1 4 CHAPTER We are Starting from a Point but want to Make it a Circle of Infinite Radius BASIC GEOMETRICAL CONCEPTS (AXIOMS, THEOREMS AND COROLLARIES) Axioms Examples STATEMENTS Examples The basic facts which are taken for granted, without proof, are called axioms (i) Halves of equal are equal (ii) The whole is greater than each of its parts (iii) A line contains infinitely many points A sentence which can be judged to be true or false is called a statement (i) The sum of the angles of a triangle is 18, is a true statement (ii) The sum of the angles of a quadrilateral is 18, is a false statement (iii) x + 1 > 15 is a sentence but not a statement Theorems A statement that requires a proof, is called a theorem Establishing the truth of a theorem is known as proving the theorem Examples (i) The sum of all the angles around a point is 36 (ii) The sum of the angles of a triangle is 18 CAROLLARY : A statement, whose truth can easily be deduced from a theorem, is called its corollary EUCLID S FIVE POSTULATES 1 A straight line may be drawn from any point to any other point 2 A terminated line can be produced indefinitely 3 A circle can be drawn with any center and any radius 4 All right angle are equal to one another 5 If a straight line falling on two straight lines makes the interior angles on the same side of it taken together less than two right angles, then the two straight lines, if produced indefinitely, meet on that side on which the angles taken together are less than two right angles Later on the fifth postulate was modified as under For every line L and for every point P not lying on L, there exists a unique line M, passing through P and parallel to L Clearly, two distinct intersecting lines cannot be parallel to the same line SOME TERMS RELATED TO GEOMETRY POINT A point is an exact location A fine dot represents a point We denote a point by a capital letter A, B, P, Q, etc In the given figure, P is a point Line segment The straight path between two points A and B is called the line segment AB The points A and B are called the end points of the line segment AB A line segment has a definite length /

2 The distance between two points A and B is equal to the length of the line segment AB RAY A line segment AB when extended indefinitely in one direction is the ray AB Ray AB has one end point A A ray has no definite length A ray cannot be drawn, it can simply be represented on the plane of a paper To draw a ray would mean to represent it LINE A line segment AB when extended indefinitely in both the directions is called the line AB A line has no end points A line has no definite length A line cannot be drawn, it can simply be represented on the plane of a paper To draw a line would mean to represent it Sometimes, we lable lines by small letters l, m, n, etc INCIDENCE AXIOMS ON LINES (i) A line contains infinitely many points (ii) Through a given point, infinitely many liens can be drawn (iii) One and only one line can be drawn to pass through two given points A and B COLLINEAR POINTS Three or more than three points are said to be collinear, if there is a line which contains them all In the given figure A,B,C are collinear points, while P,Q,R are non-collinear INTERSECTING LINES Two lines having a common point are called intersecting lines In the given figure, the lines AB and C intersect at a point O CONCURRENT LINES Three or more lines intersecting at the same point are said to be concurrent In the given figure, lines l, m, n pass through the same point P and therefore, they are concurrent PLANE A plane is a surface such that every point of the line joining any two points on it, lies on it Examples The surface of a smooth wall; the surface of the top of the table; the surface of a smooth blackboard; the surface of a sheet of paper etc, are close examples of a plane These surfaces are limited in extent but the geometrical plane extends endlessly in all directions Parallel Lines Two lines l and m in a plane are said to be parallel, if they have no point in common and we write, l m The distance between two parallel lines always remains the same /

3 Questions 1 (i) How many lines can be drawn to pass through a given point? (ii) How many lines can be drawn to pass through two given points? (iii) In how many points can the two lines at the most intersect? (iv) If A, B, C are three collinear points, name all the line segments determined by them 2 Which of the following statements are true? (i) A line segment has no definite length (ii) A ray has no end point (iii) A line has a definite length (iv) A line AB is the same as line BA (v) (vi) A ray AB is the same as ray BA Two distinct points always determine a unique line (vii) Three lines are concurrent if they have a common point (viii) Two distinct lines cannot have more than one point in common (ix) (x) (xi) Two intersecting liens cannot be both parallel to the same line Open half-line OA is the same thing as ray Two lines may intersect in two points OA (xii) Two lines l and m are parallel only when they have no point in common ANGLES AND THEIR PROPERTIES ANGLE Two rays OA and OB having a common end point O form angle AOB, written as AOB OA and OB are called the arms of the angle and O is called its vertex INTERIOR OF AN ANGLE The interior of AOB is the set of all points in its plane, which lie on the same side of OA as B and also on the same side of OB as A, eg, P is a point in the interior of AOB Any point on any arm or vertex is said to lie on the angle, eg, Q is a point on AOB EXTERIOR OF AN ANGLE The exterior of an angle AOB is the set of all those points in its plane, which do not lie on the angle or in its interior In the given figure, R is a point in the exterior of AOB /

