Geometric Figures and Their Meanings

This document defines and provides examples of common geometric figures and their meanings, including points, lines, planes, space, and various relationships between geometric elements. Points have no length, area, or volume, lines are straight and have no thickness, planes extend infinitely in two dimensions, and space refers to the infinite three-dimensional region. Examples are also given for collinear points that lie on the same line, coplanar points that lie in the same plane, line segments with defined endpoints, rays with an endpoint extending infinitely in one direction, and various types of angles. Parallel lines, perpendicular lines, skew lines, and intersecting lines are also defined based on their relationships.

Geometric Figures and Their Meanings

A.)Point

Refers to an element of some set called space


Geometric points do not have any length, area, volume or any other dimensional attribute

Example in real life:

Points in Geometry:

B.) Line

A long thin mark made by a pen, pencil, etc.


Is straight (no curves)
Has no thickness
Extends on both directions without end (infinitely)

Line in Geometry:

C.) Plane
Flat, two dimensional surface that extends infinitely.
Two dimensional analog of a point, a line and three dimensional space
Can rise as subspaces of some higher dimensional space .
Plane in Geometry:

D.) Space
A set of elements or points satisfying specified geometric postulates
The infinite extension of the three dimensional region in which all matter exists.

E.) Collinear Points


Points that lie on a single straight line
Points that hang out on the same line together
Example in real life:

Collinear Points in Geometry:

F.) Coplanar Points

A set of points, lines, line segments, rays or any other geometrical shapes that lie on the same
plane

Example in real life:

Coplanar Points in Geometry:

G.) Segment
Part of a line that connects two points
Has definite end points
Example in real life:

Segment in geometry:

H.) Ray
A line with an endpoint that extends infinitely in one direction.
One dimensional, has zero width It has no measurable length
Example in real life:

Ray in Geometry:

I.)Angles
The amount of turn between two straight lines that have common end point
There are different kinds of angles, for examples are the following:

Right Angle - An angle that is exactly 90

Example in real life:

Right Angle in Geometry:

Acute Angle - an angle that is less than 90

Example in real life:

Reflex Angle - an angle that is greater than 180

Example in real life:

Acute angle in Geometry:

Reflex angle in geometry:

Obtuse Angle - an angle that is greater than 90 but less than 180

Example in real life:

Obtuse Angle in Geometry:

J.) Parallel Lines


Lines in a plane that do not meet or intersect
Always the same distance apart
Example in real life:

Parallel lines In Geometry:

K.) Perpendicular Lines


Two lines which meet at a right angle (90)
Example in real life:

Perpendicular Lines in Geometry:

L.) Skew Lines


Are two lines that do not intersect and are not parallel
Lines that can only exist in three or more dimension
Example in real life:

Skew Lines in Geometry:

J.)Intersecting lines
Intersecting lines are two
that share exactly one

lines
point.
This
called

shared point is
the point of
intersection.

Example in real life:

Intersecting Lines in Geometry:
