Euclid's Fourth Axiom
Euclid's fourth axiom, like all the others, is clearly a very simple assertion. It is how Euclid ingeniously utilizes these axioms, however, that holds importance.

Hyperbolic Geometry
One of the most common families of non-Euclidean geometry is hyperbolic geometry - a self-consistent geometry of "obtuse" curvature.

Euclidean v Non-Euclidean Geometry
While most people are far more familiar with the basic principles of Euclidean geometry, scientists have come to discover that the shape of our universe is non-Euclidean.
