Key Features
- Curves are closed and bound
- Parallel lines intersect at all points
- Angles of a triangle sum to more than 180 degrees
Pros
- Beautiful and elegant mathematical structures
- Useful in applications such as geodesy and cartography
Cons
- Can be difficult to visualize due to its non-intuitive nature
