This geometry textbook section defines and compares lines, line segments, and rays. It instructs students to work with a partner to draw points, lines, segments, and rays using geometry software. A line extends infinitely in both directions, a line segment has two endpoints, and a ray has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction. Students are asked to describe and sketch how two lines, a line and plane, or two planes can intersect or not intersect using examples from their classroom. The section also defines terms like endpoints, segments, collinear points, coplanar points, intersections, and opposite rays. It includes practice problems asking students to name and identify examples of these concepts.

Work with a partner. Use dynamic geometry software to draw several
points. Also, draw some lines, line segments, and rays. What is the difference between a line, a line segment, and a ray?
A line extends infinitely in both directions,
a line segment has two endpoints, a ray has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction.
Work with a partner.
a. Describe and sketch the ways in which two lines can intersect or not intersect. Give examples of each using the lines formed by the walls, floor, and ceiling in your classroom. b. Describe and sketch the ways in which a line and a plane can intersect or not intersect. Give examples of each using the walls, floor, and ceiling in your classroom. c. Describe and sketch the ways in which two planes can intersect or not intersect. Give examples of each using the walls, floor, and ceiling in your classroom.
Geometry Chapter 1 Section 1 (1.1)
undefined terms: terms that don't have formal definitions
point: represented by a dot line: represented by a line with two arrows, extends without end. plane: repesented by a shape that looks like a floor or wall, but extends without end collinear points: points that are on the same line coplanar points: points that are on the same plane
defined terms: terms that have a formal definition
endpoints: points at each end of a line segment line segment or segment: consists of two endpoints connected by a straight line ray: begins at an endpoint, and extends infinitely in the other direction opposite rays: rays that have the same endpoint, but go in opposite directions forming a straight line. intersection: the point where two lines cross