4 MEASURE OF AN ANGLE The amount of turning from OA to OB is called the measure of AOB, written as m AOB An angle is measured in degrees denoted by AN ANGLE OF 36 If a ray OA starting from its original OA, rotates about O, in the anticlockwise direction and after making a complete revolution it comes back to its original position, we say that it has rotated through 36 degrees, written as 36 This complete rotation is divided into 36 equal parts Each part measures 1 1 = 6 minutes, written as 6 1 = 6 seconds, written as 6 We use a protractor to measure an angle KINDS OF ANGLE (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (v) (vi) RIGHT ANGLE An angle whose measure is 9 is called a right angle ACUTE ANGLE An angle whose measure is more than but less than 9 is called an acute angle OBTUSE ANGLE An angle whose measure is more than 9 but less than 18 is called an obtuse angle STRAIGHT ANGLE An angle whose measure is 18 is called a straight angle REFLEX ANGLE An angle whose measure is more than 18 but less than 36 is called a reflex angle COMPLETE ANGLE An angle whose measure is 36 is called a complete angle EQUAL ANGLES Two angles are said to be equal, if they have the same measure Bisector of an angle A ray OC is called the bisector of AOB, if m AOC = m BOC 1 In this case, AOC = BOC = AOB 2 COMPLEMENTARY ANGLES Two angles are said to be complementary, if the sum of their measures is 9 Two complementary angles are called the complement of each other Example Angles measuring 55 and 35 are complementary angles /

5 SUPPLEMENTARY ANGLES Two angles are said to be supplementary, if the sum of their measures is 18 Example Angles measuring 62 and 118 are supplementary angles Example 1 Find the measure of an angle which is 24 more than its complement Solution Let the measure of the required angle be x Then measure of its complement = (9 x) x (9 x) = 24 2x = 114 x = 57 Hence, the measure of the required angle is 57 Example 2 Find the measure of an angle which is 32 less than its supplement Solution Let the measure of the required angle be x Then measure of its complement = (18 x) x (18 x) = 32 2x = 148 x = 74 Hence, the measure of the required angle is 74 Example 3 Find the measure of an angle, if six times its complement is 12 supplement Solution Let the measure of the required angle be x Then measure of its complement = (9 x) Measure of its supplement = (18 x) 6 (9 x) = 2 (18 x) x = 36 2x 12 4x = 192 x = 48 less than twice its /

8 In the adjoining figure, AOC and BOC are two adjacent angles whose non-common arms OA and Ob are two opposite rays, ie, BOA is a line AOC and BOC form a linear pair of angles SOME RESULTS ON ANGLES RELATIONS Theorem 1 If a ray stands on a line then the sum of the adjacent angles so formed is 18 Given A ray CD stands on a line AB such that ACD and BCD are formed To prove ACD BCD 18 Construction Draw CE AB Proof ACD ACE ECD (i) and BCD BCE ECD (ii) Adding (i) and (ii), we get : ACD BCD = ( ACE ECD ) ( BCE ECD ) = ACE BCE = (9 + 9 ) = 18 [ ACE BCE 9 ] Hence, ACD BCD 18 REMARK we may state the above theorem as the sum of the angles of a linear pair is 18 COROLLARY 1 Prove that the sum of all the angles formed on the same side of a line at a given point on the line is 18 Given AOB is a straight line and rays OC, OD and OE stand on it, forming AOC, COD, DOE and EOB To prove AOC COD DOE EOB 18 Proof Ray OC stands on line AB AOC COB = 18 ( AOC ( COD DOE EOB) 18 [ COB COD DOE EOB ] AOC COD DOE EOB 18 Hence, the sum of all the angles formed on the same side of line AB at a point O on it is 18 COROLLARY 2 Prove that the sum of all the angles around a point is 36 Given A point O and the rays OA, OB, OC, OD and OE make angles around O To Prove AOB BOC COD DOE EOA 36 Construction Draw a ray OF opposite to ray OA PROOF Since ray OB stands on line FA, we have : AOB BOF = 18 [linear pair] AOB BOC COF = 18 (i) [ BOF BOC COF ] Again, ray OD stands on line FA FOD DOA = 18 [linear pair] or FOD DOE EOA = 18 [ DOA DOE EOA ] Adding (i) and (ii), we get : AOB BOC COF FOD DOE EOA = 36 AOB BOC COD DOE EOA /

