To make #15 true, they must be three non-collinear points. For #16, the two rays must lie on the same line, which it does not state. For #20, four poin ...

(AA) Criterion for Two Triangles to Be Similar
... We know that for two triangles, when two pairs of corresponding angles are equal and the included corresponding sides are equal in length, the triangles are congruent. By the triangle sum theorem, we can actually state that all three pairs of corresponding angles of the triangles are equal. Since a ...

History of geometry

Geometry (from the Ancient Greek: γεωμετρία; geo- ""earth"", -metron ""measurement"") arose as the field of knowledge dealing with spatial relationships. Geometry was one of the two fields of pre-modern mathematics, the other being the study of numbers (arithmetic).Classic geometry was focused in compass and straightedge constructions. Geometry was revolutionized by Euclid, who introduced mathematical rigor and the axiomatic method still in use today. His book, The Elements is widely considered the most influential textbook of all time, and was known to all educated people in the West until the middle of the 20th century.In modern times, geometric concepts have been generalized to a high level of abstraction and complexity, and have been subjected to the methods of calculus and abstract algebra, so that many modern branches of the field are barely recognizable as the descendants of early geometry.
