A great deal of Euclidean geometry carries over directly to elliptic geometry.
From the en.wikipedia.org
This models an abstract elliptic geometry that is also known as projective geometry.

Riemann's elliptic geometry emerges as the most natural geometry satisfying this axiom.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Especially in spaces of higher dimension, elliptic geometry is called projective geometry.

A simple way to picture elliptic geometry is to look at a globe.

Spherical geometry is the simplest form of elliptic geometry.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Elliptic geometry has a variety of properties that differ from those of classical Euclidean plane geometry.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Elliptic geometry is a typical example of when this happens.
