'Abstract : Geometry, from ancient to modern times'

'\n\nGeometry has always had many hard-nosed applications. Its main customers were surveyors , settling , nicks, builders and artists. Surveyor needful masters metre parcels of land , builders , development geometry kreslyly plan buildings , and erected it employ some produced for centuries rules low which certain geometric forms parts of buildings were affiliated with the conditions of their strength.\nBuilders used as a rule of proportionate division. Artisans needed concepts about shapes and forms, volumes of solids . utilise they oecumenically proportional division. The task was alter artists : they had played on the two-dimensional flavorless that takes place in three dimensions. To do this they had to develop a kind of geometry - a sort of projective geometry.\nRequirements understand problems fortification and plea forts led to the base in the suffer quarter of the 18 century. another geometry - descriptive geometry.\nIdeas geometry - one of the foundations on which to XIX century. was rattling created by the juvenile theory of material body of building structures, and general engineering .'
