1. 10.1 Points, Lines, Planes and Angles

2. Points A point is a location. It has no size or dimension.
It is represented by a dot.
We name a point using capital letters.
Point A A

3. Lines A line is the shortest path connecting two points.
It extends in both directions infinitely
We name a line using any two points on the line.

4. Planes A plane is a flat surface with no thickness.
It extends in all directions infinitely.
Plane P P

5. Parts of a line
A ray has a point at one end and extends infinitely in the other direction.
A line segment is the portion of a line connecting two points including the endpoints

6. Angles
An angle is formed by two rays with a common endpoint called the vertex.
The angle below can be named in the following ways:  1, B, ABC, CBA A 1 B C

7. Angles continued
An angle can be thought of as the rotation between two rays.
The ray where the rotation begins is called the initial side.
The ray where the rotation ends is called the terminal side
Terminal side
Initial side

8. Measuring angles
Angles are measured by the amount of rotation from the initial side to the terminal side.
One way to measure angles is in degrees
One degree or 1° is 1/360 of a complete rotation.
A complete rotation is 360°
Angles are measured using protractors.

9. Angles and their degrees
An quarter rotation is 90°, a right angle.
An acute angle is less than 90°
A half rotation is 180°, a straight angle.
An obtuse angle is between 90° and 180°
Right
Acute
Obtuse
Straight

10. Complementary and Supplementary
Complementary angles are angles whose measures have a sum of 90°
Supplementary angles are angles whose measures have a sum of 180°
Find the supplement and complement of 25°

11. Example: Find the numbered angle1
54 °
62 ° 2

12. Example
If 1 and 2 are supplementary and 1 is 66° more than 2, find the measure of each angle.

13. Vertical Angles
When two lines intersect, the angles opposite one another are called vertical angles. Vertical angles have the same measure (i.e.are congruent).
Find the numbered angles. 1
68° 2 3

14. Parallel lines
When two parallel lines are intersected by a line it is called a transversal.
*3 & 6 are alternate interior angles.
*1 & 8 are alternate exterior angles.
*1 & 5 are corresponding angles 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

15. Example
