Reading the other answer that somebody submitted, we realize that
geometry has no uses at all in real life.

Except if you're building a road, a bridge, a house, a concrete pad for a
barbecue grill, a support for your tomato plants, a TV antenna, or a border
for a garden. There are no other uses for it.

Except if you're trying to figure out how far that point on the other side
of the highway is from you, or how high your house is. Otherwise there
is no use for geometry.

Except if you need to know how many bicycle wheels you can fit into
the carton you have, or how much yellow string you need to make a
string fence around your circular garden, or how much carpet you need
to buy in order to put new carpet in your bedroom, or how much paint
you need to buy in order to paint the garage. Other than those rare
occasions, you'll never use geometry in real life.

Unless you go to school. School is a small part of your real life where they
try to pound enough into your head so that you won't be a total flop in the
rest of it. It isn't easy. One of the ways they try to do that is to give you
gym, where you build the arm and leg muscles that you'll need if you ever
try to walk around or work at a job outside of school. Another way they try
to do it is to give you things to think about, like English and Geometry,
where you build the brain muscles that you'll need if you ever need to
think your way out of a paper bag during the rest of your real life.

Say hi to your uncle Holden for me.
