Point - A point has no dimension. It is represented

by a dot. It represents a fixed point in space.

Line - A line has one dimension. It is represented

by a line with two arrowheads, but it extends without

end.

Through any two points,

there is EXACTLY one line.

You can use any two points

on a line to name it.

represented by a shape that looks like a floor or a

wall, but it extends without end.

not on the same line, there

is exactly one plane.

You can use three points

that are not all on the same

line to name a plane.

Endpoint – A point that is the beginning or end of a

segment or ray.

Segment – A piece of a line which consists of two

endpoints.

endpoint and extends indefinitely in the other

direction.

𝐴𝐵⃗⃗⃗⃗ ⃗ starts a point A

and runs through point B

angles are a linear pair if

their noncommon sides are
