TABLE OF CONTENTS
A point in geometry is a location. It has no size, no width, no length and no depth. A point is
represented by a dot and is denoted by a capital letter.
A line is defined as the set of points that extends infinitely in two opposite directions. It has one
dimensioncalled length. Points that are on the same line are called collinear points.

A line is defined by two points. Consider figure 1, the line is named as line p or line AB or line BA. In
symbols AB or BA. Points A and B are collinear points.
To visualize a plane, think of a flat surface that extends in all directions. It has two dimensions, the
length and the width. It has no thickness. A plane is named by three non-collinear points in the plane.

Figure 1
In figure 1, the segment can be named as segment AB or segment BA. In symbols AB or BA.
Examples of line segments include the sides of a triangle or a square.
A ray is a subset of a line with one endpoint and all other points on one side of the line. Since, it
extends in one direction infinitely, it cannot be measured. It is named by two points, with the endpoint
written first. The arrow above the letters should always point to the right. The arrangement of the letters in
its name indicates the direction of the ray.
E D C
Figure 2
In figure 2, the ray can be named as ray CD or ray CE. In symbols CD or CE .
Opposite rays are two collinear rays that have a common endpoint and extend to opposite directions.
Common end point
Y X Z
The set of points of a line can be put into one-to-one correspondence with the set of real numbers.
This means that each real number corresponds to a distinct point of a line.
A B C D E F G H I J
-5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4
A real number that corresponds to a point is the coordinate of the point.
The length of the segment is the absolute value of the difference of the coordinates of the points.
A B
a b
AB = / a – b/ or / b – a /
Ruler Postulate states that the points of a line and the real numbers can be placed into one-to-one
correspondence and the distance between two distinct points is the absolute value of the difference of their
coordinates. Writing the coordinates of a point on the line is using small letters. Thus, for the coordinate of
point A is a and for point B is b.
Example : Find the length of segment AB in the figure. In the adjoining figure, a = -4 and b = 10
Solution :
AB = / a – b / = / b – a /
AB = /(-4) – 10/ A B
= / -14/
= 14 -4 10

Segment Addition Postulate states that if three points P, Q, and R are collinear and Q is Between P
and R, then PQ + QR = PR
Example 1: In the figure, show that PQ + QR = PR
P Q R
-7 -4 1
Solution : PQ + QR = PR
/-7 – (-4)/ + /(-4) – 1/ = /(-7) – 1/
/-3/ + /-5/ = /-8/
3+5=8
Example 2 : Find AB and BC if AC = 26 A B C
Solution : AB + BC = AC 6x + 2 2x
/6x + 2/ + /2x/ = 26
8x + 2 = 26 AB = 6x + 2 = 6(3) + 2 = 18 + 2 =20
8x = 24 BC = 2x = 2(3) = 6
x=3
Midpoint Postulate states that if point B is a midpoint of segment AC if B is between A and C then
AB = BC = ½ AC.
Illustration : A B C
-2 3 8
B is the midpoint of AC since
AB = BC = ½ AC
/-2 – 3/ = /3 – 8/ = ½ /(-2) – 8/
5 = 5 = 5
𝑎+𝑐 𝑐+𝑎
To find for the coordinate of the Midpoint = 2 = 2
𝑎+𝑐 −2+8 6 𝑐+𝑎 8+(−2) 6
Coordinate of midpoint B is b = 2 = 2 = 2 = 3 or b = 2 = 2 = 2 = 3
Example 1: Find the coordinate of the midpoint P of segment MN in the figure.
M P N
10 p 16
Solution : let p be the coordinate of the midpoint.
𝑚+𝑛 10+16 26 𝑛+𝑚 16+10 26
P= = = = 13 or p = = = = 13
2 2 2 2 2 2
Another solution :
p = 10 + ½ MN p = 10 + ½ /10 – 16/ p = 13
To find for the number of segments that can be determined given the number of points on the line :
𝒏(𝒏−𝟏)
Use S = 𝟐 where S is the number of segments and n is the number of points on the line
Example 2 : Find the number of segments given the number of points (n) in the line.
a.n = 1 b. n = 2 c. n = 3

Learning Activity Sheet in Grade 9 Geometry
Solution :
𝑛(𝑛−1) 1(1−1) 3(0) 0
a. S = 2 = 2 = 2 =2 =0
Hence, using 1 point A there is no segment formed. A
For the number of rays that can be named the formula is R = 2(n – 1), where R is the number of
rays and n is the number of points on the line.
Example : find the number of rays given the number of point.
a. 1 b. 2 c. 3
Solution :
a. R = 2(n – 1) = 2(1 – 1) = 0 ; hence no ray can be named
A
b. R = 2(n – 1) = 2(2 – 1) = 2(1) = 2
2 rays can be named. These are AB and BA A B
Learning Competency :
A. The students should be able to identify and name the subsets of a line, the segment and the rays.

POLYGONS
Polygons are many-sided figures, with sides that are line segments. Polygons are named according to
the number of sides and angles they have. It is a closed plane figure formed by the union of noncollinear
segments (the sides) at their endpoints forming a vertex. The vertices of a polygon are designated by upper-
case letters. A polygone is named by its vertices in order. It seperates a plane into three sets of points: points
in the exterior of the polygon; the polygon itself or points on the polygon; and points in the interior of the
polygon.

Learning Activity Sheet in Grade 9 Geometry
This activity sheet serves as a self-learning guide for the learners. It aims students’ mastery on how
to identify, illustrate and name a triangle.
Definition:
Triangle
A triangle is a polygon that contains three (3) sides. The sides are named as segments
and the common intersection of any two sides is called the vertex.
Illustrative Examples:
1. B
Given: ∆𝐴𝐵𝐶 (Triangle ABC)
A C
Every triangle has 3 altitudes, 3 medians, 3 angle bisectors and these are called its secondary parts.
1. Altitude is the segment drawn from a vertex of a triangle to the point on the line containing
the opposite side such that the segment and the line intersect to form right angles.
