What is a point in geometry?

Back

A point is a specific location in space that has no size, dimension, or shape. It is usually represented by a dot and labeled with a capital letter.

Front

Define a line in geometry.

Back

A line is a straight one-dimensional figure that extends infinitely in both directions. It has no endpoints and is usually represented by two points on the line.

Front

What is a line segment?

Back

A line segment is a part of a line that is bounded by two distinct endpoints. It has a definite length.

Front

What is a ray in geometry?

Back

A ray is a part of a line that starts at a point and extends infinitely in one direction.

Front

Define a plane in geometry.

Back

A plane is a flat, two-dimensional surface that extends infinitely in all directions. It is defined by three non-collinear points.

Front

What is the difference between a line and a line segment?

Back

A line extends infinitely in both directions, while a line segment has two endpoints and a definite length.

Front

What are complementary angles?

Back

Complementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 90 degrees.

Front

What are supplementary angles?

Back

Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 180 degrees.
