Geometry
➢ PART A: LINES & ANGLES
Line and Line Segment
• A line is a straight line that extends indefinitely in both the directions.
• A line contains infinite number of points.
• Given any two points on a line, a line segment is a part of line that contains two points and all the
points between them. The two points are called end points.
• Line segments that have equal lengths are called congruent line segments.
• A point that divides a line segment into two congruent line segments is called the mid point of the line
segment.

• In the given figure, points A, B, C and D are on line l.


• Line segment AB contains point A, point B and all the points between A and B.
• AB denotes line segment AB and sometimes its length.
• BC and CD are congruent line segments. Thus, C is the mid-point of line segment BD.
• Infinite number of lines can pass from any given point.
• To define a line, at least two distinct points are required.
Angles
• An angle is formed by the intersection of two line segment, rays or lines.
• The point of intersection is called two vertex and line segments, rays or lines are called two sides of
the angle.

• An angle can be expressed in different ways:


(i) x (ii) B (iii) ABC (iv) CBA
• Angles are classified according to their degree measures.

I. An angle less than 90° is an acute angle.


II. An angle exactly 90° is a right angle. It is denoted by a small square at the vertex.
III. An angle that is more than 90° and less than 180° is an obtuse angle.
IV. An angle measuring 180° is a straight angle.
• The sum of all angles around a point is 360°
• If the total of two angles is 90°, they are called complementary angles.
• If the total of two angles is 180°, they are called supplementary angles.
Lines and Angles
• If two or more angles form a straight line, their total is 180° and they are called linear angles.

• When two different lines intersect, they form four angles.


• a and c consist of a pair of opposite angles and they are equal.
• a and b consist of a pair of adjacent angles and they are supplementary to each other.

• If two different lines do not intersect at any point, they are called parallel lines. They are denoted as
l m.
• Two different lines that are not parallel always intersect at exactly one point.
• Two lines that intersect to form four congruent angles are called perpendicular lines. Each of the four
angles has a measure of 90°. Two lines are denoted as l ⊥ m .

• If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal line, which is not perpendicular to parallel lines, then,
I. Eight angles are formed, out of which four are acute angles and four are obtuse.
II. All acute angles have same measure and all obtuse angles also have same measure.
III. Total of one acute and one obtuse angle is 180°.

➢ PART B: Triangles
• A polygon with 3 sides and 3 vertices is known as a triangle.
• The total of all interior angles of a triangle is 180°.
• The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to sum of two opposite interior angles.

a + b + c = 180
x = a+b
• The length of each side of a triangle must be less than the sum of lengths of other two sides and more
than the difference of lengths of other two sides.

7 – 4 < BC < 7 + 4,
So 3 < BC < 11
• In any triangle, the longest side is opposite to the largest angle and the shortest side is opposite to the
shortest angle. The sides with same lengths have opposite angles with same measure.
AB > a, so c > b

Types of Triangles

AB = BC = AC AB = AC AB ≠ BC ≠ AC
x = y = z = 60 y=z x≠y≠z
Equilateral Isosceles Scalene
• A triangle with all sides equal is an equilateral triangle. An equilateral triangle also has all angles
equal at 60°
• A triangle with at least two sides equal is an isosceles triangle.
• A triangle with no equal sides is a scalene triangle. No angles are equal in a scalene triangle.
• A triangle containing a right angle is called a right triangle. The side opposite to right angle is called
hypotenuse. The other two sides are called two legs. The hypotenuse is the longest side in a right
triangle.

Right triangle Obtuse triangle Acute Triangle


• A triangle containing an obtuse angle is called an obtuse triangle.
• A triangle with all three acute angles is called an acute triangle.

