Brief Explanations

Socrates was a philosopher who emphasized the use of reasoning (the Socratic method) to arrive at truth. He did not develop a universe theory (that was more in natural philosophy areas not his main focus), Euclid wrote on geometry principles, and the astrolabe was related to astronomy - like Ptolemy's work etc., not Socrates.

Answer:

"Socrates taught that reasoning was the way to truth."
