Euclid was one of the world's greatest mathematicians. He was mainly famous for his contributions to the field of geometry. He was called "the father of geometry". Euclid wrote about the relationship between the fields of math, astronomy, and music. In addition, Euclid's work was so influential that a branch of geometry was named after him. Related to the past, Euclid was also a teacher for Alexandria The Great. Last of all, some geometry rules we study in school today, are from Euclid's writing.
