3.Plane
Objectives
At the end of the lesson Students should be
able to:
1. define the undefined and defined terms in
Geometry;
2.illustrate postulates and theorems involving
points, lines, and planes; and,
3.draw real-life instances of the postulates
and theorems involving points, lines, and
planes.
Undefined and
Defined
in Geometry
Point
A described as a dimensionless
location in space. It has no
length, width, or height and no
direction. Just a dot existing in
space. Points can be named in
capital letters.
Line
Described as the set of collinear
points between and extended
beyond two points. It goes out
infinitely from two points that we
named; we put arrowheads to
illustrate its infiniteness. We name
lines by the points they consist of.

Activity:
1. Every line contains at least two distinct points.
2. If two points lie in a plane, then the line containing these points lies in
the same plane.
3. Every plane contains at least three non-collinear points.
4. To every real number there corresponds exactly one point of the line.
5. Any three points lie in at least one plane, and any three noncollinear
points lie in exactly one plane.
6. Space contains at least four non-coplanar points.
7. If two planes intersect, then their intersection is a line.
8. Any three points lie in at least one plane, and any three noncollinear
points lie in exactly one plane.
9. If two different lines intersect, then they intersect at exactly one
point.
10. If a point lies outside a line, then exactly one plane contains both the
line and the point.
These postulates and theorems can be
proven through diagrams that directly
represent them. However, these postulates
and theorems are used to prove the other
geometry concepts. These postulates and
theorems are used to discuss other
theorems that are more abstract and more
complicated than points, lines, and planes.
Now, look around you, there are examples
of these postulates and theorems all
around us. Now give me some examples
that you can see inside the classroom.
