The document describes terms that are defined and undefined in geometry. It discusses how an axiomatic structure is needed in mathematical systems and geometry. Key points include:
- Points, lines, and planes are undefined terms that are described.
- Defined terms include collinear points, non-collinear points, coplanar points, segments, and rays.
- Examples are provided to illustrate the different terms and to have students practice identifying them.

1. Teaching /Modelling
Illustrative example:
A B
D C
Statements:
1. The corner of the box represents a point.
2. The edge of the box represents a line. 3. The top of the box represents a plane. 4. Points E and F are collinear. 5. Points A,B, C are noncollinear. 6. Points C,D,E,F are coplanar. 7. Points C,D,G,H are non coplanar. 8. The extending lines below the box represents a ray.
2. Analysis
1. What is a point? How do you describe it?
2. What is a line? How do you describe it? 3. What is a plane? How do you describe it? 4. What can you say about collinear points? 5. What do you mean by non-collinear points? 6. What can you say about coplanar points? 7. What do you mean by non-coplanar points? 8. What can you say about the ray?
4. Guided Practice
Consider the figure at the right to name and identify the following. 1. points collinear with points T 2. two segments coplanar with plane J. B T C 3. non-coplanar points 4. two points that are not collinear with point H J XH D 5. name two rays J X Y F
2 4. Independent Practice Use the figure to answer the following.
1. 3 collinear points 2. two non-collinear points to line 3. 4 coplanar points 4. 3 non-coplanar points 5. Name 3 rays
5. Generalization
Point denotes a position in space and has no dimension. When represented by a
dot,it is named by capital letters. A This is point A.
Line is infinitely long, that is, it extends on both directions without
end. This is line AB. A B Plane is a flat surface. It extends infinitely in all directions.
Plane A
Collinear points are points on the same line.
Non-collinear points are points not on the same line.
Coplanar points are points on the same plane.
3 Non-coplanar points are points not on the same plane.
Segment is a part of a line consisting of two points and all points between them.
A B segment AB
Ray is a part of a line that starts at an endpoint (point at one end or the starting point) and extends infinitely in one direction. A ray A
6. ASSESSMENT
