Study Notes

Lines and Line Segments

  • Line: A continuous collection of points extending infinitely in both directions. Example: Line AB.
  • Line Segment: A portion of a line defined by two distinct endpoints.

Types of Lines

  • Perpendicular Lines: Lines that intersect to create right angles (90 degrees).
  • Parallel Lines: Lines that never meet, remaining constant distance apart.

Intersecting Lines

  • Intersecting Lines: Lines that cross at a single point, identifiable by tracing with a finger.
  • Intersection: The exact point where two intersecting lines cross.

Real-Life Applications

  • Intersecting Roads: Roads that cross each other at a point, creating intersection zones.
  • "Real Life" Perpendicular Lines: Situations where two lines form right angles in everyday contexts.

Points and Rays

  • Point: An exact location in space without any dimension.
  • Ray: A part of a line that has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction.
  • Endpoint: The specific points that signify the termination of a line segment.
