In this video we are going to explore the origins of non-Euclidean geometry. We look back to Euclid and his infamous book the Elements, where he outlined an axiomatic approach to Euclidean geometry using five postulates. The fifth, the parallel postulate, has always been controversial, a consistent system of geometry that accepted the first four postulates but rejected the parallel postulate wasn't discovered until the nineteen century by Janos Bolyai, Nikolai Lobachevsky, and Carl Gauss who independently worked towards something called hyperbolic geometry, one of multiple non-Euclidean geometries. We specifically will explore the Poincare disk, one model of hyperbolic geometry.
