Geometry Spatial Sense Measurement 5.8 Topic
Geometry Standard Identifies and distinguishes
among point, ray, line, line segment, and angle.
Lesson Objective(s) Students will
review vocabulary for these terms and then
identify/label examples correctly.
2
Highlight the points on the map.
3
Line A straight path that goes on forever in
both directions.
The equator, lines of longitude, and lines of
latitude are all imaginary lines that run in
both directions around the Earth.
Click on the green line to place it on the
equator. Rotate the line to show the Prime
Meridian.
4
Line Segment A straight path between two endpoints
In Geometry the endpoints are named with a
letter. Use the stylus to name these endpoints.
5
Ray A straight path that has one endpoint and
goes on forever.
Place the rays on the sun.
6
Angle A figure that is formed by two rays or two
line segments that have the same endpoint.
Show the angle for 545.
Show the angle for a trip that BEGINS in San
Paulo, Brazil, stops in Mexico City, and ENDS in
New York. (You will overlap endpoints in Mexico
City)
