Geocache Description:

This is the fifteenth cache in my finite mathematical series. I am a math teacher by day. I thought a cache series dedicated to math would be a good way to educate the public.

Geometry is the study of shapes, sizes, positions, and other properties of space. Geometry is one of, if not the oldest of the sciences still studied today. Around the 3rd century BC Euclid revolutionized the study, teaching, and understanding of Geometry. Other revolutionaries in the field include Pythagoras and his school which gave us his famous Pythagorean Theorem, Descartes who introduced the coordinate plane in the 12th century, Euler, and Gauss who introduced non-Euclidean geometry.

In ancient times Geometry was on of three courses warriors, and kings took to improve their skills. Geometry teaches reasoning and logic, which is very helpful in battle. That tradition has survived and a course of in depth Geometry is required to graduate high school.
