1.1. PERPENDICULAR BISECTOR.

In Geometry, Bisection is the division of something into two equal parts, usually
by a Line, which is then called a Perpendicular Bisector or Segment Bisector (a line
that passes through the Midpoint of a given segment).

How to construct a Perpendicular Bisector in a Segment

Step 1: Stretch your compasses until it is more than half the length of

sharp end at and mark an arc above and another arc below line segment

2. ANGLES.
2.1. PARALLEL ANGLES.

Two Parallel Angles are equal or Supplementary Angles.

Two angles are Supplementary when their addition is .

When Parallel Lines get crossed by another line (which is called a Transversal),
you can see that many angles are the same.

Axel Cotn Gutirrez Mathematics 1 ESO 10.5


Unit 10 April

The pairs of angles on opposite sides of the transversal but outside the two
lines are called Alternate Exterior Angles.

The angles in matching corners are called Corresponding Angles.

The pairs of angles on opposite sides of the transversal but inside the two lines
are called Alternate Interior Angles.

Axel Cotn Gutirrez Mathematics 1 ESO 10.6


Unit 10 April

The pairs of angles on one side of the transversal but inside the two lines are
called Consecutive Interior Angles.

Vertically Opposite Angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines
cross.

Alternate Exterior Angles, Corresponding Angles, Alternate Interior Angles and


Vertically Opposite Angles are equal.

2.2.1. SEXAGESIMAL DEGREE.

Remember that a Right Angle is .

A Straight Angle is .

A Full Angle is .

There are in one Full Rotation (one complete circle around). The
most usual unit of measurement for angles is the Sexagesimal Degree, which consists

Axel Cotn Gutirrez Mathematics 1 ESO 10.8


Unit 10 April

in / of a full angle. The measurement of an angle in Sexagesimal Degrees is


denoted by the symbol . To get an idea, one degree corresponds to the following
aperture:

What happens when we have an angle of less than ?

To be able to speak about angles that measure less than , we use


submultiples of a degree, so we avoid working with expressions like the following:

This angle measures half a degree.


This angle measures 0.56 degrees

Thus, the Sexagesimal Degree has submultiples: these are the Minute and the
Second. The Minute is designated as and the second as .

Axel Cotn Gutirrez Mathematics 1 ESO 10.9


Unit 10 April

The measurement of an angle in degrees, minutes and seconds would be, for
example, . It would be read as: an angle of degrees, minutes and
seconds.
Let's see the exact value of minutes and seconds:

One Minute is the result of taking a degree and dividing it into equal parts. This
is, mathematically expressed:

= =

A Second is the result of taking a minute and dividing it in equal parts. This is,
mathematically expressed:

= =

2.2.2. USING A PROTRACTOR.

To find the number of degrees in an angle, we use a Protractor.

A straight angle is divided into equal subdivisions on a Protractor, marked


from to . You find two scales marked to , one in clockwise direction and
the other in anti-clockwise direction. Each subdivision stands for .

Steps to measure:
Place the center of the protractor on the vertex of the angle.
Base line should fall along any of the sides.

Axel Cotn Gutirrez Mathematics 1 ESO 10.10


Unit 10 April

The scale (clock wise or anti-clock wise direction), which begins with zero on the
side, is chosen.
Read the mark on the scale where the other arm crosses it.

2.2.3. COMPLEX AND NON-COMPLEX FORM.

To change degrees into minutes and seconds we will always work by means of
Conversion Factors. To convert from Complex Form to Non-Complex Form:

= ,

Write 73 13 48 in seconds:

73 = 73 3,600 = 262,800

13 = 13 60 = 780

73 13 48 = 262,800 + 780 = 263,628

Axel Cotn Gutirrez Mathematics 1 ESO 10.11


Unit 10 April

To do it backwards:

Write 263,628 in complex form:

263,628 3,600 = 73, = 828

Therefore:

263,628 = 73 13 48

2.3.2. SUBTRACTING ANGLES USING THE SEXAGESIMAL MEASURE.

3. LINES OF SYMMETRY OF PLANE SHAPES.


3.1. LINE OF SYMMETRY.

Another name for Reflection Symmetry. One half is the reflection of the other
half. The "Line of Symmetry" is the imaginary line where you could fold the image and
have both halves match exactly.

