Geometry is and their .
Geometry can be divided into:
- which is about flat shapes like lines, circles and triangles, shapes that can be drawn on a piece of paper
- which is about three dimensional objects like cubes, prisms and pyramids
, , and - terms whose definitions you need to know
A - has no dimensions, only position
A -is one-dimensional
A -is two dimensional (2D)
A -is three-dimensional (3D)

There are many special used in geometry. The most common geometrical symbols are:
symbol for triangle , for angle <, for perpendicular lines, for parallel lines , for right angle, for congruent shapes (same shape and size), three dots for �a equals b, therefore b equals a�, and so on

you need to know what are
A is a 2-dimensional shape made of straight lines.
example: triangles and rectangles are polygons (you find out what other polygons we have)
Solid shapes- three-dimensional shapes ....and so on
most important is to know Pythagoras' Theorem which is very often used
