Points, Lines and Planes Thanks Mrs. Nicole Takayama Smyrna High School
Point • Has no dimension • Represented by a small dot • Named by a capital print letter • No symbol
A Example SayWrite A “ Point A”
Line • Has one dimension • Extends without end in two directions • Represented by a line with 2 arrowheads • Named by 2 points or a lowercase, script letter • Symbol
Example SayWrite AB BA BC CB AC CA d d “line AB” “line BA” “line BC” “line CB” “line AC” \ “line CA” “line d” C B A
Collinear Points • Points on the same line
Example SayWrite A, B, and C are collinear. They are all on d d “points A, B, and C are collinear. They are all on line d.” C B A
Noncollinear Points • Points not on the same line
Example SayWrite d A, B, and C are noncollinear. A & B are on d, but C is not. “points A, B, and C are noncollinear. Points A and B are on line d, but point C is not.” C B A
Plane • Has 2 dimensions • Flat surface that extends without end • Represented by a parallelogram • Named by three noncollinear points or capital, script letter • No symbol
Example SayWrite ABC P “plane ABC” “plane P” P C B A
Coplanar • On the same plane • Lines can be coplanar • Points can be coplanar
Example SayWrite A, B, & C are coplanar, they lie on P “Points A, B, and C are coplanar. They lie on plane P.” P C B A
Noncoplanar • NOT on the same plane
Example SayWrite BC and AD are noncoplanar “Lines AD and BC are noncoplanar. Line BC lies on plane ABC, while line AD passes through it. P C B A D
Segment • Part of a line • Has a beginning and an end (both are called endpoints) • Named by the two endpoints • Symbol
Example SayWrite AC CA “segment AC” “segment CA” C A
Ray • Part of a line • Has a beginning (called an endpoint) and continues forever in ONE direction • Named by the endpoint and one other point to show direction • Symbol
Example SayWrite AB AC “ray AB” “ray AC” C B A
