Question

What is the difference between Euclidean and non-Euclidean?

Answer 1

Hey dude,

The essential difference between Euclidean geometry and these two non-Euclidean geometries is the nature of parallel lines: In Euclidean geometry, given a point and a line, there is exactly one line through the point that is in the same plane as the given line and never intersects it.

Answer 2

Euclidean geometry seeks to understand the geometry of flat, two-dimensional spaces, non-Euclidean geometry studies curved, rather than flat, surfaces. Although Euclidean geometry is useful in many fields, in some cases, non-Euclidean geometry may be more useful.
