Geometry in the real world

As you seen from the pictures, Geometry is all around us. This section will tell you about the other places that has geometry, but it will not show it like the section with the picture. Therefore it is a different section. This section will tell a person about the jobs that geometry is needed in. It will also show a person other man-made structures that is in their world today.

 

Jobs

There are many jobs in the world today that requires Geometry, one such job is a computer programmer. A computer programmer really need to know his geometry as well as many other math. This is example of a part of a visual basic program;

If UCase(Text1.Text) = Lst_English Then
    MsgBox "Right!", , "Good Job!"
    Text1.Text = ""
    If (Lst_Spanish.ListIndex = (Lst_Spanish.ListCount - 1)) Then 
            MsgBox "You Finished The Lesson!", , "Try The Next Lesson!"
            Exit Sub
   End If
   Lst_Spanish.ListIndex = Lst_Spanish.ListIndex + 1
   Lst_English.ListIndex = Lst_English.ListIndex + 1
   Label1.Caption = Lst_Spanish
   Exit Sub
End If

MsgBox "Wrong!", , "Try Again"

As you can see, then code has a lot of math in it. Even if it does not have any math relations whatsoever. You may recognize the If-Then statements in the coding. Which is part of the basics of Visual Basic programming, which is a simple programming program. There are other programming program that requires a different kind of math, yet they are all kind of the same in some way. Some other programs would be C++ and Java. There are also many other ways to form a program. A person that can program can program in whole program use in Notepad. This is one major jobs that require the Geometry Skill. Computer programmers usually get paid more than the average salary. (Around $50,000 - $300,000 a year). it really depends on who a person work for and such.

Another job would be an architect, these people are the ones who measure and design buildings to have built. They are usually hired to measure the land and make a sturdy building for a company. Some examples of their work would be on the pictures section of Real-Life on this site. If you want to go there, click here. An architect usually gets paid $30,000 to $250,000 a year.

Geometric Objects

Man-made structures that includes geometric structures would be almost everything. If a person looks closely, they would see many geometry in the structure. There are too many items to list. Buildings, cars, rockets, ships, windows, books, disks, plates are all geometric structures.

Nature even has their own geometric structures. The world is a big sphere, so is the moon and the other 8 planets in this solar system. The whole universal is a geometric structure. Measurements on maps are geometric. Which proves that not only man-made objects are geometric. It proves that even nature has geometry and that geometry exist even in things a human cannot see, just know it's there.
