Geometry Congruence

Definition for geometry congruence:

In Geometry, we study different figure, their properties the relations between them. Every figure has its shape, size and Position. Given two figures you can easily decide whether they are of the same shape.

Figures having same shape and size  and angles are called congruent. Congruent means equal in all respects of the given figure. If two figures are congruent then it means that the size, shape and measurement of the first figure correspond to the size, shape and measurements of the second figure. I like to share this Symbol for Congruence with you all through my article.


Congruence for geometry:


If two persons compare the size shape of their fore-hands, they will do so by comparing thumb with thumb, fore-finger with fore-finger etc. Thus thumb corresponds to thumb. Similarly the two fore-fingers correspond to each other.

When we put a figure on another figure in such a way that the first figure covers the other figure completely i.e. all parts of the first figure completely cover the corresponding parts of the other. Then these figures will be said to be congruent to each other.

The relation property of two figures being congruent is called congruence. When two figures are congruent we denote them symbolically as. One figure ≅ second figure. The property of congruence, as you know is symbolically represented as ≅.


Important points in congruence of geometry:


Congruency in geometry means to be equal in all respect.
Two figures can be said to be congruent only when all parts of one are equal to the corresponding parts of the other.
The property of congruence of figures is called congruency.
If two line segments are congruent then they must have the same length.
If two angles are congruent then their measures must be equal.
Two triangles are congruent only
Two squares are congruent if they have the same side length.
Two rectangles are congruent if they have the same length and breadth.
Two circles are congruent if they have the same radius.
Sum of the three angles of a triangle is equal to 1800 therefore. if the measures of any two of them are given the third can be ascertained.

Coordinate Systems Geometry

Introduction of coordinate systems geometry:

Geometry is one of the basic and oldest topics in the mathematics. Geometry is used to study the characteristics and properties of the figure. Let every point on a straight line is associated with exactly one real number only. Rene Descartes, a mathematician who is the first man to introduce an algebraic geometry of coordinate systems. A plane is a collection of points in a space of the coordinate systems of geometry.Is this topic Lateral Area of a Rectangular Prism hard for you? Watch out for my coming posts.

About the coordinate systems:


Let us consider a sheet of the paper as the plane and draw two fixed perpendicular straight lines in that plane of the paper which will be intersecting at a point.

We always draw a straight line in horizontal direction and the other line will be a vertical line. These two lines which will meet at a common point and it is named as O and called the origin.

We represents that the horizontal as x–axis and the vertical line as y–axis.

The two lines which divides the plane into four parts namely quadrants. These quadrants are named as I quadrant, II quadrant, III quadrant and IV quadrant in geometry systems.

I have recently faced lot of problem while learning Volume of Cube, But thank to online resources of math which helped me to learn myself easily on net.

Constructing co-ordinates system geometry:


Consider any point P in the plane. This point P lies in a quadrant.

From P, draw a straight line parallel to the y–axis to meet the x–axis at the point L, and draw a straight line parallel to the x–axis to meet the y–axis at the point M.

Let 'a' representing the point L on x–axis and 'b' representing the point M on y–axis.

If P lies on the x– axis, then b = 0.If a = 0, then a> 0 and b > 0. If a < 0 and b > 0, then P lies within the II quadrant.

If P lies within the III quadrant, then a< 0 and b < 0. If a > 0 and b < 0, then P lies within the IV quadrant If P is the point O, then a = 0 and b = 0. The number a is called the x–coordinate of the coordinate system of point P and the number b the y–coordinate of the coordinate systems of geometry.

The plane now is called the rectangular coordinate plane systems or the xy–plane.

How To Solve Geometry

Introduction :

Geometry is a branch of mathematics, which deals with lines, curves, solids, surfaces and points in space. In geometry, a point has a position only and is represented by a dot. A point has no length, width, or thickness. A line has length but no thickness or width. The position of a line with end points are called line segment.


How to solve Geometry Problems:


Geometry Problem 1:

Solve the equation of the straight line parallel to 6x + 4y = 12 and which passes through the point (3, − 3).

Solution:
The straight line parallel to 6x + 4y − 12 = 0 is of the form
6x + 4y + k = 0 … (1)
the point (3, − 3) satisfies the equation (1)
Hence 18 − 12 + k = 0 i.e. k = -6
3x + 2y - 6 = 0 is the equation of the required straight line.

Geometry Problem 2:

Solve the equation of the straight-line perpendicular to the straight line 3x + 4y + 28 = 0 and passing through the point (− 1, 4).

Solution:
The equation of any straight- line perpendicular to 3x + 4y + 28 = 0 is of the form4x − 3y + k = 0
the point (− 1, 4) lies on the straight line    4x − 3y + k = 0
− 4 − 12 + k = 0 ⇒ k = 16
the equation of the required straight line is 4x − 3y + 16 = 0

Geometry problem 3:

The lengths of two sides of right triangle are 7 cm and 24cm. Find its hypotenuses.

Solution:

AC = 7 cm
BC = 24 cm
AB  = ?
AB^2 = 7^2 + 24^2
= 49 + 576
AB^2  = 625
AB = √625 = 25

Thus, the hypotenuses are 25 cms in length.



Geometry Problems to practice:


1) Solve the equation of straight line passing through the points (1, 2) and (3, − 4).

Ans: 3x+y = 5

2) Solve the distance between the parallel lines 2x + 3y − 6=0 and 2x + 3y + 7 = 0.

Ans: √13 units

3) Find the point of intersection of the straight lines 5x + 4y − 13 = 0 and 3x + y − 5 = 0.

