Lines and Angles

Lines

• A line is a collection of points going endlessly or at a fixed point in both

directions along a curved , straight or irregular path.
• Lines are divided into three
1. Lines ( itself )
2. Segment
3. Ray
 Lines , Segments , Rays

Lines
• A geometrical line extends endlessly in both directions
• Example = AB
• Example : Parallel lines , Time , Universe????

A B
 Segments

• A geometric segment starts on one point and ends on the other

• Example = AB
• Example : Chalk , Pen , Spacebar in a keyboard

A B
 Rays

• A geometric Ray starts on one point and extends endlessly on the

other
• Example = AB
• Example : Sun rays , Torch , Arrow

A B
 Angles
• An angle is the figure formed by two rays or line segments, called the sides of
the angle, sharing a common endpoint, called the vertex of the angle

• Angles are divided into six

1. Acute angle ( More than 0º less then 90º)

2. Right angle ( Exact 90º)
3. Obtuse angle ( More than 90º less than 180º)
4. Straight angle ( Exact 180º)
5. Reflex angle ( More than 180º less than 360º)
6. Complete angle ( Exact 360º)
