List of basic geometry topics

:"For a more comprehensive list, see the list of geometry topics."

Geometry is one of the main branches of mathematics and deals with space and spatial relationships. It covers the measurement, properties, and relationships of points, lines, angles, curves, planes, and shapes, in both two- and three-dimensions.

The following outline is provided as an overview of and introduction to geometry:

Essence of geometry

History of geometry

Basic geometry concepts

Vectors

amplitude -- dot product -- norm (mathematics) (also known as magnitude) -- position vector -- scalar multiplication -- vector addition -- zero vector

Basic concepts

Geometric progression -- Geometric shape -- Geometry -- Pi -- angular velocity -- linear velocity -- De Moivre's theorem -- parallelogram rule -- Pythagorean theorem -- similar triangles -- trigonometric identity -- unit circle -- Trapezoid -- Triangle -- Theorem -- point -- ray -- plane -- line -- line segment

Measurements

bearing -- angle -- degree -- minute -- radian -- circumference -- diameter

Trigonometric functions

asymptotes -- circular functions -- periodic functions -- law of cosines -- law of sines

Vector spaces and complex dimensions

complex plane -- imaginary axis -- linear interpolation -- one-to-one -- orthogonal -- polar coordinate system -- pole -- real axis -- secant -- Circular sector or "sector" -- semiperimeter
