Elliptic geometry is a type of non-Euclidean geometry characterized by its unique properties and the nature of its parallel lines. In contrast to Euclidean geometry, where the parallel postulate states that through a point not on a given line, there is exactly one line parallel to the given line, in elliptic geometry, there are no parallel lines at all. Every pair of lines eventually intersects.
