Lesson
Points, Lines, Planes, and
1 Types of Angles

All the beautiful shapes found on buildings, in museums, and on your desktop
or smartphone’s wallpaper come from the three geometrical figures: points, lines, and
planes. When you wake-up, the first things you see are outlines of points and lines of
different objects or persons. As you move forward, you will see beautiful two-
dimensional planes, segments, and rays all around you. As you move your arm at a

certain angle to exercise, you are already unconsciously applying the rules of
Mathematics and Geometry in everyday life. For this module, we will explore the
concepts of points, lines, planes, subsets of lines, and types of angles. Let’s learn!

overpasses, and he named four planes: Planes C, D, S, and M. Planes C, D, and S can
be found on the overpass, and plane M represents the road. Answer the questions below:
1. How many points can be drawn on plane S? Why? State your reason.
2. How many lines can be drawn on plane D? Why? State your reason.
3. How many planes can be drawn on plane M? Why? State your reason.

What is It

Hi, there! As you can see from our previous activities, points, lines, and planes
can be found everywhere! Let’s study them in a more detailed manner!

What are Points, Lines, and Planes?

Geometry is a branch of Mathematics that involves the
study of the relationships of points, lines, planes, surfaces (2D
or 3D) and higher dimensional spaces. It comes from two Greek
words, geo meaning earth, and metron meaning measurement.
Euclid of Alexandria, shown on the left image, is the Father of
 Module 1, Quarter 3, Grade 7: Mathematics |5

Geometry. In his book, The Elements, he wrote the definitions of three most
basic terms in Geometry—which he called the undefined terms. The three
undefined terms are point, line, and plane.
Undefined Term Description and Examples
1. Point A point is one of the three undefined terms in
Geometry. It is a geometrical figure that has no
size, no dimension, merely position.

On the image shown on the left, the tip of a needle

can be labeled as point A. Point A lies at the
center of a circle.
2, Line A line is the second undefined term in Geometry.
It is usually named using a lowercase letter. A
line consists of infinitely many points that
extend without end in both directions.

On the image shown on the left, we have line m,

with points C and D. Points C and D are called
collinear points, since they lie on the same line.
Line m can be also named as ⃡𝑪𝑫.
3. Plane A plane is the third undefined term in Geometry.
It can be illustrated using a flat surface with no
thickness, and extend without end in all
directions. Planes are named using a capital
letter, or the three non-collinear points on it.

On the image on the left, we have plane Q or

plane EFG. Points E, F, & G are coplanar points
since they all lie in one plane—which is plane Q.

If you noticed, there are only three undefined terms in Geometry—point,

line, and plane. Next, we will learn more about the defined terms!

Subsets of a Line: What are Segments and Rays?

Shown below are the subsets of a line: they are the ray and segment.
Defined Term Description and Examples
1. Ray The first defined term and subset of a line is ray. A
ray shares the property of a line, but it has a one
fixed point that stretches infinitely in one
direction only.

On the image shown on the left, the rays of the

sun are literal rays in Geometry, since they extend
without end in one direction. Given line w, we can
find a ray inside the line and name it 𝑺𝑨.

2. Segment The second defined term and subset of a line is a

segment. It is a set of points on a line if and only
if it contains two points, called endpoints, and all
the points between them.

On the image shown on the left, a chocolate bar’s

side can represent a segment. Given line q, the
segment can be named as ̅𝑹𝑺
̅̅̅̅ with endpoints R and
S.
 Module 1, Quarter 3, Grade 7: Mathematics |6

Relationships Among Points, Lines, and Planes

Key terminologies used in basic Geometry are as follows:

•a statement that is accepted as true without

Postulate having to formally prove it.
•a statement that can be demonstrated to be
Theorem true through mathematical operations,
definitions, postulates
•is a theorem whose justification follows from
Corollary another theorem.

Basic Postulates and Theorems in Geometry

Points, lines, and planes can be related to each other in Geometry
using the following postulates and theorems:

•A line contains at least two distinct

points. A plane contains at least
Postulate
three noncollinear points. Space
1 contains at least four noncoplanar
points.

On the figure on the right, using postulate 1, we have

line ⃡𝑬𝑭, with two collinear points, and plane Q or plane
WPG, with three noncollinear and coplanar points.

•If two distinct points are

Postulate 2 (Line
given, then a unique line
Postulate) contains them.

On the figure on the right, using the line postulate, we have

line ⃡𝑷𝑾, with two distinct points connecting the line.

•If two distinct lines intersect,

Theorem 1 then they intersect at exactly
one point.

On the figure on the right, based on theorem 1, we have lines

n and k, with only one point of intersection, point D.

•Three collinear points are contained

in at least one plane and three
Postulate 3 noncollinear points are contained in
exactly one plane.

On the figure on the right, using postulate 3, planes W and H

share three collinear points: Points J, C, & V. There also exists
three noncollinear points that are found in one plane, points
L, N, & R, lying on plane H.

•If two distinct planes intersect,

Postulate 4 then their intersection is a line.

On the figure on the right, using postulate 4, planes R and E

intersect each other at ⃡𝑫𝑨, which is a line.

•If two points are in a plane, then the

Postulate 5 line that contains those points lies
entirely in the plane.

On the figure on the right, using postulate 5, it can be said

that all of the points on ⃡𝑷𝑾 are found on plane R.
•If a line not contained in a plane
intersects the plane, then the
Theorem 2 intersection contains only one
point.

