Point: A point is a location in space. It is represented by a dot. Point are usually named with a upper case letter. For example, we refer to the following as "point A"
We can also say a point is the intersection of two lines.
Line: A line is a collection of points that extend forever. The following is a line. The two arrows are used to show that it extends forever.
We can also say that a line is the intersection between two planes.
Line segment: A line segment is part of a line. The following is a segment. A segment has two endpoints. The endpoints in the following segments are A and F. Notice also that the line has no endpoints.
Ray: A ray is a collection of points that begin at one point (an endpoint) and extend forever on one direction. The following is a ray.

Angle: Two rays with the same endpoint is an angle. The following is an angle.
Plane: A plane is a flat surface like a piece of paper. It extends in all directions. We can use arrows to show that it extends in all directions forever. The following is a plane
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TWO STRAIGHT LINES
Two lines can be:
Parallel lines : When two lines never meet in space or on a plane no matter how long we extend them, we say that they are parallel lines The following lines are parallel.
Intersecting lines: When lines meet in space or on a plane, we say that they are intersecting lines . The following are intersecting lines.
Perpendicular lines: A line is perpendicular to another if it meets or crosses it at right angles (90°).

Type
of
Angle
Description
Acute Angle an angle that is less than 90°
Right Angle an angle that is 90° exactly
Obtuse Angle
an angle that is greater than 90° but less than 180°
Straight Angle an angle that is 180° exactly
Reflex Angle
an angle that is greater than 180° and less than 360o
Pairs
of
Angles
When parallel lines get crossed by another line (which is called aTransversal), you can see that many angles are the same, as in this example:
These angles can be made into pairs of angles which have special names.
Parallel lines
Vertical angles:
a=d;
c=b;
e=h;

Complementary
Angles
Two Angles are Complementary if they add up to 90 degrees (a Right Angle).
These two angles (40° and 50°) are Complementary Angles, because they add up to 90°.
Notice that together they make a right angle.
BASIC GEOMETRY
09_BASIC GEOMETRY Página 7 de 31
But the angles don't have to be together.
These two are complementary
because 27° + 63° = 90°
Supplementary
Angles
Two Angles are Supplementary if they add up to 180 degrees.
These two angles (140° and 40°) are Supplementary Angles, because they add up to 180°. Notice that together they make
a straight angle.

basic geometry| polygons
Polygon:
When the polygonal line is closed we´ve got a polygon. Polygons are 2‐dimensional shapes. They are made of straight lines, and the shape is "closed" (all the lines connect up). Which is a polygon?
TYPES OF POLYGONES BASED ON WHETHER THEY ARE CONVEX OR CONCAVE
The polygons can be
….Concave or Convex
A convex polygon has no angles pointing inwards. More precisely, no internal angles can be more than 180°.
If there are any internal angles greater than 180° then it is concave. (Think: concave has a "cave" in it)
Convex Concave
TYPES OF POLYGONES BASED ON WHETHER THEY ARE REGULAR O IRREGULAR
Regular or Irregular
If all angles are equal and all sides are equal, then it is regular, otherwise it is irregular
Regular Irregular
