Identify, name, and draw points, lines, segments, rays, and planes.

Objectives Identify, name, and draw points, lines, segments, rays, and planes. Apply basic facts about points, lines, and planes.

Vocabulary undefined term point line plane collinear coplanar segment endpoint ray opposite rays postulate

The most basic figures in geometry are undefined terms, which cannot be defined by using other figures. The undefined terms point, line, and plane are the building blocks of geometry.

Directions: In pencil With your partner, fill out any of the definitions, how to name, and examples that you already know See what you remember!

K L M N Points that lie on the same line are collinear. K, L, and M are collinear. K, L, and N are noncollinear. Points that lie on the same plane are coplanar. Otherwise they are noncoplanar.

Possible answer: AE, BE, CE Example 1: Naming Points, Lines, and Planes A. Name four coplanar points. A, B, C, D B. Name three lines.

Check It Out! Example 1 Use the diagram to name two planes. Possible answer: PlaneRand plane ABC.

N M T Example 2: Drawing Segments and Rays Draw and label each of the following. A. a segment with endpoints M and N. B. opposite rays with a common endpoint T.

M N Check It Out! Example 1 Draw and label a ray with endpoint M that contains N.

Check it out: Example 2 Name three collinear points

Check it out: Example 4 Name a plane from the figure below

Check it out: Example 5 Name two rays from the figure below
