Skateboard Sales • About how many skateboards will the shop sell in June? • What do you estimate for sales in July? August? • Are you comfortable making a guess about next December?
Terminology & Basic Principles Unit Essential Question: How do you identify the basic notations, definitions, properties, and postulates of geometry?
What is Geometry? Geometry
Patterns Essential Question: How do you use inductive reasoning?
Continue the Patterns: • 1, 3, 5, … • 5, 11, 18, 26, … • 1, 4, 9, 16, … • Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, …
Vocabulary • Inductive Reasoning – Reasoning based on patterns that you observe. • Conjecture – A conclusion you reach based on inductive reasoning. • Counterexample – An example for which the conjecture is incorrect.
Make a Conjecture • What is the sum of the first 30 odd numbers? • (Hint: Look for a pattern)
Conjecture • What is the sum of the first 20 even numbers? • Conjecture: 202
Come up with Counterexamples: • Boys are smarter than girls. • Every prime number is odd. • The square of a number is greater than the number. • You can connect three points to form a triangle. • Every rectangle is a square.
Think, Pair, Share: • What is the goal of using inductive reasoning? • How does inductive reasoning work?
What do you think? • If you have two points, how many lines can you draw through them? • If two lines intersect, what is their intersection? • If two planes intersect, what is their intersection?
Points, Lines, & Planes Essential Questions: What are the basic terms in Geometry?
Points • Point (undefined) – • Name with the capital letter used to label the point.
Lines- • Line (undefined) – Name with any two points on the line, or with a single lower case letter: • AB, n • Collinear – Points that lie on the same line.
Planes • Plane (undefined) – • Plane P, Plane ABC, … • Coplanar – Points that lie on the same plane. • Name the plane for the front of the ice cube, using 3 non-collinear points.
Postulates • Postulate or Axiom – A statement taken as fact. • If you have 2 points, how many lines can you draw through them? • Postulate 1-1: Through any two points there is exactly one line.
Intersection of two lines • If two lines cross, what do they have in common? • Postulate 1-2: If two lines intersect, then their intersection is exactly one point.
Intersection of two Planes • If two planes cross, what is their intersection? • Postulate 1-3: If two planes intersect, then their intersection is exactly one line.
Wobbly chairs • Why do chairs sometimes wobble? • Why doesn’t a tripod wobble? • Postulate 1-4: Three noncollinear points determine exactly one plane. • How many planes contain the same 3 collinear points?
Planes: • Are A, B, G, and H coplanar? If so, shade the plane. • Are B, D, H, and E coplanar? If so, shade the plane. • How many planes contain X, S, and Y? • What is the intersection of Plane VSY and Plane ZYC?
Give an example of: • Two intersecting Lines: • A Line intersecting a Plane: • Two intersecting Planes: • Two planes that do not intersect:

Segments, Rays, & Parallel Lines Essential Question: What are segments, rays, and parallel lines?
Vocabulary • Segment – the part of a line consisting of endpoints and the points between them. • Ray – The part of a line consisting of an endpoint and all the points on one side. • Opposite Rays – Two distinct collinear rays with the same endpoint.
Naming Segments & Rays • Name all the segments: • Name all the rays: • Name all the opposite rays:
Lines that do not Intersect • What do you call lines that do not intersect? • Parallel – Coplanar lines that do not intersect. • Skew – Noncoplanar lines. • When are segments and rays parallel or skew? • Parallel Planes – Planes that do not intersect.
Parallel & Skew • Name all segments parallel to GJ. • Name all segments skew to GJ. • Name a line parallel to Plane ABC. • Name a pair of parallel planes.
Create a Segment • Create a Segment that is 4 Inches long:
Measuring Segments Essential Question: How do you find the length of a segment?
Ruler Postulate • Ruler Postulate – The points of a line can be put into a one-to-one correspondence with the real numbers so that the distance between any two points is the absolute value of the difference between their corresponding numbers. • Huh?
Example • If A = -3, B = -1, C = 2, D = 4, and E = 5 • Is ? Why or why not? • Compare AB, BC, and AC. What do you see?
Segment Addition Postulate • Why collinear? • Why is B between? • What if there are different letters?
Midpoint • Where do you think that a midpoint would be located on a segment? • What might make a good definition? • Midpoint – A point on a segment that divides it into two congruent segments. A B
Compare & Contrast Segment Addition Postulate & Midpoints • Similarities • Differences
Word Splash ANGLE
Measuring Angles Essential Question: How do you find the measure of an angle?
What is an Angle? • Angle – Two rays with the same endpoint. • Sides • Vertex
Example • Is it safe to name either angle ?
What does this mean? • Try and create a 73º angle.
Angle Classifications • Acute • Right • Obtuse • Straight
Congruent Angles • When are Angles Congruent? • Is it the length of their sides? • Is it the angle of their openings?
