Arithmetic vs. Geometry

Arithmeticnoun

The mathematics of numbers (integers, rational numbers, real numbers, or complex numbers) under the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Arithmeticadjective

(mathematics) Of, relating to, or using arithmetic; arithmetical.

Arithmeticadjective

(arithmetic) Of a progression, mean, etc, computed solely using addition.

Arithmeticnoun

The science of numbers; the art of computation by figures.

Arithmeticnoun

A book containing the principles of this science.

Arithmeticnoun

the branch of pure mathematics dealing with the theory of numerical calculations

Arithmeticadjective

relating to or involving arithmetic;

Arithmetic

Arithmetic (from the Greek ἀριθμός arithmos, 'number' and τική [τέχνη], tiké [téchne], 'art' or 'craft') is a branch of mathematics that consists of the study of numbers, especially concerning the properties of the traditional operations on them—addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, exponentiation and extraction of roots. Arithmetic is an elementary part of number theory, and number theory is considered to be one of the top-level divisions of modern mathematics, along with algebra, geometry, and analysis.

Geometrynoun

The branch of mathematics dealing with spatial relationships.

Geometrynoun

A mathematical system that deals with spatial relationships and that is built on a particular set of axioms; a subbranch of geometry which deals with such a system or systems.

Geometrynoun

(countable) The observed or specified spatial attributes of an object, etc.

Geometrynoun

That branch of mathematics which investigates the relations, properties, and measurement of solids, surfaces, lines, and angles; the science which treats of the properties and relations of magnitudes; the science of the relations of space.

Geometrynoun

A treatise on this science.

Geometrynoun

the pure mathematics of points and lines and curves and surfaces

Geometry

Geometry (from the Ancient Greek: γεωμετρία; geo- , -metron ) is, with arithmetic, one of the oldest branches of mathematics. It is concerned with properties of space that are related with distance, shape, size, and relative position of figures.
