General knowledge: Identify the person known as the “Father of Geometry”. Who is widely regarded in the history of mathematics as the “Father of Geometry” based on foundational axioms and the treatise Elements? Choose the correct option.

Given data

• Task: Identify who is called the Father of Geometry.
• Options include classical philosophers and mathematicians.

Concept/Approach
The title refers to the scholar whose work laid the axiomatic foundations of plane and solid geometry.

Reasoning
Euclid (c. 300 BCE) compiled Elements, organizing geometry into definitions, postulates, and propositions.Pythagoras is linked with a theorem but not the full axiomatic system; Aristotle and Kepler were philosophers/astronomers rather than founders of geometry; Descartes is famed for analytic geometry much later.

Verification
Elements was the standard geometry text for over two millennia, hence Euclid's epithet.

Common pitfalls
Confusing Pythagoras' theorem with authorship of all geometry.

Final Answer
Euclid
