Geometry Studies

 

 

Introduction:

Geometry is a very interesting type of mathematics.  There are several types of Geometry but only one that is considered in most High School classrooms, which is Euclidean Geometry.  In class we have been studying Euclidean Geometry and have not had the time to study the many other types of Geometry.  Click here to review the different types.

 

Activity:

Make a PowerPoint Presentation on two of the Geometries.  Please choose one Euclidean type and one non-Euclidean type.  The presentation will be presented to the class and should be five to eight slides long.  Make sure to use interesting facts so that class can get a good idea of why there are different types of Geometry.  Once you create your presentation, make a flow chart showing where the split in the different types occur.
