UNDEFINED TERMS
In mathematical system we
come across many terms which
cannot be precisely defined.
In modern mathematics we
accept certain undefined terms.
EXAMPLES ...
POINT
a point indicates a location (or
position) in space.
a point has no dimension (actual size).
a point has no length, no width, and
no height (thickness).
EXAMPLES ...
POINT
a point is usually named with a capital
letter.
in the coordinate plane, a point is named
by an ordered pair, (x,y).
while we represent a point with a dot, the
dot can be tiny or large.
remember, a point has no size.
POINT
Points
have no
size. They
simply
represent a
location.
EXAMPLES ...
LINE (straight line)
a line has no thickness.
a line's length extends in one dimension.
a line goes on forever in both directions.
a line has infinite length, zero width, and
zero height.
EXAMPLES ...
LINE (straight line)
a line is assumed to be straight.
a line is drawn with arrowheads on both
ends.
a line is named by a single lowercase
script letter, or by any two (or more) points
which lie on the line.
LINE (straight line)
Lines can be
labeled with a single
script letter, or by
two points on the
line,
The thickness of a
line makes no
difference.
EXAMPLES ...
PLANE
a plane has two dimensions.
a plane forms a flat surface extending
indefinitely in all directions.
a plane has infinite length, infinite width
and zero height (thickness).
EXAMPLES ...
PLANE
a plane is drawn as a four-sided figure
resembling a tabletop or a parallelogram.
a plane is named by a single letter (plane
m) or by three coplanar, but non-collinear,
points (plane ABC).
PLANE
Plane m or Plane
ABC. While the
diagram of a
plane has edges,
you must
remember that
the plane has no
boundaries.
NOTE ! ! !
Collinear points are points
that lie on the same
straight line.
Coplanar points are points
that lie in the same plane.

variable
DEFINED TERMS
We defined the other
terms of the
mathematical system
in terms of undefined
terms.
EXAMPLES ...
LINE SEGMENT
a part of a line that is bounded by two
distinct end points
contains every point on the line between
its endpoints
a closed line segment includes both
endpoints
EXAMPLES ...
LINE SEGMENT
an open line segment excludes both
endpoints.
a half-open line segment includes exactly
one of the endpoints.
LINE SEGMENT
EXAMPLES ...
RAY
a ray can be defined as a part of a line
that has a fixed starting point but no
end point.
it can extend infinitely in one
direction.
RAY
EXAMPLES ...
OPPOSITE RAYS
both rays must start from the
same point
must go the opposite direction
must form a line
OPPOSITE RAYS
The starting point for the rays ZX and
ZY is Z, and then they both go the
opposite direction that makes two
opposite rays: ZX and ZY.
EXAMPLES ...
ANGLES
an angle can be defined as the
figure formed by two rays meeting
at a common end point.
an angle is represented by the
symbol ∠.

AXIOMS/POSTULATES
Early Greeks considered
postulates as general
truths common to all
studies and axioms as the
truths relating to the special
study at hand.
AXIOMS
is derived from the Greek word
‘Axioma’ meaning ‘true
without needing a proof’.
you do not need a proof to
state its truth as it is evident in
itself.
