The most basic figures in


geometry are undefined terms,
which cannot be defined by using
other figures. The undefined
terms point, line, and plane are
the building blocks of geometry.

Points that lie on the same line are collinear.


K, L, and M are collinear. K, L, and N are
noncollinear. Points that lie on the same
plane are coplanar. Otherwise they are
noncoplanar.

A postulate, or axiom, is a
statement that is accepted as true
without proof. Postulates about
points, lines, and planes help
describe geometric properties.

An intersection is the set of all points that two


or more figures have in common. The next
two postulates describe intersections
involving lines and planes.

Use a dashed line to show the


hidden parts of any figure that
you are drawing. A dashed line
will indicate the part of the figure
that is not seen.
