Embodiments of the present invention provide a multi-path solving method and apparatus, thereby improving the problem in the prior art that only one solving path is given and cannot meet actual needs. The multi-path solving method is applied to the multi-path solving apparatus, a solving rule database is stored in the apparatus in advance, and solving rules in the solving rule database comprise inference rules, axioms, definitions and theorems of plane geometry and fundamental theorems and rules of algebra. The method comprises: the multi-path solving apparatus obtaining a known condition in a to-be-solved geometric problem and a conclusion that needs to obtained for the to-be-solved geometric problem; and according to the known condition, calling the solving rules from the solving rule database to solve the to-be-solved geometric problem, and obtaining all solving paths of obtaining the conclusion according to the known condition. With adoption of the multi-path solving method, multiple solving paths are given, and a solving process of one problem with multiple solutions is presented, so that the method meets actual needs and is easy for promotion and application.
