- sacred geometriesplural of sacred geometry: The ascription of symbolic and sacred meanings to certain geometric shapes and proportion, associated with the belief that a god is the geometer of the world.
- non-Euclidean geometriesplural of non-Euclidean geometry: Any system of geometry not based on the set of axioms of Euclidean geometry, which is based on the three-dimensional space of common experience.
- absolute geometriesplural of absolute geometry: The single (up to logical equivalence) geometry whose axiomatic system is equivalent to that of Euclidean geometry without the parallel postulate or any alternative.
- affine geometriesplural of affine geometry: The branch of geometry dealing with what can be deduced in Euclidean geometry when the notions of line length and angle size are ignored.
- algebraic geometriesplural of algebraic geometry: A branch of mathematics that studies algebraic varieties (solution sets of polynomial equations) and their generalisations, using techniques from both algebra (chiefly commutative algebra) and geometry.
