Abstract: Abstract This chapter conveys the geometry of finite simplicial complexes which provides a convenient way to study manifolds and builds up interesting topological spaces called polyhedra from these complexes followed by a study of their homotopy properties with computing their fundamental groups and develops certain analytical geometric tools for subsequent chapters.
