In this paper, we discuss selected geometry concepts used in geometric art from the Mughal Empire. We show here how selected geometric designs from Mughal architecture were constructed and what geometry was employed there. All examples are presented as step-by-step constructions with Geometer’s Sketchpad (GSP), a school geometry software. One can use GeoGebra or Cinderella. Occasionally we will mention the creation of custom tools in geometry software. However, the main emphasis will be placed on geometry and geometric pattern design.
