| Basic Geometrical Concepts |
 |
| |
| Point |
| |
| It is an exact location. It is a fine dot which has neither length nor breadth nor thickness but has position i.e., it has no magnitude. It is denoted by capital letters A, B, C, O etc. |

| |
| |
| Line segment |
| |
The straight path joining two points A and B is called a line segment  |
| |
 |
| |
| Ray |
| |
A line segment which can be extended in only one direction is called a  |
| |
| Line |
| |
When a line segment is extended indefinitely in both directions it forms  |
| |
| Collinear points |
| |
| If two or more points lie on the same line, then they are called collinear points. |
| |
 |
| |
| |
| |
| Non-collinear points |
| |
| Points which do not lie on the same line are called as non-collinear points. |
| |
| Example: |
| |
| E, F, G, H, I |
| |
 |
| |
| Intersecting lines |
| |
| Two lines having a common point are called intersecting lines. The common point is known as the point of intersection. |
| |
 |
| |
| Concurrent lines |
| |
| If two or more lines intersect at the same point, then they are known as concurrent lines. |
| |
 |
| |
| Plane |
| |
| A plane is a surface such that every point of the line joining any two points on it, lies on it. |
| |
| Example: |
| |
| Surface of a smooth wall, surface of a paper. |
