Did You Know?
GEOMETRY
Geometry was originated in
Babylonia and Egypt. It came from
the Greek word “geo” means “Earth”
and “metria” means
“measurements.” Therefore,
Geometry is the study of Earth
measurement.

MATHEMATICAL SYSTEM:
UNDEFINED TERMS
OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the period, 90% of the
student should be able to:
a.Determine each part of the
undefined terms; and
b.Apply the concept of undefined
terms in real life.
Pictures
Out!
Instruction: In this activity the teacher will
randomly give cut-out pictures to students and
the student will determine whether the picture
represent a POINT, LINE, or a PLANE.
QUESTIONS:
1. How can you tell whether the picture
represent a point, line, or a plane?
Points, lines, and planes are the basic concepts of geometry and can be
found in many real-life examples.
MATHEMATICAL SYSTEM
MATHEMATICAL SYSTEM - is structure formed from
one or more sets of undefined objects, various concepts
which may or may not be defined, and a set of axioms
relating these objects and concepts.
