematicians' pretty toys until Einstein showed us that space was in fact curved.
The way you do trigonometry is by working with triangles. Trigonometry is a math class that is taught in high school and usually followers algebra and geometry.
I think that is a way of showing that a section of the time line with no related events has been removed from that place on the line. A more common way of showing that is with a pair of slashes spanning a break in the line (------//------).
Between 1 and 2, a quarter of the way along from 1.
The way to remember it is horizontal is like the horizon, so flat like this: ___________________________________________________________ That was a horizontal line. Vertical is the other way (so up and down): | | | | | | | That was a vertical line.
Aristotle considered geometry one of the most important sciences, and did some work with point and line planar geometry. He also used geometry as a way into sciences where he did more work, like optics and mechanics.
The proper way to address an envelope to a doctor office is to first input the name of the clinic. On the second line you can insert in care of or C/O with the doctor's name. On the third and fourth line you can insert the address, city, and zip code. Include any suite or floor numbers of the doctor's office on the third line.

In classical geometry, a line is a perfectly thin, perfectly straight geometrical shape which extends to infinity without changing direction; it is one dimensional. A line can be generated by connecting any two points in the most direct way, which creates a line segment, and then extending that segment in exactly the same direction.
You can name any shape or object in any way you like as long as you say what you are doing.

It is not known. Euclid's Elements is famous for setting out geometry in a systematic and axiomatic way, his book was by no means the first on geometry.
