Geometry is a branch of mathematics that studies the properties of space, including how far apart things are, what shape they have, how big they are, and where they sit relative to each other. It's one of the oldest areas of mathematics and has been a central tool for understanding the physical world and solving practical problems throughout history.

Die Geometrie (altgriechisch γεωμετρία geometria, ionisch γεωμετρίη geometriē, ‚Erdmaße‘, ‚Erdmessung‘, ‚Landmessung‘) ist ein Teilgebiet der Mathematik. Einerseits versteht man unter Geometrie die zwei- und dreidimensionale euklidische Geometrie, die Elementargeometrie, die auch im Mathematikunterricht – früher unter dem Begriff Raumlehre – gelehrt wird und die sich mit Punkten, Geraden, Ebenen, Abständen, Winkeln usw. beschäftigt, sowie diejenigen Begriffsbildungen und Methoden, die im Zuge einer systematischen und mathematischen Behandlung dieses Themas entwickelt wurden. Andererseits umfasst der Begriff Geometrie eine Reihe von großen Teilgebieten der Mathematik, deren Bezug zur Elementargeometrie für Laien nur mehr schwer erkennbar ist. Dies gilt insbesondere für den modernen Begriff der Geometrie, der im Allgemeinen die Untersuchung invarianter Größen bezeichnet.
