Geometry Test October 25th

For the test next Tuesday, make sure you reviewed all the main points in the math book and use them when you are asked to justify. I am mainly talking about the properties for parallel and perpendicular lines. Don't forget to redo the exercises and the worksheets stuck on the math copybook. Practice constructing both parallel and perpendicular lines. Come to class with any questions you might have!

Parallel, intersecting, and perpendicular

Power point presentation

Relative Positions of Two Lines in the Plane

Lines, rays, and segments are the basis of all geometry. The notations for each are very important for you to learn at all times.
Use ( ) to show that the series of points is a line that is never-ending from either side.
Use [ ] to show that the series of points is a line segment/ segment that has two end points and can be measured.
Use [ ) or ( ] to show the series of points is a ray that has one end point only.
IMPORTANT:
Through two specific points only one line can pass.
