    Study Notes

    Geometric Figures

    • Geometry focuses on properties, measurements, and construction of flat (e.g., angles, triangles, rectangles) and solid figures (e.g., cubes, pyramids, spheres).
    • A geometric solid is defined by its space and six surfaces, with each surface referred to as a face.
    • An edge represents the intersection of two surfaces, while a line is the intersection of any two surfaces.
    • A point is formed by the intersection of two lines, aiding in precise geometric definitions.
    • A plane surface allows a straight line between any two points to lie entirely within it.
    • A broken line consists of different successive straight lines.

    Principles of Lines

    • A straight line is recognized as the shortest distance between two points.
    • Only a single straight line can exist between two distinct points.
    • Two straight lines may intersect at only one unique point.

    Line Segment

    • A line segment, or simply a segment, refers to a limited portion of a line.

    Equal Segments

    • Segments are considered equal if their endpoints can coincide perfectly.

    Mid Point

    • A line segment is bisected by a point, resulting in two equal halves; this point is termed as the midpoint.
    • The relationship can be expressed as ( Ac = \frac{1}{2}AB ).

    Trisection Points

    • A line segment is trisected when divided into three equal parts by two points.
    • Compasses are effective for precise measurement of lines.

    Equalities and Inequalities

    • Magnitudes ( a ) and ( b ) can have three possible relationships:
      • ( a ) equals ( b )
      • ( a ) is greater than ( b )
      • ( a ) is less than ( b )

    Principles of Relationships

    • Quantities equal to the same quantity are themselves equal.
    • The whole is equivalent to the aggregate of its individual parts.
    • The whole is always greater than any of its component parts.
    • Adding equal quantities to equal quantities retains equality in sums.
    • Subtracting equal quantities from equal quantities leaves equal remainders.
    • Doubling equal quantities results in equality.
    • Halving equal quantities maintains equality.
    • In transitive relationships, if one quantity is greater than the second, and the second is greater than a third, then the first quantity will be greater than the third.