On the figure on the right, based on theorem 2, plane P and

line b intersect only at one point, which is point C.

Parts of an Angle and the Protractor

A protractor, a tool used to measure the degree of an angle, and its
parts are shown on the right side (place the vertex of the angle on the center
point), while an angle, a union of two non-collinear rays, and its parts are
shown on the left side. When measuring an angle, the vertex must be placed
on the center point.

Parts of an angle:
Sides: 𝐸𝐺 and 𝐸𝑂
Vertex (common endpoint): Point E
Angle name: ∠𝐺𝐸𝑂 , ∠𝑂𝐸𝐺, or ∠𝐸

Types of Angles and Their

Properties
Listed below are the different
types of angles and their properties:

Type of Angle Properties and Examples with Solutions

1. Acute Angle With its angle measuring more than 𝟎° but
Range of angle measurement: less than 𝟗𝟎°, on the protractor shown
𝑴𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒏 𝟎° 𝒃𝒖𝒕 above, ∠𝐶𝐴𝐵 and ∠𝐷𝐴𝐵 are acute angles.
𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒏 𝟗𝟎°
For example, given that
𝑚∠𝐷𝐴𝐶 = (𝒙 + 𝟒)°,
𝑚∠𝐶𝐴𝐵 = 𝟑𝟐°
𝑚∠𝐷𝐴𝐵 = 5𝟑°

To solve for 𝑥, we can use the formula:

𝑚∠𝐷𝐴𝐵 = 𝑚∠𝐷𝐴𝐶 + 𝑚∠𝐶𝐴𝐵.

Hence, we have:
53 = (𝑥 + 4) + 32
53 = 𝑥 + 36
53 − 36 = 𝑥
𝒙 = 𝟏𝟕°
Therefore, we have:
𝑚∠𝐷𝐴𝐶 = (𝒙 + 𝟒)°
𝑚∠𝐷𝐴𝐶 = (𝟏𝟕 + 𝟒)°
𝑚∠𝐷𝐴𝐶 = 𝟐𝟏°, an acute angle
2. Right Angle On the same figure given above, there are 2
Range of angle measurement: right angles: ∠𝐻𝐴𝐸 &∠𝐸𝐴𝐵, and both are
𝑬𝒙𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒍𝒚 𝟗𝟎° equal to 𝟗𝟎°.

3. Obtuse Angle An obtuse angle has an angle range of more

Range of angle measurement: than 90° but less than 𝟏𝟖𝟎°. On the figure
𝑴𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒏 𝟗𝟎° 𝒃𝒖𝒕 𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒏 above, ∠𝐹𝐴𝐵 & ∠𝐺𝐴𝐵 are obtuse angles, based
𝟏𝟖𝟎° from their position on the protractor.

4. Straight Angle A straight angle is any angle that measures

Range of angle measurement exactly 𝟏𝟖𝟎°, and looks exactly like a line. On
𝑬𝒙𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒍𝒚 𝟏𝟖𝟎° the figure above, the straight angle is
∠𝐻𝐴𝐵 𝑜𝑟 ∠𝐵𝐴𝐻.

5. Reflex Angle In your advanced topics in Geometry, you

will encounter reflex angles. It is an angle
that is more than 𝟏𝟖𝟎° but less than 𝟑𝟔𝟎°.
You can normally find them objects with
large angles, such as a big slice of pizza. On
 Module 1, Quarter 3, Grade 7: Mathematics |8

the image on the left, ∠𝐺𝐴𝐿 = 240°, hence, it is

considered as a reflex angle.

6. Complete Angle
A complete angle is twice the measurement
of a straight angle. It measures exactly 𝟑𝟔𝟎°,
or makes a full rotation. On the image on the
left, ∠𝐿𝐴𝐷 = 360°, therefore, it must be a
complete angle. One of the examples of a
complete angle is a clock’s minute and hour
hand completing a full clockwise rotation.

ball that he used for exercise. You noted on your notebook at one instant the ball made
an angle to the pole at 𝑚∠𝐴 = 34°. The next instant, it measured 𝑚∠𝐵 = 112°. Lastly, it
measured 𝑚∠𝐶 = (𝑥 + 2)°. The sum of the three angle measures is 175°. Find 𝒙.

2. Your friend requested if you could cut your best friend’s birthday cake. There were
64 guests in the party, and each guest must receive a slice. Given that it is a square-
shaped cake, what is the minimum number of line segments that you must create on
the cake to have exactly 64 slices of cake?

3. While gazing at the stars at Makati Park, Benita held two of her fingers near eye and
estimated that the ground and location of a blue star was at an angle of 53°. To connect
it to a yellow star, she lifted her finger more and added 37° to her estimate to connect
the two stars. What type of angle did she create at the end with her two fingers?

4. Whenever JJ runs, his left and right legs create an angle of 125° with respect to the
ground, plus another 105° when his right leg is in front. Adding the sum of the two
angles when JJ moves per pace, what type of angle is created?

5. Rhian wants to find the perfect angle for taking

a photo of the rare Philippine eagle. On her first
shot, she used an angle of ∠𝐴 = (2𝑦 + 12)° and for
her second shot, she used an angle of ∠𝐵 =
(4𝑦 + 8)°. The sum of her shots in degrees is a
straight angle. Find y and the measure of
∠𝑨 & ∠𝑩.
