LESSON 1: Undefined and Defined Terms

Objectives: After going through this lesson, you will be able to describe a mathematical system.

WHAT I NEED TO KNOW

In modern mathematics, we accept certain undefined terms. The choice of the undefined
terms is completely arbitrary and generally to facilitate the development of structure, e.g. point,
plane, number, variable, line etc. then, we defined the other terms of the mathematical system
in terms of undefined terms, e.g. angle, line segment, circle, ray etc.

The following angles are:

An angle is a union of two non-collinear rays with common endpoint. The two non-collinear
rays are the sides of the angle while the common endpoint is the vertex.
