Geometry vs. Trigonometry

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.

Trigonometrynoun

The branch of mathematics that deals with the relationships between the sides and angles of (in particular) right-angled triangles, as represented by the trigonometric functions, and with calculations based on said relationships.

Trigonometrynoun

That branch of mathematics which treats of the relations of the sides and angles of triangles, which the methods of deducing from certain given parts other required parts, and also of the general relations which exist between the trigonometrical functions of arcs or angles.

Trigonometrynoun

A treatise in this science.

Trigonometrynoun

the mathematics of triangles and trigonometric functions

Trigonometry

Trigonometry (from Greek trigōnon, and metron, ) is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles. The field emerged in the Hellenistic world during the 3rd century BC from applications of geometry to astronomical studies.
