Geometry - Lines

Geometry is basically the study of different properties of point, line and plane.

Angle
Right angle: An angle of 90° is called a right angle.
Acute angle: An angle of less than 90° is called an acute angle.
Obtuse angle: An angle of greater than 90° is called an obtuse angle.
Reflex angle: An angle of greater than 180° is called reflex angle.
Complementary angles: If the sum of the two angles is 90°, then they are called complementary angles.
Supplementary angles:  If the sum of the two angles is 180°, then they are called supplementary angles.

Angle Relations: 

Vertically opposite angles: If two lines intersect each other, then the vertically opposite angles are equal.
∠a = ∠c and ∠b = ∠d
a, c and b, d are vertically opposite angles.


Angles in parallel lines: If a transversal intersects two parallel lines:


a. each pair of consecutive interior angles are supplementary.
∠4 + ∠5 = 180°
∠3 + ∠6 = 180°

b. each pair of alternate interior angles are equal.
∠5 =∠3, ∠6 = ∠4
∠5 = ∠3 =∠1 =∠7
∠6 = ∠4 = ∠2 = ∠8

Collinear: Three or more than three points are said to be collinear, if there is a line which contains them
all.
Concurrent: Three or more than three lines are said to be concurrent, if there is a point which lies on them
all.

Proportionality Theorem:

In the above diagram, ABBC=DEEF or ACBC=DFEF
