Overview

Lines and angles form the basic language of geometry. A point shows position, a line extends endlessly in both directions, a ray starts at one fixed point and goes on in one direction, and a line segment has two fixed ends. Angles are formed when two rays or two line segments meet at a common end-po

Key Concepts

A point is a mark

A point is a mark of position with no length, breadth, or thickness. It is shown by a capital letter. A point has no size, but it helps locate a posit

A line has length but no

A line has length but no breadth or thickness. It extends infinitely in both directions. A line contains an infinite number of points, and only one li

A ray starts from one fixed

A ray starts from one fixed point and moves in one direction forever. One end is fixed and the other end keeps moving. Any number of rays can be drawn

A line segment has both ends

A line segment has both ends fixed. It has a definite measurable length. Through any two fixed points, only one line segment can be drawn, and it is t

An angle is formed when two

An angle is formed when two rays or two line segments have a common end-point. The common point is called the vertex, and the two rays or segments are
