but not self-evident
Intersecting lines
Coincident lines
Skew lines

Basic Concepts
• Rays – part of a line with one endpoint
• Angle – two RAYS with a common
endpoint
– Vertex
– Sides
– Straight Angle
– Acute
– Right Angle
– Obtuse Angle
NOTE!!!
• Perimeter of a polygon – sum of the
length of its sides
• Diagonal – line segment joining two
nonadjacent vertices of a polygon

𝐴= 𝑏1 + 𝑏2 ℎ
2
• Circle
𝐴 = 𝜋𝑟 2
𝐶 = 𝜋𝑑 = 2𝜋𝑟
Similar Plane
Figures
• Similar if and only if same shape
• In polygons, angles must be congruent and
corresponding sides are proportional
• Moreover, if two plane figures are similar,
the ratio of their areas is equal to the ratio
of the squares of any of their
corresponding lines
