1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry • Expectation: • G1.1.6: • Recognize Euclidean geometry as an axiom system. Know the key axioms and understand the meaning of and distinguish between undefined terms (e.g., point, line, and plane), axioms, definitions, and theorems. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Undefined Terms 1. 2. 3. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Points 0 dimensional (have no size) Models of points -Dots -Stars in the sky -Cities on a map 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Points Naming points - Use capital letters A 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Lines Perfectly straight extending infinitely without thickness. 1 dimensional Models of Lines - roads - hallway - edge of a box 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Naming Lines l Line l 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
B A Line AB or BA Naming Lines 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Planes Infinite, flat surface without thickness. 2 dimensional Models of Planes • desktop • rooftop • wall 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Drawing Planes 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Naming Planes R Plane R 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Q P R Naming Planes Plane PQR, PRQ, RPQ, RQP, QRP or QPR 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
A B C Collinear Points Defn:Three or more points are collinear iff they are on the same line. A, B and C are collinear. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Coplanar Points Defn: Four or more points are coplanar iff they are on the same plane. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Q S P R Coplanar Points P, Q, R and S are coplanar points. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Segments Defn: A segment is a part of a line that begins at one point and ends at another. The points are called the endpoints of the segment. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Segments A B AB This is not a segment!!! 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
A B The segment with endpoints A and B: denoted AB or BA Segments 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Rays Defn: A ray is a part of a line that starts at a point and extends infinitely in one direction. The point is called the endpoint of the ray. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Z Y The ray with endpoint Y containing Z: denoted YZ (may not be denoted ZY or ZY). Rays 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Angles Defn: An angle is a figure formed by two rays with a common endpoint. The common endpoint is called the vertex of the angle and the two rays are called the sides of the angle. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Angles 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
sides of the angle vertex of the angle Angles 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Naming an Angle There are 3 ways to name an angle: ( represents an angle) • The vertex. 2. A point from each side and the vertex (vertex is between the other points). 3. A number. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry

Intersect and Intersections If 2 figures share one or more points, then they intersect. The point or points they have in common is called their intersection. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Postulates A postulate is a statement that is accepted as being true without proof. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Complete Activity 1.1 on page 12. You may work in pairs. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Intersecting Lines Postulate • If two lines intersect, then their intersection is a point. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Intersecting Planes Postulate • If two planes intersect, then their intersection is a line. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Unique Line Postulate • Through any two distinct points, there is a unique (one and only one) line. • Sometimes this is stated in an alternate form: ”Two points determine exactly one line.” 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Unique Plane Postulate • Through any 3 noncollinear points there is a unique plane. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Flat Plane Postulate • If two points are in a plane, then the line containing them is in the plane. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
Dimension Postulate • Given a line in a plane, there is at least one point in the plane that is not on the line. • Given a plane in space, there is at least one point in space not on the plane. 1.1: The Building Blocks of Geometry
