LESSON 3
 POINT
• represented by a dot for it has no
dimension.
• A point is named by a CAPITAL
letter.
A (read as point A)
 LINE
• has no width or thickness and can
be extended without an end.

A B
(read as line AB)
 PLANE
• represented by a shape that looks
like a floor or a wall.
• can be extended indefinitely.
A B
Plane ABCD
D C
 Subsets of a Line
• Line segment – a part of a line
consisting of two endpoints and all
the points in between.

A B
(read as line segment AB)
 Subsets of a Line
• Ray – a part of a line with only one
endpoint and extending in only one
direction.

A B
(read as ray AB)
 ANGLE
• figure formed by two non-collinear
rays with a common endpoint called
vertex.
• Degrees – unit used in measuring
angles.
• Protractor – used in measuring angles.

4. Straight angle – an angle with an
exact measure of 180.
 Definition of Angle Pairs
1. Adjacent Angles –
two angles share a
common vertex and
a side but has no
common endpoints.

2. Complementary Angles – two angles with a
sum of 90. The two angles may or may not
be adjacent.

Formed by Parallel
Lines and Transversal
1. Parallel lines –
coplanar and do not
intersect.
 Definition of Angle
Formed by Parallel
Lines and Transversal
2. Transversal - a line
that intersects two
or more parallel
lines at different
points.
 Definition of Angle Formed
by Parallel Lines and
Transversal
3. Corresponding Angles
– two angles that have
corresponding
positions on the same
side of the transversal.
 Definition of Angle Formed
by Parallel Lines and
Transversal
4. Alternate Interior
Angles – two angles
that lie between the
two lines on the same
side of the transversal.
 Definition of Angle Formed
by Parallel Lines and
Transversal
5. Alternate Exterior
Angles – two angles
that lie outside the two
lines on the same side
of the transversal.
