That is correct! Elements contains theorems and postulates that shaped Geometry to what it is now and became its foundation too.
ELEMENTS- CONTAINS 465 THEOREMS AND PROOFS
Specifically, Euclid's postulates gave birth to a now important branch of Geometry - the Euclidean Geometry.
EUCLIDEAN GEOMETRY - THE STUDY OF PLANE AND SOLID FIGURES ON THE BASIS OF AXIOMS AND THEOREMS PRESENTED AND USED BY EUCLID.
And did you know that because of his controversial fifth postulate, another branch of Geometry has been discovered? However, we will talk about that in our future meetings, because that will be a new set of mathematicians.
EUCLID'S FIFTH POSTULATE"IF TWO LINES ARE DRAWN WHICH INTERSECT A THIRD IN SUCH A WAY THAT THE SUM OF THE INNER ANGLES ON ONE SIDE IS LESS THAN TWO RIGHT ANGLES, THEN THE TWO LINES INEVITABLY MUST INTERSECT EACH OTHER ON THAT SIDE IF EXTENDED FAR ENOUGH."
And that's all for our discussion for today. Thank you for listening, class. I hope you learned a lot. Class dismissed!
I learned a lot today, Teacher. Thank you!
Have a good day, Teacher!
Yes, Teacher! Thank you so much!
The End.
