Undefined Terms

This document provides an overview of basic geometry concepts including points, lines, planes, and angles. It defines these terms and provides examples of how to represent them symbolically. Several activities are included for students to practice identifying and classifying examples as points, lines, planes, collinear/coplanar points, line segments, rays, and different types of angles. The document concludes by explaining how to measure angles using a protractor and providing examples of angle measurements.

OBJECTIVES
 represent point, line and plane
using concrete and pictorial
models;
 define, identify, and name the
subsets of a line; and
 classify different kinds of
angles and measure an angle.
WHAT IS
GEOMETRY?
- comes from the two Greek
words “GEO” means earth and
“METRI” means measurement.
- literally means earth
measurement
EUCLID
He is the
Father of
Modern
Geometry.

Point, Lines, Planes, Angles


UNDEFINED TERMS
The terms points, lines,
and planes are the
foundations of geometry,
but… point, line, and
plane are all what we call
undefined terms.
POINT
• Has no dimension
• Usually represented
by a small dot
POINT
A
The above is called point A.
Note the point is represented with a
capital letter.
LINE
• Extend in one dimension.
• Represented with straight
line with two arrowheads to
indicate that the line
extends without end in two
directions.
LINE
l
A
B
This is Line l, (using the lower case
script letter) or symbolically we call it AB

NOTICE: The arrowheads are in


both directions on the symbol AB
PLANE
• Extend in two dimensions.
• Represented by a slanted
4 sided figure, but you
must envision it extends
without end, even though
the representation has
edges.
PLANE
A M
B C

This is Plane M or plane ABC


(be sure to only use three of the
points when naming a plane)
ACTIVITY #1
TELL WHETHER EACH OF
THE FOLLOWING
REPRESENTS A POINT, A
LINE OR A PLANE.
1. star in the sky as seen from the Earth
2. curtain rod
3. edge of a ruler
4. cartolina
5. A knot on a piece of thread
6. A clothesline
7. the crease in a folded paper
8. corner of a room
9. a page of a book
10.a magic wand
UNDEFINED
CONCEPTS
COLLINEAR
POINTS
•points that lie on
the same line.
NONCOLLINEAR
POINTS
•points that do not
lie on the same
line.
COPLANAR
POINTS
•points and line
that lie on the same
plane.
NONCOPLANAR
POINTS
•points and lines
that do not lie on
the same plane.
ACTIVITY #2
Use the figure at the
right to determine
whether each of the
following is TRUE or
FALSE.
1) A, N and D are collinear.
2) A, R, Z, K are coplanar.
3) C, R, Z and T are non-coplanar.
4) M, K and T are coplanar.
5) M, R, A and I are coplanar
6) R, Z and T are non-collinear.
7) E, C and M are collinear.
8) M, K, C and I are coplanar.
9) M, R, Z, T and K are coplanar.
10) A, I, R and N are non-collinear.
SUBSET OF
LINES
LINE SEGMENT
•is a subset of the line consisting
of two endpoints.

A B
This is segment AB

Notice the difference in


the symbolic notation!
LINE SEGMENT

A B C D
How many line segments we can form?

We can form 6 different line segments:


AB, AC, AD, BC, BD and CD.
LINE SEGMENT
Number of line segments
=

where n is the numbers of


points in the given line.
LINE SEGMENT
no. of line segment =
Ex. 5 points
= 10 line
= = = segments
RAY
• only one endpoint and extends
infinitely in only one direction.
RAY
Number of rays = 2(n-1)
where n is the number of points in the given line.

Ex. 5 points
= 2 (5-1)
= 2 (4)
= 8 rays
ANGLES
ANGLES
An angles consists of two
different rays that have the
same initial point. The rays
are sides of the angles. The
initial point is called the
vertex.
ANGLES
vertex B

sides
A
C

Notation: We denote an angle with three points


and  symbol. The middle point is always the
vertex. We can also name the angle with just the
vertex point. This angle can be denoted as:

BAC , CAB, or A
ANGLES
Angles are classified as
acute, right, obtuse, and
straight, according to their
measures. Angles have
measures greater than 0°
and less or equal to 180°.
ANGLES
A
Acute angle A
Right angle
0°< m A < 90°
m A = 90°

A A
Obtuse angle Straight angle
90°< m A < 180° m A = 180°
ANGLE
MEASUREMENT
 Protractor is an instrument
used to measure an angle.
 The unit of measure is called a
degree.
 The number of degrees in an
angle is called its measure.
= 65°
= 90°
= 120°
= 20°
= 55°
= 60°
= 90°
= 115°
