The axiomatic structure of geometry, as initiated by Euclid and then developed by other mathematicians starts of with 8 axioms or postulates which are self-evident truths". Chains of logical reasoning can be used to prove theorems which are then accepted as additional truths, and so on. Geometry does not have laws, as such.
