GEOMETRY
Geometry is the branch of
mathematics that deals with
shapes, angles, dimensions and
sizes of a variety of things we see
in everyday life. Geometry is
derived from Ancient Greek
words – 'Geo' means 'Earth' and
'metron' means 'measurement'.

RECOGNIZING &
ANALYZING GEOMETRIC
SHAPES
GEOMETRIC SHAPES
• In Mathematics, Geometric shapes are the figures which
demonstrate the shape of the objects we see in our
everyday life. In geometry, shapes are the forms of
objects which have boundary lines, angles and surfaces.
There are different types of two-dimensional and three-
dimensional figures.
POLYGON
The formula for calculating the size of an interior angle is: interior
angle of a polygon = sum of interior angles ÷ number of sides. The
sum of exterior angles of a polygon is 360°. The formula for
calculating the size of an exterior angle is: exterior angle of a
polygon = 360 ÷ number of sides.
SOLID
Is the geometry of three-dimensional space, the kind of space we live in.
• There are two main types of solids, “Polyhedra or Polyhedron”, and “Non-Polyhedra
or Non-Polyhedron”
PLATONIC SOLIDS
• Platonic solid is a convex polyhedron whose faces are all congruent convex regular polygons.
Euler’s Formula
Euler’s Formula or the “Polyhedral Formula”
● When we count the number of faces (the flat surfaces), vertices (corner
points), and edges of a polyhedron we discover an interesting thing: The
number of faces plus the number of vertices minus the number of edges
equals 2

equidistant from a point formed by revolving a circle
called the center. in three-dimensional space
about an axis that lies in the
same plane as the circle.

GEOMETRIC
TRANSFORMATION
GEOMETRIC TRANSFORMATION
• In the 19th century, Felix Klein proposed a new perspective on geometry known as
transformational geometry. Most of the proofs in geometry are based on the
transformations of objects. There are four types of transformations possible for a graph
of a function (and translation in math is one of them). They are:
Rotations
Translations
Reflections
Dilation
TRANSLATION
Moves a shape left or right and/or up or
down. The translated shapes look
exactly the same size as the original
shape, and hence the shapes are
congruent to each other. They just have
been shifted in one or more directions.
Since it is just moving of the shape from
one place to other, there is no change in
the shape.
ROTATIONS
Rotation means the circular movement of
an object around a centre. It is possible to
rotate different shapes by an angle
around the centre point. Mathematically,
a rotation means a map. All the rotations
around a fixed point that make a group
under a structure are called the rotation
group of a unique space.
REFLECTION
A reflection is known as a flip. A
reflection is a mirror image of the shape.
An image will reflect through a line,
known as the line of reflection. A figure is
said to reflect the other figure, and then
every point in a figure is equidistant from
each corresponding point in another
figure.
REFLECTION
The reflected image should have the
same shape and size, but the image
faces in the opposite direction. In
reflection, translation may also occur
because of changes in the position.
Here, the original image is called pre-
image, and its reflection is called the
image.
If a dilation creates a larger image, then it is
known as enlargement.
• States that “symmetry is a mirror image”, i.e., when an image looks identical to the original
image after the shape is being turned or flipped, then it is called symmetry. Symmetricity
exists in patterns. It is a balanced and proportionate similarity found in two halves of an
object, which means one-half is the mirror image of the other half.
TYPES OF SYMMETRY
Symmetry can be viewed when you flip, turn or slide an object. There are
four types of symmetry that can be observed in various cases.
Translational symmetry
Rotational symmetry
Reflexive symmetry
• Glide symmetry
REFLECTION
Reflective symmetry, also called mirror
symmetry, is a type of symmetry where
one half of the object reflects the other
half of the object. For example, in
general, human faces are identical on
the left and right sides.
TRANSLATIONA
L
If an object is moved from one position
to another, with the same orientation in
the forward and backward motion, it is
called translational symmetry. In other
words, translation symmetry is defined
as the sliding of an object about an axis.
For example, the following figure, where
the shape is moved forward and
backward in the same orientation by
keeping the fixed axis, depicts
translational symmetry.
ROTATIONAL
When an object is rotated in a particular
direction, around a point, then it is known
as rotational symmetry, also known as
radial symmetry. Rotational symmetry
exists when a shape is turned, and the
shape is identical to the origin. The angle
of rotational symmetry is the smallest
angle at which the figure can be rotated to
coincide with itself and the order of
symmetry is how the object coincides with
itself when it is in rotation.
GLIDE
Glide symmetry is the combination of
both translation and reflection
transformations. A glide reflection is
commutative in nature and the change in
combination’s order does not alter the
output of the glide reflection.
ROSETTE PATTERN
• A pattern with rosette symmetry is known as a rosette pattern. Rosette patterns have been
used as architectural and sculptural decoration of the new century.
• The cyclic and dihedral symmetry groups are known as rosette symmetry groups.
CYLIC
Has rotation symmetry only around a
center point. If the rotation has n order,
the group is called Cn.
DIHEDRAL
Group has rotation symmetry around the
center point with reflection lines through
the center point. If the rotation has n
order, there will be n reflection lines and
the group is called Dn.
Frieze Pattern
• An infinite strip with a repeating pattern is called a frieze pattern, or sometimes a border pattern
or an infinite strip pattern. The term “frieze” is from architecture, where a frieze refers to a
decorative carving or pattern that runs horizontally just below a roofline or ceiling.
Frieze Group
Is the set of symmetries of a frieze pattern; that is, geometric
transformations built from rigid motions and reflections that preserve the
pattern.
• This group contains translations and may contain glide reflections,
reflections along the long axis of the strip, reflections along the
narrow axis of the strip, and 180° rotations.
Frieze Group
• Using the International Union of Crystallography (IUC) notation,
the names of symmetry groups are named that begins with “p”
followed by three characters. The first is “m” if there is a vertical
reflection, and “1” if it has none. The second is “m” if there is a
horizontal reflection; or “g” if there is a glide reflection, otherwise,
use “1”. The third is “2” if there is a 180° rotation, and “1” if there
is none.
• Mathematician John H. Conway also created nicknames for each
frieze group that relate to footsteps.

