Study Notes
Definitions and Concepts in Geometry
- Coplanar Lines: Lines that reside in the same plane and may or may not intersect.
- Equation of a Line: Typically expressed in the form y = mx + b, where m represents the slope and b the y-intercept.
Relationships Between Lines
- Parallel Lines: Lines that never meet and are equidistant from one another; have identical slopes in their equations.
- Perpendicular Lines: Lines that intersect at a right angle (90 degrees); slopes are negative reciprocals of each other.
Line and Plane Characteristics
- Line in Geometry: A straight one-dimensional figure that extends infinitely in both directions with no endpoints.
- Plane in Geometry: A flat, two-dimensional surface that extends infinitely in all directions, defined by any three non-collinear points.
Angle of Intersection
- Intersecting Lines: Lines that cross each other at any angle other than 90 degrees.
Conditions for Line Relationships
- Condition for Parallel Lines: Two lines are parallel if their slopes are equal and they do not coincide.
- Condition for Perpendicular Lines: Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes equals -1.
Comparison of Line Types
- Difference Between Parallel and Perpendicular Lines: Parallel lines never meet and maintain constant distance; perpendicular lines intersect to form a right angle.
