Overview

Geometry is all about shapes, sizes, positions, and how things are arranged in space. In this chapter, we learn the most basic building blocks of geometry like points, lines, rays, line segments, angles, and how they interact with each other. These ideas help us understand more complex shapes and fi

Key Concepts

A point is a fixed position

A point is a fixed position with no size. A line extends infinitely in both directions. A ray starts at a point and goes infinitely in one direction.

An angle is formed when two

An angle is formed when two rays or line segments meet at a common endpoint called the vertex. Angles are measured in degrees. There are different typ

Parallel lines never meet and

Parallel lines never meet and are always the same distance apart, like railway tracks. Intersecting lines cross each other at a point. When two lines

When a line (transversal) cuts two

When a line (transversal) cuts two or more lines, it forms several angles. If the lines are parallel, then corresponding angles are equal, alternate a
