Geometry in The Real World

The document presents images and explanations that represent various geometric shapes and concepts in the real world. It includes examples of points as locations on a map, lines as straight roads, planes as flat surfaces, segments as parts of a ruler, rays as signs with one endpoint, collinear points as highway exits, and examples of acute, obtuse, complementary, supplementary, vertical and various types of angles and triangles. Each concept is represented by a real world image and brief explanation of how it demonstrates the concept.

Point
I chose a
map for the
point
because it
shows a
location.

Line

chose a road because a line


keeps going straight and a
road doesnt stop, it also
goes straight.

Plane

I chose this image


because it represents
a plane because a
flat surface on the

ground.

Segment

I chose a ruler
because it has
two endpoints.

Ray

I chose this sign for a


ray because it shows
that its infinitely long
and it only has one
endpoint.

Collinear Points

I chose this image because it


shows that there's two exits on a
highway. Collinear points go on
two different opposite ways.

Acute angle

I chose this image


because it shows
how an acute angle
looks. It is pointy on
the top and it
angles all around
the pyramid.

Obtuse Angle

I chose this image because


when you open a fan it spreads
out so it looks like an obtuse
angle to me.
ed101.bu.edu

Complementary Angle

I chose this image


because a clock shows
that the angle is 90
degree. So its a
complementary angle.

Supplementary Angles

I chose this image because it


shows that the scissors cross
through each other. Supplementary
angles cross so I thought this would
be a good example for it.

Vertical Angles

A pair of non-adjacent angles


formed by the intersection of
two straight lines.
This image shows pieces of the
pizza which makes vertical
angles that look like triangles.

Acute Triangle

All angles are less than right


angles. An acute angle may
be equilateral, isosceles or
scalene.
This image shows an acute
angle because each side is
less than 90 degrees.

Obtuse Angle

An angle that measures more


than 90 degrees but less than
180 degrees.
This image shows that the roof
of the house is an obtuse angle
that is 90 degrees.

Right Triangle

Is a triangle in which one angle is a right angle that is 90


degrees angle. The relation between the sides and angles of a
right triangle is the basis for trigonometry.

This image shows a bridge which shows right triangles on it.

The angles on the right triangle is 90 degrees.

Equilateral Triangles

Is a triangle in which all three sides are


equal. In traditional or Euclidean
geometry, equilateral triangles are
equiangular
I chose this image because all sides of
this equilateral triangle are equal an
they are equal to 60 degrees.

Isosceles Triangles

Is a triangle that has two sides of


equal length Sometimes it is
specified as only two sides that
are equal.
This image shows a boat that
makes an isosceles triangle. Only
two sides are equal.

Scalene Triangle

Is a triangle that has


three unequal sides.
This image shows that
the compass has three
unequal sides. All sides
are not equal.
