2. List of mathematical shapes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_shapes

   The elements of a polytope can be considered according to either their own dimensionality or how many dimensions "down" they are from the body. Vertex, a 0-dimensional element; Edge, a 1-dimensional element; Face, a 2-dimensional element; Cell, a 3-dimensional element; Hypercell or Teron, a 4-dimensional element; Facet, an (n-1)-dimensional element

3. Geometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometry

   Mathematics. Geometry (from Ancient Greek γεωμετρία (geōmetría) 'land measurement'; from γῆ (gê) 'earth, land' and μέτρον (métron) 'a measure') [1] is a branch of mathematics concerned with properties of space such as the distance, shape, size, and relative position of figures. [2] Geometry is, along with arithmetic, one ...

4. Elementary mathematics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_mathematics

   [1] Elementary mathematics, also known as primary or secondary school mathematics, is the study of mathematics topics that are commonly taught at the primary or secondary school levels around the world. It includes a wide range of mathematical concepts and skills, including number sense, algebra, geometry, measurement, and data analysis.

5. Area - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

   Area is the measure of a region 's size on a surface. The area of a plane region or plane area refers to the area of a shape or planar lamina, while surface area refers to the area of an open surface or the boundary of a three-dimensional object. Area can be understood as the amount of material with a given thickness that would be necessary to ...

6. Dimension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimension

   In physics and mathematics, the dimension of a mathematical space (or object) is informally defined as the minimum number of coordinates needed to specify any point within it. [1][2] Thus, a line has a dimension of one (1D) because only one coordinate is needed to specify a point on it – for example, the point at 5 on a number line.

7. Euclidean geometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_geometry

   Euclidean geometry is a mathematical system attributed to ancient Greek mathematician Euclid, which he described in his textbook on geometry, Elements. Euclid's approach consists in assuming a small set of intuitively appealing axioms (postulates) and deducing many other propositions (theorems) from these. Although many of Euclid's results had ...
