1. . Geometry A POINT A point is an exact location in space.
A point has no length or width.
To identify a point you use a dot and name it with a capital letter.
For example: point A would look like this - A .
You would say this is “Point A.”

2. Geometry
Line:
A line is a straight path of points that never ends. It goes on forever in two directions.
When you draw a line you name it by using any two letters on the line. Another way to name a line is to use a single small letter. . A . B a

The symbol for the
line has arrowheads,
just like the drawing
of the line.

both ends to show that
the line goes on forever
in both directions.

Intersecting lines are lines that cross. They cross at a point.
For example, think about streets that meet and cross at intersections. . A B E D C
Line AB intersects line CD at point E.

A square corner is
a right angle.

Parallel lines are always the same distance apart. They will never cross, or intersect, one another, like railroad tracks.
Line EF is parallel to line GH. . E F G H

8. Geometry
Think of a line as a rope that never ends. You can cut the rope into pieces. Each piece is a segment of a the rope.
LINE SEGMENT
A line segment is a part of a line.
You name a line segment by using its two endpoints. A B .
Line segment AB or line segment BA.

A ray is a part of a line. It has one endpoint and goes on forever in one direction. . O B
Use the endpoint as the
first letter when writing
the name of a ray.

One-headed arrow, say
“ray.”

An angle is formed when two rays meet at an endpoint.
The endpoint is called the vertex of the angle. . B A C
Point B is the vertex of the angle.

11. Geometry
You can name an angle by writing the point on one ray, the vertex, and the point on the other ray.
When you see a sharp corner symbol say “angle.” . B A C
Angle ABC or angle CBA
The vertex is always written in the middle.

Obtuse angles measure greater than 90 degrees. . M N O
Angle MNO is greater than 90 degrees so it is an OBTUSE angle!

14. Geometry . RIGHT ANGLES M N O KINDS OF ANGLES
You can name angles by how the measure compared to 90 degrees.
RIGHT ANGLES
Right angles measure exactly 90 degrees. . M N O
Angle MNO is 90 degrees so it is a right angle!

Polygons
The name of a polygon depends on the number of sides it has.
A polygon that has all sides the same length and all angles the same measure is called a regular polygon.

19. Geometry Quadrilaterals A quadrilateral has 4 sides.
Some quadrilaterals have more than one name.
This quadrilateral is also called a trapezoid.
A trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel lines.

20. Geometry Quadrilaterals A quadrilateral has 4 sides.
These quadrilaterals are also called parallelograms.
A parallelogram has two pairs of sides that are the same length and are parallel.
The sides marked in red are parallel to each other. They are the same length. The sides marked in green are parallel to each other. They are the same length.

21. Geometry Let’s look at just the parallelograms!
Each of these two parallelograms is also called a rhombus.
A rhombus has all sides the same length.

Each of these two parallelograms is also called a rectangle.
A rectangle has 4 right angles.

When you slide a figure, it doesn’t change in any way except that it is now in a different place.
Another name for a slide is a translation.

46. Geometry Transformations
When you flip a figure across a line, the new figure looks like a reflection of the original figure.
Another name for a flip is a reflection.
The line is called a line of reflection. The two figures are mirror images of one another.
