Geometry
Is a branch of Mathematics which studies the properties of figures and spaces. In this chapter, we will
learn some basic knowledge in geometry.
Points
In our daily life, many things appear as points, such as, the tip of a pencil or the pin of compasses.
A point is the simplest figure in Geometry. It represents a position in space and has no size. We
usually represent a point by a small cross “x” or a small dot “.” And label it by a capital letter such as A,B,
C.

Classifying Different Kinds of Angles
2
In geometry, there are three classifications of the kinds of angles according to their
measures. These three classifications are:
Classification Definition Example
1. Acute angle An acute angle is an angle
whose measure is greater
than 0o 30o 65o
but less than 90o.
2. Right angle A right angle is an angle
whose measure is 90o.
Supplementary Angles
Based on the sum of angle measures, some angle pairs can be classified as supplementary angles.
Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures have a sum of 180°. The steps are presented using
the examples below.
Complementary Angles
Based on the sum of angle measures, some angle pairs can also be classified as complementary angles.
Complementary angles are two angles whose measures have a sum of 900.
Figure 1:
Consider ∠MAN and ∠TAN
Page 4
Questions Answers
In figure 1, what is the measure of angle MAN? m∠MAN = 300
How about the measure of angle TAN? m∠TAN = 600
What is the sum of the measures of the two angles? m∠MAN + m∠TAN
= 300 + 600
= 900
Therefore, m∠MAN + m∠TAN = 900
What do you call angle MAN and angle TAN? ∠MAN and ∠TAN are
complementary angles.
Congruent Angles
Based on the angle measures, some angle pairs can also be classified as congruent angles. Congruent angles
are two angles whose measures are equal.
Figure 1:
Consider ∠SEM and ∠MET
Questions Answers
In figure 1, what is the measure of angle SEM? m∠SEM = 45 0
Vertical Angles
Based on the position of the angles, some angle pairs can be classified as vertical angles. Vertical
angles are two opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines. Vertical angles are congruent.
Figure 1: Line BS intersects line CD at point A.

D S
Questions Answers
What are the angles formed in the figure? ∠BAD, ∠BAC, ∠CAS, and ∠DAS
What are the pairs of angles with a common Pairs of Angles Common Side
side? ∠BAD and ∠BAC ⃗

∠BAC and ∠CAS ⃗
AC

AS
∠DAS and ∠BAD ⃗
AD
Questions Answers
What are the pairs of angles with no common ∠BAD and ∠CAS
side? ∠BAC and ∠DAS
Two angles with no common side are nonadjacent ∠BAD and ∠CAS
∠BAC and ∠DAS
Based on this definition, what are the
nonadjacent angles in the figure?
How do you call the pair of angles BAD and CAS? ∠BAD and ∠CAS are vertical angles
How about ∠BAC and ∠DAS? ∠BAC and ∠DAS are vertical angles

Perpendicular Lines and Parallel Lines
Two lines (rays or segments) are perpendicular to each other if and only if they intersect and form four right
angles. Parallel lines are lines on the same plane that do not intersect.
Illustration on Relationships Discussion
Between Lines
From the corresponding figure, AC ´ intersects BD´ at point E
forming four right angles, namely ∠1 ,∠2 , ∠3 ,∧∠ 4 .
When intersecting lines form four right angles, then the
lines are perpendicular to each other.
Thus, AC´ is perpendicular to BD
´ . In symbol, this is written
´ ⊥ BD
as AC ´ .

The figures drawn in the first column of the table in Activity 2 are called polygons.
The word polygon comes from the Greek word “poly”, which means “many” and “gon” which means “sides”.
Examples Characteristics
A. Polygons M They are closed plane figures bounded by
C O segments.
D
E They have three or more non – collinear
S
T segments joined at their endpoints called sides.
T A
R They have 3 or more endpoints on their sides
called vertices.
E A
They have 3 or more angles.
T
S M
Examples Characteristics
B. Not Polygons They are figures not bounded by segments.
They don’t have at least 3 sides, 3 vertices, and
3 angles.
A polygon also has its names according to the number of its sides.
Some common names for polygons are as follows:
Illustrations Number of Sides Name of Polygon
3 Triangle
4 Quadrilateral
5 Pentagon
6 Hexagon
7 Heptagon
8 Octagon
9 Nonagon
10 Decagon
11 Undecagon
12 Dodecagon
All polygons whose diagonals lie inside the figure are called convex while polygons whose diagonals do not lie
entirely inside the figure are called non-convex.
Figures Characteristic Illustration
A. Convex Polygons These are polygons whose segments
connecting any two non-consecutive
vertices of the polygon (also known as
diagonals), all lie inside the polygon.
B. Non – Convex Polygons These polygons are also known as
concave polygons.
Not all diagonals lie inside the polygon.

An exterior angle is an angle formed outside the polygon when one side of the polygon is extended.
The figure on the right is the pentagon POINT.
extended side
Point S is outside pentagon POINT and is
collinear with the point I.
By connecting points, I and S, we formed
IS which is the extension of OI .
Now, OI is extended which forms
∠SIN or ∠NIS outside the polygon, and
is adjacent to the interior ∠OIN.
∠SIN or ∠NIS is said to be the exterior angle
of pentagon POINT.

Sum of the Interior Angles
The phrase sum of the interior angles refers to the sum of all the measures of the interior angles in a
polygon.
In the previous activity, you are asked to draw diagonals on a polygon and identify how many triangles are
formed.

times 180º.

3(180º) = 540º
triangle is equal to 180º,
then for three triangles
formed the sum is 3
times 180º.
Going back to the illustrations in the previous table:
• the number of triangles formed in a polygon depends on the number of sides of a polygon
• the sum of the interior angle of a polygon depends on the number of triangles formed
• the sum of the interior angle of a polygon depends on the number of sides of a polygon
Therefore:
a. if you have a polygon with n-sides the number of triangles formed is equal to n
– 2.
b. the sum S of the measures of the interior angles of an n-gon is
S = (n - 2)180º, where n is the number of sides and n ≥ 3.
Page 9
n-gon n S = (n - 2)180º
The figure above is ∆ABC. Notice that ∠ACB and ∠ACD form a linear pair. Consecutively, we can say that the
measures of ∠ACB and ∠ACD are equal to 180º. In symbol, we write: m∠ACB + m∠ACD = 180º
To find m∠ACD given m∠ACB = 60o, we will follow these steps:
Illustration Explanation
m∠ACB + m∠ACD = 180º Linear Pair Postulate
m∠ACD = 180º - m∠ACB Apply the subtraction property of equality.

A triangle is a polygon with exactly three sides and three angles. The basic parts of the triangle are the
sides, vertices, and angles

Other terms are related to triangles such as the altitude, angle bisector, and median. These are
considered the secondary parts of a triangle.
AT is an altitude of ∆ CAR .
The angle bisector of a triangle is a segment that divides
an angle of a triangle into two congruent angles.
UP is median of ∆ FUN .
