It could be applied to a particular system of geometry such as Euclidean geometry. It has also been used to refer to a geometry limited to a class of objects or of problems such as solid geometry. The term geometry may also be applied to a book on geometry. It could refer to a configuration; or an arrangement. It is applied to a surface shape. It may also be used to refer to a physical arrangement which suggests geometric forms or lines.

The term geometry comes from the Middle English word geometrie; from Old French as well as from the Latin word gemetria; from the Greek word gemetri; which comes from the term gemetrein, meaning to measure land. It is a breakup of ge-, geo, meaning earth plus metron, metria, meaning measure.
