Overview

Geometry is all about shapes, sizes, and positions of different figures around us. In this chapter, we will learn about basic geometric elements like points, lines, angles, triangles, and symmetry. These concepts help us understand the world of shapes and how they are connected. We will also learn h

Key Concepts

A point is a fixed location

A point is a fixed location. A line extends infinitely in both directions. A line segment has two endpoints and a fixed length. A ray starts from a po

An angle is formed when two

An angle is formed when two rays meet at a common point called the vertex. Angles can be acute (less than 90°), right (exactly 90°), obtuse (more than

A triangle has three sides

A triangle has three sides and three angles. Based on sides: equilateral (all sides equal), isosceles (two sides equal), scalene (all sides different)

The area of a right

The area of a right-angled triangle is half of the product of its base and height: Area = ½ × base × height.

A figure has symmetry if it

A figure has symmetry if it can be divided into two identical halves by a line. This line is called the line of symmetry. Some figures have more than
