A point is an exact location in space.
You are here.

A true point has no length, no width, and no height.
In fact, you cannot see a true point.

A point is named by a letter.

Lines are 1-dimensional objects that have only length. Lines
continue forever in both directions.

Because a line has no width or height, you cannot see a true line.

A line is defined by 2 points.

A ray has a starting point but no ending point.

A ray of light has a starting point (like the sun) and continues
forever in the same direction.
![Page 10: Points, Lines, and Planes. A point is an exact location in space. You are here](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649f3c5503460f94c5bd82/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Of course, if the ray hits an object, the light could be
absorbed or reflected.

A line segment has a starting point and an ending point. Line
segments can be measured.

Lines can do various things.
![Page 15: Points, Lines, and Planes. A point is an exact location in space. You are here](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649f3c5503460f94c5bd82/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Lines can intersect at a point to form angles.

When lines intersect to form right angles, they are said to be perpendicular.

Lines do not always intersect.
![Page 18: Points, Lines, and Planes. A point is an exact location in space. You are here](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649f3c5503460f94c5bd82/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Lines can be parallel.
![Page 19: Points, Lines, and Planes. A point is an exact location in space. You are here](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649f3c5503460f94c5bd82/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Parallel lines have the same slope or steepness.
![Page 20: Points, Lines, and Planes. A point is an exact location in space. You are here](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649f3c5503460f94c5bd82/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Is it possible for lines not to intersect and not be parallel
either?
![Page 21: Points, Lines, and Planes. A point is an exact location in space. You are here](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649f3c5503460f94c5bd82/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Believe it or not, this is possible.Let’s consider a 3-dimensional
rectangular prism.
![Page 22: Points, Lines, and Planes. A point is an exact location in space. You are here](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649f3c5503460f94c5bd82/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
These 2 lines are not parallel, but they are not intersecting either.
![Page 23: Points, Lines, and Planes. A point is an exact location in space. You are here](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649f3c5503460f94c5bd82/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
These lines are called skew lines.
![Page 24: Points, Lines, and Planes. A point is an exact location in space. You are here](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649f3c5503460f94c5bd82/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
You might have heard the word “skewer” the last time you had a
barbecue.

A skewer raises your “dinner” off the surface of the grill. The skewer does not intersect the grill, and the skewer is not
parallel to the grill.

A plane
is a flat
surface that has
length & width
but no height.

You can see a plane only if you view it at a certain angle.
