Configurational stereo isomer’s arising due to different arrangements around carbon-carbon double bond are known as geometrical isomers. Those stereoisomer having same structural formula but differing in spatial arrangement of the group around the double bond are known as geometrical isomers and the phenomenon as geometrical isomerism.
Since the presence of pi $(\pi )$ bond above and below the plane of sigma $(\sigma )$ bond lock’s the molecule in a fixed position, hence alkene derivatives of the formula abc$=$cab can be written by two spatial arrangement.
In spatial arrangement (I) similar groups are present on the same side of double bond, while in (II) the similar groups are present on the opposite side of the double bond. Hence spatial arrangement (I) is called cis, whereas (II) as the trans-isomer. Such type of geometrical is called as cis-trans isomerism.
