1. 1 Identify Points, Lines, and Planes Goal Name & Sketch Geometric Figures

A point has no dimension. It is represented by a small dot. Point A

A point has no dimension. It is represented by a small dot. Point A A A line has one dimension. It extends without end in two directions. It is represented by a line with two arrowheads. ℓ Line ℓ or BC B C

Lines extend indefinitely and have no thickness or width. How to sketch : using

Lines extend indefinitely and have no thickness or width. How to sketch : using arrows at both ends. n How to name: 2 ways (1) small script letter – line n (2) any two points on the line Never name a line using three points - A C

Points do not have actual size. How to Sketch: A Using dots How to

Points do not have actual size. How to Sketch: A Using dots How to label: Use capital letters Never name two points with the same letter (in the same sketch). B C A

Collinear Points Collinear points are points that lie on the same line. (The line

Collinear Points Collinear points are points that lie on the same line. (The line does not have to be visible. ) A B Collinear Non collinear A B C C

Planes A plane is a flat surface that extends indefinitely in all directions. How to sketch: Use a parallelogram (four sided figure) How to name: 2 ways (1) Capital script letter – Plane M (2) Any 3 non collinear points in the plane - Plane: ABC/ ACB / BAC / BCA / CAB / CBA A B M C Horizontal Plane Vertical Plane Other

Coplanar Objects Coplanar objects (points, lines, etc. ) are objects that lie on the same plane. The plane does not have to be visible. Are the following points coplanar? A, B, C ? Yes A, B, C, F ? No H, G, F, E ? Yes E, H, C, B ? Yes A, G, F ? C, B, F, H ? No

Postulates are statements that are accepted without further justification or proof. Postulates (write this down) Postulate, Two points determine a line. Through any two points there is exactly one line. Postulate, Three points determine a plane. Through any three points not on a line there is exactly one plane.

Collinear points are points that lie on the same line Coplanar points are points

Collinear points are points that lie on the same line Coplanar points are points that lie on the same plane. Coplanar lines are lines that lie on the same plane.

Intersection of Figures The intersection of two figures is the set of points that

Intersection of Figures The intersection of two figures is the set of points that are common in both figures. The intersection of two lines is a point. m Line m and line n intersect at P point P. n Continued…….

3 Possibilities of Intersection of a Line and a Plane (1) Line passes through

3 Possibilities of Intersection of a Line and a Plane (1) Line passes through plane – intersection is a point. (2) Line lies on the plane - intersection is a line. (3) Line is parallel to the plane - no common points. Lesson 1 -1 Point, Line, Plane

Intersection of Two Planes is a Line. B P A R end Plane P

Intersection of Two Planes is a Line. B P A R end Plane P and Plane R intersect at the line
