no part i.e, a point is an exact location.


2.   A line is a Breadth less length.
Lines can be extended on both directions.


3. A plane surface is a surface
which lies evenly with the straight lines on itself.


4. A part of a LINE which has only
one endpoint is called a ray.


5. An angle is the figure formed
by two rays with common initial point.


6. A circle is the set of all
those points In a plane whose distance from a fixed point remains constant. The
fixed point is called the centre of the circle.


7. A simple closed figure made of
4 line segment is called a quadrilateral.


 =========================================================


 


Parallel lines:


Two lines in a plane are said to be
parallel if they have no common. Parallel Lines do not intersect each other.
The distance between two Parallel Lines always remains the same.


 


Perpendicular lines:


Two lines in a plane are said to be perpendicular
if they intersect each other at 1 right angle.


 


Line segment:


 The Definite length between two points is
called the line segment. A line segment has two endpoints.


 


Radius of a circle:


The distance from the centre to a point on
the circle is called the radius of a circle.

are right angles and four sides are equal is called a square.
