What is

11
What is
Geometry?
12
Geometry is a branch of
mathematics that deals with
the study of shapes, sizes,
figures, spaces, and all
quantities related to the things
you see on Earth.
13
Why do
we do
Geometry
?
14
We do geometry to discover
patterns, find areas,
volumes, lengths and angles,
and better understand the
world around us.
15
The word geometry is a
conglomeration of the Greek
words “geo” and “metron”.
Geo : means “Earth”
Metron: means “measurement”
16
In short, geometry is
the mathematical
study of Earth
measurement.
Geometry is grounded on the
idea that everything around
us is made up of smaller
geometric units called points,
lines, and planes.
18

The Father of
Geometry
•Points, lines, and
planes are collectively
called UNDEFINED
TERMS.
19
because of the obvious idea
that it is not possible to
define them formally
20
Students, close your eyes
and imagine the stars in the
sky at night. Then open your
eyes how do the stars in the
sky look like?
POINT
❖ Has NO part.
❖ Has position but with NO spatial magnitude, size, or
dimension.
❖ Has NO width.
❖ Has NO thickness.
❖ Can be represented by a small dot on paper using the
tip of the pencil.
❖ Locations of places on a map are also an example of points.
22
These points are said “Point
A,” “Point L”, and “Point F.”
Points are labeled with a
CAPITAL letter.
23
24
LINE
❑ Is a geometric figure which has NO width.
❑ Has NO thickness.
❑ Is a geometric figure which has NO width.
❑ Extends indefinitely in opposite directions.
❑ Can be imagined to be a very long pencil or rope where
the starting point and the ending point cannot be seen.
25
o Line PQ
o Line g
A line, like a point, does not take up space. It
has direction, location and is always straight.
Lines are one-dimensional because they
only have length (no width).
A line can be named or identified using
any two points on that line or with a
lower-case, italicized letter.
PLANE
❖ Is a surface which lies evenly with straight
lines on itself.
❖ Is a two-dimensional (2-D) figure that HAS
length and width.
❖ Has NO thickness.
❖ Some physical models of a plane include wall,
floor, and window.
Plane
ABC
Think of a plane as a huge
sheet of paper that goes on
forever.
Planes are two-dimensional
because they have a length
and a width.
A plane can be classified by
any three points in the plane.
29
• 1. COLLINEAR points -
three or more points that lie
on a straight line.
30
Some preliminary DEFINED TERMS in geometry:
Obviously, two points are always
collinear because they
determine a line.
Where do points I, R and S
lie?
31
How about point H, is point H collinear
with the other three points? Why?
2. COPLANAR points - three
or more points lie on the
same plane.
32
Some preliminary DEFINED TERMS in geometry:
Where can you locate point
K, L, and M?
33
When points lie on the same
plane, how will you describe
them?
Describe point N, is point N
coplanar with the other three
points?
• 3. INTERSECTION of two
lines : refers to the point
common to both lines, that
is, the point that can be
found on both lines.

Let us Play: tic tac toe
Two players will compete. The first who can make five consecutive
points in a line will be the winner. First round put all your dots on the
plane. Block the way of your opponent and aim to put all your dots on
a line. If there’s no five consecutive dots formed, move your dots with
the same goal, one step at a time. Be wise to win!

• A point is named using a capital
letter.
• A line is named using two capital
letters representing any two points
that lie on the line or using a
lowercase script letter. The line
notation using two points also
includes a double-headed arrow ( )
above of the two capital letters.
A plane is named using a single script
uppercase letter or using any three
points on the plane that do not lie on
a straight line, in no specific order.
64
COLLINEAR points - three or more points
that lie on a straight line. Obviously, two
points are always collinear because they
determine a line.
COPLANAR points - three or more points
lie on the same plane.

point common to both lines, that is, the
point that can be found on both lines.

Editor's Notes

  • #2 Today, we will be discussing about Undefined and Defined Terms of Geometry
  • #3 Our objectives:
  • #4 give your observation/ideas about the pictures. First and 2nd pictures are the magnificent buildings, 3rd is Egypt’s Great Pyramid and lastIndia’s Taj Mahal
  • #5 From the pictures shown, What did the architect use in designing the building? He uses concepts for structures and turn those concepts into images and plans
  • #6 What did the architect use in designing the building? Correct! He uses concepts for structures and turn those concepts into images and plans
  • #7 From the pictures shown, What did the architect use in designing the building? He uses concepts for structures and turn those concepts into images and plans
  • #8 He Consider designs And that’s because of Geometry
  • #9 He Consider designs And that’s because of Geometry
  • #10 He Consider designs And that’s because of Geometry
  • #11 What did the architect use in designing the building? He uses concepts for structures and turn those concepts into images and plans Consider designs
  • #12 What did the architect use in designing the building? He uses concepts for structures and turn those concepts into images and plans Consider designs
  • #16 Where does geometry come from?
  • #19 According to Euclid of Alexandria, Egypt, The Father of Geometry
  • #20 Why points, lines and planes considered undefined terms of geometry?
  • #21 The starts in the sky at night looks like points. What is point?
  • #22 These are the characteristics of a point
  • #24 Showing you a thin wire, try describing the wire. How it looks like?
  • #25 What is a line?
  • #27 Showing a clean sheet of paper and the blackboard. How will you describe the objects?
  • #28 What is a plane?
  • #30 Here are some examples of point, line and plane. 1. point p etc
  • #31 Are the undefined terms clear? Any questions or clarification? If none, let us proceed to the Defined Terms.
  • #32 Q:Where do points I, R and S lie? A: Points that lie on the same line are called collinear points. Q:How about point H, is point H collinear with the other three points? Why? A:No, because point H does not lie on line l.
  • #34 Where can you locate point k, l, and m? Points K, L and M are located on plane P. When points lie on the same plane, how will you describe them? Points K, L, and M are Coplanar points. Describe point N, is point N coplanar with the other three points? Point N lies on plane O, hence, it is not coplanar with points K, L and M.
  • #35 Line p intersect line Q at point O. O is the point of intersection
  • #36 Differentiate collinear and non-collinear points. How about coplanar and non-coplanar points
  • #58 For 1 minute, give your own example pictorial models of point, line or plane.
  • #60 Let the students show their works and explain it. Have on representative in each group.
  • #61 Let the students show their works and explain it. Have on representative in each group.
  • #64 What is point What is line What is plane
  • #65 Differentiate collinear and non-collinear points Differentiate coplanar and non-coplanar points What is intersection of two lines
  • #66 For our assessment: you will be answering by group. Group a-answer test a, group b-test item b and so on
