The science or practice of measuring angles, particularly in crystallography, medicine, and engineering.
From Greek gonia (angle) + metria (measurement). The systematic study of angular measurement across multiple scientific disciplines.
Goniometry connects ancient geometry to modern medicine—the same principles Euclid used to measure angles in triangles help physical therapists track recovery and engineers design machines.
