POINT– it indicates a
specific location and is
represented by a dot and a
letter, but it has no
dimensions

extends without end in two
opposite directions

Segments, Rays
and Distances
RAY – a part of a line
that begins at one point,
called the ENDPOINT
and extends without end
in one direction

LINE SEGMENT - part of
a line that begins at one
endpoint and ends at
another

POSTULATES - accepted
as true without proof
RULER POSTULATE
The points on any line
can be paired with the
real numbers in such a
way that any point can
be paired with 0 and any
other point can be
paired with 1.
The real number paired
with each point is the
coordinate of that point.
The distance between any
two points on the line is
equal to the absolute
value of the difference of
their coordinates.
THE SEGMENT
ADDITION
POSTULATE
If point B is between
points A and C, then
AB +BC = AC
Given the figure below:
• • •
A B C
AC = 47, AB = n – 5, and
BC = n + 8, Find AB
AC = AB + BC
47 = (n – 5) + (n + 8)
47 = 2n + 3
44 = 2n
22 = n, therefore
AB = 22-5 or 17
Congruent segments
segments that are equal
in length

MIDPOINT– the point that
divides a segment into two
segments of equal length.
BISECTOR of a
SEGMENT– is any line,
segment, ray, or plane that
intersects the segment at its
midpoint.

The rays are called sides

Let O be a point on AB
such that O is between A
and B. Then ray OA can
be paired with O° and ray

If OP is paired with x
and OQ is paired with
y, then the number
paired with measure
of angle POQ is | x – y

measure of angle
POQ.
