geometrical

Involving lines, angles

Geometrical is an adjective describing things that relate to or involve geometry—the branch of mathematics concerned with shapes, sizes, positions, and spatial relationships.

It is interchangeable with geometric in most contexts, though geometric tends to be more common in everyday usage.

Both forms describe patterns, designs, or arrangements characterized by regular shapes like circles, triangles, and straight lines: The rug featured bold geometrical patterns.

A geometrical proof demonstrates a mathematical truth using the principles of geometry.
