1st activity - Basic geometry concepts & paper folding

The first activity of our project is about basic geometric concepts. We will define plane, point, particular plane, point, ray, line, and line segment.
But, before saying more about our activity, do you know who is the person in the painting? Also, do you know what "geometry" means?
If you do not, then perhaps you should read the following pages in Wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclid

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometry

Now, can you answer the questions above? Leave your answer as a comment in this post!