You can find if a shape has a Line of Symmetry by folding it. When the folded
part sits perfectly on top (all edges matching), then the fold line is a Line of Symmetry.

Here I have folded a rectangle one way, and it didn't work.

But when I try it this way, it does work (the folded part sits perfectly on top, all
edges matching):

4.1.3. RELATIONSHIP OF SIDES TO INTERIOR ANGLES IN A TRIANGLE.

In a Triangle:

The shortest side is always opposite the smallest interior angle.


The longest side is always opposite the largest interior angle.

Recall that in a Scalene Triangle, all the sides have different lengths and all the
interior angles have different measures. In such a triangle, the shortest side is always
opposite the smallest angle. (These are shown in bold color above)

Axel Cotn Gutirrez Mathematics 1 ESO 10.26


Unit 10 April

Similarly, the longest side is opposite the largest angle. If the smallest side is
opposite the smallest angle, and the longest is opposite the largest angle, then it
follows that since a triangle only has three sides, the midsize side is opposite the
midsize angle.

An Equilateral Triangle has all sides equal in length and all interior angles equal.
Therefore there is no "largest" or "smallest" in this case.

Isosceles Triangles have two sides the same length and two equal interior
angles. Therefore there can be two sides and angles that can be the "largest" or the
"smallest".

4.1.4. CONSTRUCT A TRIANGLE GIVEN THE LENGTH OF ITS THREE SIDES.

midpoint of the opposite side.

A triangle has three medians, and they all cross over at a special point called
the "Centroid".

Altitude is another word for height. In a triangle is the line at right angles to a
side that goes through the opposite corner.

The "outside" circle is called a Circumcircle, and it connects all vertices (corner
points) of the polygon. The Radius of the circumcircle is also the radius of the polygon.
The "inside" circle is called an Incircle and it just touches each side of the polygon at its
midpoint. The radius of the incircle is the Apothem of the polygon.

5.1. POLYHEDRONS.

A Polyhedron is a solid with flat faces. So no curved surfaces: cones, spheres


and cylinders are not polyhedrons.

5.1.1. THE PLATONIC SOLIDS.

A Platonic Solid is a 3D shape where:

Each face is the same Regular Polygon.


The same number of polygons meet at each vertex (corner).

5.1.2. PRISMS.

A Prism is a solid object with:

Identical ends.
Flat faces.
The same cross section all along its length.

A Cross Section is the shape made by cutting straight across an object.

Unit 10 April

The Cross Section of this object is a triangle it has the same cross section all
along its length so it's a Triangular Prism. The ends of a prism are parallel each one is
called a Base.

The side faces of a prism are Parallelograms (4-sided shapes with opposite
sides parallel).

These are all Prisms:

Unit 10 April

All the previous examples are Regular Prisms, because the cross section is
regular (in other words it is a shape with equal edge lengths, and equal angles.). Here is
an example of an Irregular Prism:

5.1.3. PYRAMIDS.

A Pyramid is made by connecting a base to an Apex:

There are many types of Pyramids, and they are named after the shape of their
Base.

This tells us where the top (apex) of the pyramid is. When the apex is directly
above the center of the base it is a Right Pyramid, otherwise it is an Oblique Pyramid.

This tells us about the shape of the base. When the base is a regular polygon it
is a Regular Pyramid, otherwise it is an Irregular Pyramid.

5.2. NON-POLYHEDRA.
5.2.1. SPHERE.

Properties:

It is perfectly symmetrical.
All points on the surface are the same distance "r" from the center.
It has no edges or vertices (corners).
It has one surface (not a "face" as it isn't flat).
It is not a polyhedron.
A Sphere is a Rotated Circle.

5.2.2. CYLINDER.

Properties:

It has a flat Base and a flat top.

Axel Cotn Gutirrez Mathematics 1 ESO 10.64


Unit 10 April

The base is the same as the top.


From base to top the shape stays the same.
It has one curved side.
It is not a polyhedron as it has a curved surface.
A Cylinder is a Rotated Rectangle.

5.2.3. CONE.

Properties:

It has a flat base.


It has one curved side.
It is not a polyhedron as it has a curved surface.
The pointy end of a cone is called the Apex.
The flat part is the Base
A Cone is a Rotated Triangle.
