Geometry is not only one of the oldest branches of mathematics, but also one of the most basic branches in this field. Among them, ancient China, ancient Babylon, ancient Egypt, ancient India and ancient Greece are all important cradles of geometry. With the development of geometry, the position of geometry in real life is more important. Then, understanding the ubiquitous graphics is the basis of learning geometry well. If people want to learn mathematics well, they must learn geometry well. Similarly, when learning geometry, you must first understand the story about geometry, in order to arouse your interest in learning geometry well.
Mathematical research in ancient Greece has a very long history. As early as Euclid's time, there were some works on geometry, but the contents were not systematic and complete. So Euclid devoted himself to research, collected the achievements of predecessors, adopted an unprecedented and unique writing method, first put forward definitions, axioms and postulates, and then proved a series of theorems from simple to complex, and discussed plane figures and three-dimensional figures, as well as integers, fractions and proportions. , finally completed the masterpiece "Geometry". This book is the most successful textbook in history. It replaced all previous textbooks as soon as it came out, and has been used for more than two thousand years. 1482, this book was also translated into the most important language in the world. ;
