Elliptic GeometryA constant curvature Non-Euclidean Geometry which replaces the Parallel Postulate with the statement ``throughany point in the plane, there exist no lines Parallel to a given line.'' Elliptic geometry is sometimes also calledRiemannian Geometry. It can be visualized as the surface of a Sphere onwhich ``lines'' are taken as Great Circles. In elliptic geometry, the sum of angles of aTriangle is . See also Euclidean Geometry, Hyperbolic Geometry, Non-Euclidean Geometry
