The Pythagorean theorem, a cornerstone of mathematics for millennia, provides a method for determining unknown sides in right ...

Crows have a sense of geometric intuition much like our own, a new study reveals. They can detect the 'odd one out' in a set ...

However, multiple occurrences of these patterns means that the shape can be further broken down into smaller components. Fano discovered the first of these “atomic” shapes back in the 1930s .

A new shape called an einstein has taken the math world by storm. The craggy, hat-shaped tile can cover an infinite plane with patterns that never repeat.

Crows in a lab were able to distinguish shapes that exhibited right angles, parallel lines, and symmetry, suggesting that, like humans, they have a special ability to perceive geometric regularity.

A new study shows that like humans, crows can recognize geometric regularity, making them the first nonhuman animal known to have this ability. Squares, triangles, circles - these geometric shapes ...

The mathematical study of how repeating tiles fit together usually involves pointed shapes like triangles or squares, but these aren't normally found in the natural world By Alex Wilkins 26 ...