Pythagorean Theorem

a 2 + b2 = c 2 .
• In a right triangle ABC if AC is the hypotenuse with length c, and a and b are the lengths of the two
legs, then a2 + b2 = c2 .
• Some common length measures of right triangles are:

• If inABC B is an obtuse angle, then c2  a2 + b2 . If B is an acute angle, then c2  a2 + b2 .

c 2  a 2 + b2 c 2  a 2 + b2
Area of triangle
1
• The area of a triangle can be given by the formula : Area = base × height
2
• Any side of a triangle can be used as a base. The height that corresponds to the base is the
perpendicular line segment from the opposite vertex to the base (ortheextension of the base).

For all the three triangles Area = (15  6 ) = 45
2

Area of AXY = Area of BXY = Area of CXY = Area of DXY


• All the triangles with two vertices same and the third vertex on the line parallel to the side have the
same area.
• The area of a triangle can also be calculated with the formula :
Area = s ( s − a )( s − b)( s − c )
1
where s = ( a + b + c ) ; a, b, c are the lengths of sides of a triangle.

• The circumcenter is the center of a circle passing through all the vertices.
• The circumcenter of a right triangle is the mid-point of the hypotenuse.

Isosceles Triangle
• In an isosceles triangle the altitude, the median, the angular bisector and the perpendicular bisector
are the same and it passes through the common vertex of two congruent sides.
• If AB = AC, then AD is the angular bisector of A, the median, the altitude as well as the
perpendicular bisector of BC.

Equilateral Triangle
• In an equilateral triangle all the three medians, the altitudes, the angular bisectors and the
perpendicular bisecters are the same.
• All the four centers, the centroid, the orthocenter, the incenter and the circumcenter are also at the
same point.

➢ PART F: Co-ordinate Geometry


• Two real number lines that are perpendicular to each other and that intersect at their respective zero
points define a rectangular co-ordinate system, often called the XY – coordinate system or XY –
plane.
• The horizontal number line is called X – axis and vertical number line is called Y – axis, and the
intersection point is called the origin.

Co-ordinates
• Each point P in the XY – plane can be identified with an ordered pair (x, y) of real numbers and is
denoted as P(x, y).
• For P(x, y) the first number is called the X – Cordinate and the second number is called the
Y – coordinate.
• Points to the right of the Y – axis have positive X – cordinates and those to the left have negative X –
coordinates.
• Points above the X – axis have positive Y – coordinates and those below it have negative Y –
coordinates.
• If a point is on the X – axis, its Y – coordinate is 0.
• If a point is on the Y – axis, its X – coordinate is 0.

Line function
• The equation of a line is a linear equation.
• In a co-ordinate system, the equation of a line is given by,
y = mx + c
where, m is the slope of the line, c is the Y – intercept of the line.

• The point where the line intersects with X – axis is the X – intercept of line and point of intersection
with Y – axis is the Y – intercept of line.
• The X – intercept of any line with the equation y = mx + C can be found out by putting the value of
the Y – coordinate zero.
• The Y – intercept of any line with the equation y = mx + c can be found out by putting the value of X
– coordinate as zero.

Slope
• The slope of a line passing through the two points Q( x1 , y1 ) , R( x2 , y2 ) where x1  x2 is defined as
y2 − y1
m=
x2 − x1 .
• The ratio is often called 'Rise over Run', where the rise is change in Y when moving from Q to R and
the run is the change in X when moving from Q to R.
• A horizontal line (parallel to X – axis) always has a slope 0.
• A vertical line (parallel to Y – axis) always has a slope of .
• When a line passes through the origin, its X and Y – intercepts are zero. So the equation of such a line
is y = mx
• When the slope is 1, y = x, so the rise over run is the same.
• A line with slope 1 makes an angle of 45° with the positive X – axis.
• A line with slope 1 makes an angle of 45° with the negative X – axis.
• As the angle with the positive X – axis increases, the slope increases upto the angle 90° and the slope
is positive.
• As the angle with the negative X – axis increases upto 90°, the slope decreases and the slope is
negative.
• The slope of two parallel lines is the same.
• The product of the slopes of two perpendicular lines is (–1).
