Understanding Geometric Representations: Points, Lines, and Planes

This lesson explains the distinction between the definition of geometric terms and their representations. It covers how points, lines, and planes are represented differently from their definitions. Points are locations without size, lines are collections of points extending infinitely, and planes are flat surfaces extending in all directions. The lesson emphasizes that representations on paper, like dots for points or arrows for lines, are necessary adaptations to visualize these concepts.

Explain why a line segment is not the same as a line.
