Individual #pure_mathematics the branches of mathematics that study and develop the principles of mathematics for their own sake rather than for their immediate usefulness
>part of: mathematics__math__maths__math a science (or group of related sciences) dealing with the logic of quantity and shape and arrangement
>part: arithmetic the branch of pure mathematics dealing with the theory of numerical calculations
>part: algorism computation with Arabic figures
>part: geometry the pure mathematics of points and lines and curves and surfaces
>part: elementary_geometry__parabolic_geometry__parabolicgeometry__Euclidean_geometry geometry based on Euclid's axioms: e.g., only one line can be drawn through a point parallel to another line
>part: non-Euclidean_geometry geometry based on axioms different from Euclid's
>part: hyperbolic_geometry a non-Euclidean geometry in which it is assumed that through any point there are two or more parallel lines that do not intersect a given line in the plane
>part: elliptic_geometry__Riemannian_geometry a non-Euclidean geometry that regards space is like a sphere and a line is a great circle
>part: spherical_geometry__sphericalgeometry the geometry of figures on the surface of a sphere
>part: analytic_geometry__analytical_geometry__coordinate_geometry the use of algebra to study geometric properties; operates on symbols defined in a coordinate system
>part: plane_geometry__planegeometry the geometry of 2-dimensional figures
