Solid geometry is defined as the study of the geometry of
three-dimensional solid figures in Euclidean space. There are numerous
techniques in solid geometry, mainly analytic geometry and methods using
vectors, since they use linear equations and matrix algebra. Solid
geometry is quite useful in everyday life, for example, to design
different signs and symbols such as octagon shape stop signs, to
indicate traffic rules, to design different 3D objects like cubicles in
gaming zones, innovative lifts, creative 3D interiors, and to design 3D
computer graphics. Studying solid geometry helps students to improve
visualization and increase logical thinking and creativity since it is
applicable everywhere in day-to-day life. It builds up a foundation for
advanced levels of mathematical studies. Numerous competitive exams
include solid geometry since its foundation is required to study other
branches like civil engineering, mechanical engineering, computer
science engineering, architecture, etc.
This book is designed especially for students of all levels, and can
serve as a fundamental resource for advanced level studies not only in
mathematics but also in various fields like engineering, interior
design, architecture, etc. It includes theoretical aspects as well as
numerous solved examples. The book includes numerical problems and
problems of construction as well as practical problems as an application
of the respective topic. A special feature of this book is that it
includes solved examples using the mathematical tool MATLAB.
