solid geometry
Three-dimensional shape study
Solid geometry is the branch of mathematics dealing with three-dimensional figures—spheres, cubes, pyramids, cylinders, and the like.
It concerns their properties, measurements, and spatial relationships.
Contrasted with plane geometry, which handles two-dimensional shapes: We moved from plane geometry to solid geometry in the spring semester.