TESSELATION
TESSELATION
• Defined as a pattern of shapes that covers a plane without any
gaps or overlaps. Tessellation can be found on pavements, patios,
and wallpapers. The tiled surface of flooring and walls is an
example of tessellation where there are no tiles that overlap, and
there are no gaps between shapes. In most cases, tessellations
are formed by repeated pattern; however, some utilize pictures or
designs, which in no way repeat.
TESSELATION
• Can be used to create art, puzzles, patterns, and designs. Some
famous mathematicians and artists based their work on the
concept of tessellation. One of them was Maurits Cornelis Escher,
a Dutch graphic artist who made mathematically inspired
woodcuts, lithographs, and mezzotints.
• Bruce Bilney is best known for tessellations with Australian
themes and for realistic animal shapes in natural, comfortable
poses.
Regular Tessellation
• Squares can easily be lined up with each other while the triangles and hexagons involve
translations.
• Vertex point is the point where the shapes come together. The sum of all the angles
of each shape that come together at vertex point is 360. The shapes will overlap if
the sum is greater than 360°; otherwise, there will be gaps if the sum is less than
360.
Semi Regular Tessellation
• Can be formed using a variety of regular polygons and the arrangement of these polygons
at every vertex is identical.

TESSELATION TESSELATION
• are found in the Balabac island groups in southern Palawan. The livelihood includes
subsistence farming, fishing and occasional barter trading with the Sulu and nearby
Sabah market centers.
Palawanao
• also known as Palaw’an, is an indigenous ethnic group found in the province of Palawan.
This indigenous group belongs to large Manobo-based linguistic groups of the southern
Philippines.
Sama
• are a highly variable group with the populations concentrated in Sulu and Tawi-tawi
provinces. Houses are usually built on high stilts over shallow waters in sheltered areas,
with the ubiquitous boats of many kind usually moored alongside. The dead are interred in
cemeteries on land identified by ornately carved wooden markers. (abstract representing
the dead on top of vehicles like the dugong or sea cow).
Sangil
• are among the 13 Muslim ethnolinguistic groups in the Philippines. The Sangils are well
known for their expertise in boat making and helped in uprisings against the Spanish
authorities in other regions of the country.
Tausug or Suluk
• is the name of an Islamized tribal group in the Sulu archipelago, and is taken from the
words - tau meaning man and sug meaning current.
Yakan
• are indigenous Muslim tribe native to the tropical island of Basilan in Sulu Archipelago.
Yakan people are recognized for their remarkable Technicolor geometric weaves and
distinctive face decorations used in their traditional ceremonies. Yakan weaving uses bright,
bold, and often contrasting colors in big symmetrical patterns. The inspiration for designs
comes from island living and Islamic sacred geometry.

THE HAT
THE HAT
• There is a new discovered called “The hat” as it resembles a
fedora, the elusive shape is an “einstein” (from the German “ein
stein,” or “one stone”). That means it can completely cover a
surface without ever creating a repeated pattern.
• It’s really a very simple polygon to describe. It doesn’t have
weird, irrational angles, it’s basically just something you get by
cutting up hexagons.
THE HAT
THE HAT
• Far from being content with having rewritten math
history, Smith has already discovered a “sequel” to
“The hat.” Called “The turtle,” the new shape is also
an einstein, but it’s made of 10 kites, or sections,
rather than eight, and therefore bigger than “The
hat.”
