    The document defines three basic undefined terms in geometry: point, line, and plane. It provides representations and naming conventions for each. Points are represented by dots, lines by straight marks with arrow heads, and planes by slanted four-sided figures. Angles are then defined as the figure formed by two rays with the same endpoint not on the same line, and are classified by their measurement in degrees as acute, right, obtuse, or straight angles. The document concludes with instructions on using a protractor to measure angles.

    BASIC CONCEPTS IN GEOMETRY

    AND KINDS OF ANGLES


    UNDEFINED TERMS IN GEOMETRY

    There are three basic terms in geometry which we refer to as undefined terms. These are point, line, and plane. We
    classify these as undefined terms because the definitions of these terms are not precise. Instead, we use
    representations to describe them.

    Were you able to answer the third question? Well, the answer is our lesson for this section – Angle! An angle is
    defined as a figure formed by two rays having the same endpoint not lying on the same line. It is denoted by the
    symbol ∠. In the figure below, the two rays EB and ET are called the sides of the angle and their common endpoint
    (point E) is called the vertex of the angle. The angles can be called ∠E, ∠ BET or ∠TEB. If three letters are used to
    name an angle, the middle letter denotes the vertex.

    Angles are classified according to their measurement. A protractor is used to measure angles. An angle’s unit of
    measurement is in degrees (0). We can classify angles into four, namely: acute angle, right angle, obtuse angle, and
    straight angle. Consider the following illustrative examples of each.
    Familiarizing yourself on using the protractor will be helpful in
    classifying angles. So, this is an additional helpful Information for you!

    How to use protractor:


    1. Place the center point of the protractor on the vertex of the angle to be
    measured.
    2. Make sure that the mark labeled 0 on either score is placed on one side
    of the angle.
    3. Read the scale where the other side of the angle falls.
