Geometric Concepts

• - Point – a location in space, has no size


• - Line – a straight path that extends infinitely in
both directions
• - Line Segment – part of a line with two
endpoints
• - Ray – a part of a line that starts at one point
and extends infinitely in one direction
• - Plane – a flat surface that extends without end
Pair of Lines
• - Parallel Lines – lines that never intersect,
always the same distance apart
• - Intersecting Lines – lines that cross at one
point
• - Perpendicular Lines – intersecting lines that
form right angles (90°)
Angles
• - Angle – formed by two rays (sides of the
angle) with a common endpoint (vertex)
• - Parts of an angle:
• - Vertex
• - Arms (rays)
• - Interior and exterior of an angle
Measuring Angles
• - Use a protractor to measure angles
• - Angles are measured in degrees (°)
• - Start measuring from 0° mark
• - Place center hole on the angle's vertex
Kinds of Angles
• - Acute Angle – less than 90°
• - Right Angle – exactly 90°
• - Obtuse Angle – more than 90° but less than
180°
• - Straight Angle – exactly 180°
• - Reflex Angle – more than 180° but less than
360°
Types of Quadrilaterals
• - Quadrilateral – 4-sided polygon
• - Parallelogram – opposite sides are parallel and
equal
• - Rectangle – opposite sides equal, 4 right angles
• - Square – all sides equal, 4 right angles
• - Rhombus – all sides equal, opposite angles equal
• - Trapezoid (Trapezium) – only one pair of opposite
sides are parallel
