Study Notes

Geometry

  • Branch of mathematics dealing with the study of shapes, sizes, and positions of objects
  • Involves points, lines, angles, and planes
  • Key concepts:
    • Points: locations in space, represented by coordinates (x, y, z)
    • Lines: sets of points extending infinitely in two directions
    • Angles: formed by two rays sharing a common endpoint (vertex)
    • Planes: flat surfaces that extend infinitely in all directions

Statistics

  • Branch of mathematics dealing with the collection, analysis, interpretation, presentation, and organization of data
  • Involves:
    • Descriptive statistics: summarizing and describing data
    • Inferential statistics: making conclusions about a population based on a sample
  • Key concepts:
    • Measures of central tendency: mean, median, mode
    • Measures of variability: range, variance, standard deviation
    • Probability: chance of an event occurring

Construction of Angle 60 and 90 Degrees

Construction of 60 Degrees Angle

  • Method 1: Using a Compass

    1. Draw a line segment AB
    2. Place the point of the compass on A and draw an arc above AB
    3. Place the point of the compass on B and draw an arc that intersects the first arc
    4. Draw a line through the point of intersection and A, creating a 60-degree angle
  • Method 2: Using a Ruler and a Set Square

    1. Draw a line segment AB
    2. Place the set square on the line, with one arm on the line and the other arm at a 30-degree angle
    3. Draw a line along the 30-degree arm, creating a 60-degree angle

Construction of 90 Degrees Angle

  • Method 1: Using a Compass

    1. Draw a line segment AB
    2. Place the point of the compass on A and draw an arc above AB
    3. Place the point of the compass on B and draw an arc that intersects the first arc
    4. Draw a line through the point of intersection and A, creating a 90-degree angle
  • Method 2: Using a Ruler and a Set Square

    1. Draw a line segment AB
    2. Place the set square on the line, with one arm on the line and the other arm at a 90-degree angle
    3. Draw a line along the 90-degree arm, creating a 90-degree angle
