Introduction to Basic Concepts in Geometry
Geometry is the branch of mathematics that deals with the study of position, shape, size, and other properties of various figures. Geometrical terms such as point, line, plane, etc., carry the basic ideas for the development of geometry.
Fundamental Geometrical Concepts:
Concept | Definition | Diagram |
Point | A point is a mark of position. It has neither length nor width nor thickness; | ![]() |
Line | A line has only length. It has neither width nor thickness. | ![]() |
Line Segment | A line segment is a part of a straight line. | ![]() |
Ray | A ray is a straight line that starts from a given fixed point and moves in the same direction |
![]() |
Plane | It is a flat surface. A plane has length and width but no thickness. | ![]() |
Angle | Formed when two rays meet at a common point (vertex). | ![]() |
