Lesson 1.2 Intro to Geometry
Learning Target I can understand basic geometric terms and postulates.
Points • Points do not have actual size. • How to Sketch: Using dots • How to label: Use capital letters A B
Lines • Lines extend indefinitely and have no thickness or width. • How to sketch : using arrows at both ends. • How to name: 2 ways (1) small script letter – line n (2) any 2points on the line - • Never name a line using three points - n A B C
Segments A part of a line that consists of two endpoints and all the points in between them. How to name: by 2 endpoints A B C
Rays • A part of a line that consists of one endpoint and all the points to one side of that endpoint. A B C How to name: 2 points with ENDPOINT FIRST Not like this…
Opposite Rays Two rays that share the same endpoint and form a straight line. A B C
Collinear Points • Collinear points are points that lie on the same line. C A A B C B Non collinear Collinear
Coplanar Objects Coplanar objects (points, lines, etc.) are objects that lie on the same plane. Are the following points coplanar? A, B, C ? Yes A, B, C, F ? No H, G, F, E ? Yes E, H, C, B ? Yes A, G, F ? Yes C, B, F, H ? No
Postulates • An accepted statement of fact.
Line POSTULATE – Through any two points there is exactly ONE line A B
Planes POSTULATE – Through any 3 non-collinear points there is exactly ONE plane • A plane is a flat surface that extends indefinitely in all directions. • How to sketch: Use a parallelogram (four sided figure) • How to name: 2 ways (1) Capital script letter – Plane M (2) Any 3 non collinear points in the plane - Plane: ABCor BCA or BAC, etc. A M B C
Different planes in a figure: A B Plane BCG Plane ABF Plane CDH Etc. D C E F H G
Other planes in the same figure: Any three non collinear points determine a plane! Plane ACG Plane ACH Etc.
Intersection of Two Lines POSTULATE The intersection of two lines is a point. m Line m and line n intersect at point P. P n
Intersection of Two Planes POSTULATE The intersection of two planes is exactly ONE line. B P A R Plane P and Plane R intersect at the line