9 [ COF FOD COD ] Hence, the sum of all the angles, around a point O is 36 VERTICALLY OPPOSITE ANGLES Two angles are called a pair of vertically opposite angles, if their arms form two pairs of opposite rays Let two lines AB and CD intersect at a point O Then, two pairs of vertically opposite angle are formed : (i) AOC and BOD (ii) AOD and BOC Theorem 2 If two lines intersect then the vertically opposite angle are equal Given Two lines AB and CD intersect at a point O To Prove (i) AOC BOD, (ii) AOD BOC PROOF Since ray OA stands on line CD, we have AOC BOD 18 [linear pair] Again ray OD stands on line AB AOD BOD 18 [linear pair] AOC AOD AOD BOD [each equal to 18 ] AOC BOD Similarly, AOD BOC Example 4 In the adjoining figure, AOB is a straight line Find AOC and BOD Solution Since AOB is a straight line, the sum of all the angles on the same side of AOB at a point O on it, is 18 x (2x 2) = 18 3x = 135 x = 45 AOC 45 and BOD = (2 45 2) = 7 Example 5 In the adjoining figure, what value of x will make AOB a straight line? Solution AOB will be a straight line, if A OC BOC 18 (3x + 5) + (2x 25) = 18 5x = 2 x = 4 Hence, x = 4 will make AOB a straight line THE ANGLES FORMED WHEN A TRANSVERSAL CUTS TWO LINES Let AB and CD be two lines, cut by a transversal t Then, the following angles are formed (i) Pairs of corresponding angles : ( 1, 5 ); ( 4, 8 ); ( 2, 6 ) and ( 3, 7 ) (ii) Pairs of alternate interior angles : ( 3, 5 ) and ( 4, 6 ) (iii) Pairs of consecutive interior angles (allied angles or conjoined angles) : ( 4, 5 ) and ( 3, 6 ) REMARKS We shall abbreviate as follows : (i) Corresponding Angles as corres s (ii) Alternate Interior Angles as Alt Int s /

10 (iii) Consecutive Interior Angles as Co Int s CORRESPONDING ANGLES AXIOM If a transversal cuts two parallel lines then each pair of corresponding angles are equal Conversely, if a transversal cuts two lines, making a pair of corresponding angles equal, then the lines are parallel Thus, whenever AB CD are cut by a transversal t, then 1 5 ; 48 ; 2 6 and 3 7 On the other hand, if a transversal t cuts two lines AB and CD such that ( 15 ) or ( 48 ) or ( 26 ) or ( 37 ) then AB CD Theorem 3 If a transversal intersects two parallel lines then alternate angles of each pair of interior angles are equal Given AB CD and a transversal t cuts AB at E and CD at F, forming two pairs of alternate interior angles, namely ( 3, 5 ) and ( 4, 6 ) To Prove 3 5 and 4 6 PROOF We have 3 1 (vert opp s ) and 1 5 (corres s ) 3 5 Again, 4 2 (vert opp s ) and 2 6 (corres s ) 4 6 Hence, 3 5 and 4 6 Theorem 4 If a transversal intersects two parallel lines then each pair of consecutive interior angles are supplementary Given AB CD and a transversal t cuts AB at E and CD at F, forming two pairs of consecutive interior angles, namely ( 3 6 ) and ( 4 5 ) TO PROVE 3 6 = 18 and PROOF Since ray EF stands on line AB, we have (linear pair) But, 4 6 (Alt Int s ) Again, since ray FE stands on line CD, We have But, 6 4 (Alt Int s ) /

11 Hence, and Theorem 5 (Converse of Theorem 1) if a transversal intersects two lines, making a pair of alternate interior angles equal, then the two lines are parallel Given A transversal t cuts two lines AB and CD at E and F respectively such To Prove AB CD PROOF We have 35 (given) But, 31 (vert opp s ) 1 5 But, these are corresponding angles AB CD (by corres s axiom) Theorem 6 (Converse of Theorem 2) If a transversal intersect two lines in such a way that a pair of consecutive interior angles are supplementary then the two lines are parallel Given A transversal cuts two lines AB and CD at E and F respectively such that To Prove AB CD PROOF Since ray EB stands on line t, we have (linear pair) and (given) This gives, 15 But, these are corresponding angles AB CD (by corres s axiom) /
