Geometry
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference.
Geometry is the mathematics of spatial relations.
Several Vulcans, including Tuvok and Mestral, observed that the game of pool can be easily mastered by using simple geometry. Mestral stated that that the game "wouldn't challenge a Vulcan child." Jack later stated that he had an upcoming geometry exam, and he played pool as a means of study. (ENT: "Carbon Creek")
When Chakotay was given a message from Kid Chaos's species it was correctly determined to be "some sort of alien geometry," in fact, it was the rentrillic trajectory necessary to escape from chaotic space. (VOY: "The Fight")
Seven of Nine gave Naomi Wildman geometry lessons in 2376. One of her assignments was to build a tetragon using everyday objects, rather than using a replicator. She eventually decided on using carrots and celery. (VOY: "Memorial")
