The word Geometry has been derived from the Greek

word Geometron in which geo means the Earth and

metron means to measure.So the meaning of
Geometry is the measurement of the Earth.The
necessity of geometry was felt when people started
constructing buildings, measuring land for buying and
selling, making geometrical figures etc.
Point(.):A point gives an idea of a location by making a dot by a
sharp pencil on a paper.It has no length breadth or Height.It has
just a position and only its location can be determined.
Line(b):A line is a collection of points,which can be extended
endlessely on both the sides.It has only length.It has neither
breadth nor thickness.
Line Segment(-): A line segment is a part of a line that is
bounded by 2 distinct end points.It has a definite length but no
breadth and thickness.It is the shortest distance of any 2 points.
Ray(a):A ray is also a part of the line which has only one end
point and can be extended endlessely in one direction . A ray
has no breadth or thickness


A plane is a flat smooth surface that extends indefinitely in
all directions.It has length and breadth but no
thickness.

Three or more points are said to be collinear if they lie
on the same line.This line is called line of collinearity
If a straight line in a plane contains 2 points but it does
not contains the third point then these are said to be
non-collinear points
Closed Figures:
Figures in which initial and end
points coincide with each other
are called closed figures


Open Figures:
Figures which have different
initial and end points are called
open figures
Points that lie inside the
boundary of the Triangle are
said to be in the interor of the
triangle
Points that lie outside the
boundary of the Triangle are
said to be in the interor of the
triangle

Perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all the sides of a
figure. Thus perimeter is a measure of lengths. In case of
a circle the perimeter means its circumference.
The two dimensional space enclosed by the perimeter
is called area. Since it is a two-dimensional space, area
is measured in square units like cm
2
or square feet.


Arc: any connected part of the circle.
Centre: the point equidistant from the points on the circle.
Chord: a line segment whose endpoints lie on the circle.
Circumference: the length of one circuit along the circle.
Diameter: a line segment whose endpoints lie on the circle and which passes through
the centre; or the length of such a line segment, which is the largest distance between
any two points on the circle. It is a special case of a chord, namely the longest chord,
and it is twice the radius.
Radius: a line segment joining the centre of the circle to any point on the circle itself; or
the length of such a segment, which is half a diameter.
Semicircle: a region bounded by a diameter and an arc lying between the diameter's
endpoints. It is a special case of a circular segment, namely the largest one.


Points that lie inside the
boundary of the Circle are
said to be in the interor of the
circle

Points that lie outside the
boundary of the Circle are
said to be in the interor of the
circle
The circumference of a circle is the actual length around
the circle which is equal to 360. Pi (p) is the number
needed to compute the circumference of the circle.
p is equal to 3.14.
In circles the AREA is equal to 3.14 (p) times the radius (r) to
the power of 2.
Thus the formula looks like:
A= pr
2
.
In circles the circumference is 3.14 (p) times the Diameter.
Thus the formula looks like:
2pr or pd.

According to the angle sum property of
the Quardilateral the sum of all angles
of a quardilateral is 360 degree
