Which of the following is not an undefined term of geometry? Plane Line Segment Point
Look at you list of definitions and see which answer choice is there.
the answer choices are plane, line,segment or point
i dont know which one it is though
hint: one of these is defined by the other terms
i honestly dont know im really bad with geometry
please help me
this page explains what undefined terms are (and lists them). There are only 3 of them http://www.regentsprep.org/Regents/math/geometry/GG1/undefinedterms.htm
thank you so much!
from that page, we see a: point, line, and plane the explanations and descriptions are given for each
so the line segment is the only thing not undefined basically it's defined with the help of the undefined terms: point, line
a line segment is formed by 2 distinct points that are not the same and these two points are connected with a straight line a line segment is finitely long (ie ends at some point)
intersecting lines are parallel
is it always, sometimes, never or not enough info
what is the definition of parallel?
what does it mean when you have parallel lines?
when theyre the same length and size
that's congruent
so it cant be parallel
think train tracks
the metal rails of train tracks
yeah thats parallel
but can intersecting lines be parallel?
parallel means that two lines don't intersect http://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/parallel-lines.html
