Why is geometry so hard?

Geometry is about thinking logically, as scientists do, or lawyers, or auto mechanics.  There are facts you have to know: the definitions, postulates, theorems.  And there are procedures you have to know: how to assemble the facts in a sequence that proves something.\n\nIn truth, not everyone is up to it.  Lots of people prefer to run their lives on a combination of emotion and simple beliefs and let other people do the thinking.  Maybe they're even happy.  But understanding the world well enough to make changes takes the kind of education that's based on hard mental work.

First you have to know how to spell the various types of geometry: Euclidean, Non-Euclidean for a start. Then do a search for more informaiton.

this is not so easy to answer without doing some work: usually, when you speak of tessellation, it's more likely to deal with symmetries.\n\nHere is a good site which has a couple of interesting articles and softwares on tessellations:\n\nhttp://www.scienceu.com \n(click on the "Geometry center" icon)\n\nAnyway, I'll think better about it: it's a good question.

geometry got its importance universally.in medical engg for \nthe study of the various instruments used their geometry is to be known.for eg:an optical fibre used in endoscopic surgeries must of very fine geometry,or else it cannot serve the purpose.\nstill many examples can be coated.

Sometimes geometry is more than calculating numbers.  Geometry has to do with shapes in space.\nSimple geometry is used when driving an automobile.  The curve of the road, for example is constant, so you do not have to keep adjusting the steering wheel.\nChildren use geometry when stacking blocks.  Adults use the same techniques when stacking boxes in a warehouse (they might also calculate how many boxes can go into the space provided).\nGeometry is used to make sure that a door closes in the frame.  Right angles and the proper length and width.\nGeometry is use when slicing a pie or cake.  Sometime to get even pieces, sometimes to get different size pieces.\nGeometry is used when playing baseball.  The diamond is really a square and the batter must place the bat at just the right place to hit the ball.  This is usually done unconsciously.\nAny time that size and shape of objects matter, geometry is used.

geometry is the link.

When u r solving a problem draw the figure first and mark it clearly. Visualization is the most important part in geometry.\nThe chapters r different becoz each chapter is another step 2 the next chapter. Try 2 remember the theorems studied earlier becoz u need them now. If u feel grounded, keep in mind, in ur book there is nothing u can't do with what u already know. If u hav enough time try 2 solve all the end of chapter problems on ur own.

As far as I understand it, most disciplines of "hard science" are built on principles of mathematics, but mathematics in of itself is not considered a "hard science." As more advanced it becomes, the more theoretical it gets, and starts to resemble something like philosophy.

Algebra is needed for SO many things! Recipes, budgeting you name it. It teaches problem solving. Geometry is good to shape your mind to think logically. I actually took geometry twice out of my own free will because I loved proving the angles were equal or whatever. My mind was never so sharp. Trig, well I actually haven't found a use for that yet....

Sounds like you are well on your way.  I'm glad to hear you are wanting to take you math classes early to open up room for more advanced math classes later.  You can take Geometry early like you are saying and receive credit for it.  Good luck to you.

In plain geometry :\n*Only one line can be drawn through that point perpendicular to the given line\n*Only one line can be drawn through that poin parallel to the given line\nIn space geometry :\nOnly one line can be drawn through that poin parallel to the given line

good- geometry is hard for alot of kids-just try to bring that one grade up to a C and I'd say your golden

Depends on the individual.  Differential equations is a very difficult course.  I have Calc 1 and calc 3 to be somewhat simple but calc 2 was very difficult for me.  Some people do better with more algebraic stuff while others just do better with geometry.

Algebra can get difficult but i get used to it and i grasped it pretty quickly.  But when i first learn some of the concepts i need to do the homework and look at it for a while.  Then, it just sticks to me.  I can understand how people can find it really confusing and difficult.

My husband and I just used geometry the other day to estimate how much tile to buy for our 2 bathrooms.  Our bathrooms have a lot of irregular spaces, so we had to measure the entire perimeter of each bathroom.  We then split the bathrooms into different geometric shapes to find the area.  We had to work our formulas for several squares, rectangles, and triangles.   Then we added them all together to come up with the square footage.  After that, we had to estimate how many 12 inch by 12 inch tiles we needed.  It was pretty tricky, but my husband is a math whiz, so it's easy for him.  He's an engineer, go figure...

It all depends on what subjects you're good at or not good at, which varies from student to student. For me, anything that had to do with science or math was the hardest.

yes , it is very hard
