English Summary/英文概要： You may know more than you think about how shapes, lines and points in space fit together.
You develop and rely on this knowledge every time you judge the angle at which you should strike a ball in pool or snooker, and when you determine the angle at which to put up a guy rope on a tent. The study of how lines, points, 2D shapes and 3D solids fit together is the basis of geometry, a field of mathematics with a vast number of practical applications in astronomy, navigation, surveying and architecture. Ancient peoples uncovered this area of knowledge when building celebrated structures such as the pyramids of Egypt. Many centuries later, the Ancient Greeks developed geometry as a field of deductive reasoning, emphasizing the use of logic to prove that proposed statements about shapes and solids were true. The field provides great training in how to think.
