2.1 INTRODUCTION: A 2D geometric model is a geometric model of an object as a two-
dimensional figure, usually on the Euclidean or Cartesian plane. Even though all material objects
are three-dimensional, a 2D geometric model is often adequate for certain flat objects, such as
paper cut-outs and machine parts made of sheet metal.
2D geometric models are also convenient for describing certain types of artificial images, such as
technical diagrams, logos, the glyphs of a font, etc. They are an essential tool of 2D computer
graphics and often used as components of 3D geometric models, e.g. to describe the decals to be
applied to a car model. Modern architecture practice "digital rendering" which is a technique used
to form a perception of a 2-D geometric model as of a 3-D geometric model designed through
descriptive geometry and computerized equipment.
2.2 SIMPLE 2D GEOMETRY:
Contemporary geometry has many subfields:
(1) Euclidean geometry is geometry in its classical sense. The mandatory educational
curriculum of the majority of nations includes the study of points, lines, planes, angles,
triangles, congruence, similarity, solid figures, circles, and analytic geometry. Euclidean
geometry also has applications in computer science, crystallography, and various branches
of modern mathematics.
(2) Differential geometry uses techniques of calculus and linear algebra to study problems in
geometry. It has applications in physics, including in general relativity.
(3) Topology is the field concerned with the properties of geometric objects that are unchanged
by continuous mappings. In practice, this often means dealing with large-scale properties of
spaces, such as connectedness and compactness.
(4) Convex geometry investigates convex shapes in the Euclidean space and its more abstract
analogues, often using techniques of real analysis. It has close connections to convex
analysis, optimization and functional analysis and important applications in number theory.
(5) Algebraic geometry studies geometry through the use of multivariate polynomials and
other algebraic techniques. It has applications in many areas, including cryptography and
string theory.
(6) Discrete geometry is concerned mainly with questions of relative position of simple
geometric objects, such as points, lines and circles. It shares many methods and principles
with combinatorics.
