Study Notes
Undefined Terms
- Undefined terms are described through examples and visual representations, lacking a formal description.
- There are three undefined representation terms: Point, Line, and Plane.
Point
- A point is represented by a dot.
- A point is labeled by a capital letter (e.g., point A, point M, point X).
- A point shows a specific location.
- A point has no length, width, or thickness.
- Examples of points include a person's mole, the tip of a pencil.
Line
- A line is represented by the symbol →.
- A line can be named by two capital letters (e.g., line AC or line m).
- A line can also be labeled by a small italicized letter near the arrowhead.
- A line has length but no width or thickness.
- A line always extends indefinitely in two directions.
- A double-headed arrow is placed over the name of the line.
- A line is made up of infinite points.
Collinear and Noncollinear Points
- Collinear points are points that lie on the same straight line.
- Examples of collinear points include points D, I, G, and F.
- Noncollinear points are points that are not all on the same straight line.
- Examples of noncollinear points include points D, I, L and points L, K, and M.
Concurrent Lines
- Concurrent lines are lines that meet at a single point.
- The point of concurrency is a point where three or more lines intersect.
- Examples of concurrent lines include lines n, v, r, and t.
Intersecting Lines
- Intersecting lines are two lines that meet at a single point.
- Examples of intersecting lines include lines v and t, and lines n and t.
- A point that is common to the two intersecting lines is called the point of intersection.
Perpendicular Lines
- Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect each other at right angles (90°).
- Example: line n ⊥ line r.
- A point that is common to the two perpendicular lines is called the point of intersection.
Parallel Lines
- Parallel lines are lines that do not intersect or meet each other at any point in a plane.
- Parallel lines are equidistant from each other.
- Example: lines f and d are parallel.
Plane
- A plane is a flat surface.
- A plane can be labeled by three points on the plane (e.g., Plane LRG).
- A plane can also be labeled by a capital italicized letter near the arrowhead.
- A plane has width and infinite length but no thickness.
- A plane extends infinitely in all directions.
- Examples of planes include the surface of a blackboard.
Coplanar and Noncoplanar Points
- Coplanar points are points that are on the same plane.
- Examples of coplanar points include points L, F, R, and S.
- Noncoplanar points are points that are not all on the same plane.
- Examples of noncoplanar points include points L, F, R, and Q, and points T, P, R, and L.