Ans: The point of intersection is (1, 2)

4) Solve the equation of the curve formed by the set of all those points the sum of whose distances from the points A (4, 0, 0) and B (-4, 0, 0) is 10 units.

Ans: 9x^2+25y^2+25z^2-225=0.

Geometry Expression

Introduction for geometry expression:
Geometry expression is one of the most important lesson in the geometry. Geometry gives the different geometrical shapes and diagrams in our daily life such as articles in the houses, wells, buildings, bridges etc. The word ‘Geometry’ means a learning of properties for diagrams and shapes. The basic shapes of geometry are point, line, square, rectangle, triangle, and circle. The geometry of plane figure is known as Euclidean geometry or plane geometry. Here we are going to learn about examples of geometry expression problems and practice problem. Understanding Definition for Trapezoid is always challenging for me but thanks to all math help websites to help me out.


Example problems for geometry expression:


Problem 1:

Find the equation of the line having slope 1/2 and y-intercept -3.

Given:

m = `1/2` , b = -3

y = mx +b

Solution:

Apply the slope-intercept formula, the equation of the line is

y = `1/2` x + (-3)

2y = x - 6

x - 2y - 6 = 0

Problem 2:

Solve of geometric expressions based on two angles of a triangle measure 35° and 75° and to find the measure of the third angle.

Solution:

Let the measure of third angle be X

We know that the sum, of the angles of a triangle is 180°

35° + 75° + x = 180°

Solving the expression we get,

110° + x = 180°

X  = 180° – 110°

= 70°

Problem 3:

Find the midpoint between the given points (1, 3) and (3, 7).

Solution:

Given: x1 = 1, y1 = 3 and x2 = 3, y2 = 7

Formula:

(xm, ym) = [`(x1 + x2) / 2 ` , `(y1 + y2) / 2` ].

=` (1 + 3) / 2` ,` (3 + 7) / 2`

= `4 / 2` , `10 / 2` .

= 2, 5

Answer:

The midpoint for the given points (2, 5)

Definitions of Geometry

Introduction to definitions of geometry:

"Earth-measuring" is a part of mathematics concerned with questions of size, shape, relative position of figures, and the properties of space. Geometry is one of the oldest sciences. Initially a body of practical knowledge concerning lengths, areas, and volumes, in the 3rd century BC geometry was put into an axiomatic form by Euclid, whose treatment—Euclidean geometry—set a standard for many centuries to follow. A mathematician who works in the field of geometry is called a geometer. Source – wikipedia.


Importants definitions of Geometry :

There are various terms and definitions involved in geometry. Some of them are listed below:

Lines:

In geometry if A and B are the two points in the plane. There is only one line AB containing the points. The region where two points connects via the shortest path and continues indefinitely in both the directions is referred as a line.

Line segments:

Line segment is a part of line between two points. The line Segments that intersect at an angle of 90° is called Perpendicular line segments and the line segments that never intersect are known as parallel line segments.

Angles:

An angle is an inclination between two rays with the same initial point.

Right angle:

Angle that measures 90° is referred as right angle

Acute angle:

Angle that measures less than 90° is referred as Acute angle

Obtuse angle:

An angle that measures more than 90° is referred as Obtuse angle.

Scalene triangle:

A triangle in which all three sides has different lengths is known as Scalene Triangles.

Isosceles triangle:

A triangle with two equal length sides and also with two equal internal angles is referred as an isosceles triangle.

Equilateral triangle:

In geometry if a triangle has the equal length on all three sides, then it is referred as Equilateral triangle.

Axioms:

Certain statements are assumed as being true without proof apart from the theorems. Such assumptions are called axioms.

Complementary angles:

Two angles are said to be complementary if their sum is 90° and each is called the complement of the other.

Supplementary angles:

Two angles are said to be supplementary if their sum is 180° and each is called the supplement of the other.


Important definitions of geometry: Circles


The followings are some of the important definitions of geometry in circles.

Circles:

A and B are two concentric circles with radii r and R respectively and O is the center of the circle.

Circumference:

The distance around a circle is called the circumference of a circle.

Radius:

It is the distance from center of a circle to any point on that circle's circumference.

Chord:

Chord is a line segment joining two points on a curve.

Arc:

Part of a curve is referred as an arc.

Concentric circles:

Circles having the same center but different radii are called concentric circles.

Intersecting circles:

Two circles are said to be intersecting when they cut at two different points.

Touching circles:

In geometry two circles are said to touch one another if they meet only at one point. The point at which they touch one another is called the point of contact.

6th Grade Geometry Problems

Introduction:

Sixth grade geometric contains the basic of geometricals .It includes the topic of geometric in Points, Lines ,Line segment, Triangles, Types of triangles, circles, Angles, Types of Angles, Quadrilaterals

Geometric Definitions:

Point: A point   determines the location of particular area.

Line:   A line through two points A and B is written as AB.. It extends

Indefinitely in both directions. So it contains countless number of points. Two points are enough to fix a line

Types of lines:

Intersecting lines
Parallel lines
Perpendicular lines

Triangles in Geometry:


Triangles:

A triangle is a three-sided polygon. In fact, it is the polygon with the least number of sides

Types of Triangle:

Equilateral Triangle
When all the three sides of a triangle are equal to each other, it is called an Equilateral triangle. Each angle measures to 60 degrees. It is a type of regular polygon.

Isosceles Triangle
When two sides of a triangle are equal it is called an Isosceles triangle. It also have two equal angles.

Scalene Triangle
When no two sides of a triangle are equal the triangle is called Scalene triangle. It has three unequal sides.

Area of triangle: 1/2(Base*Height)

Perimeter of Triangle: (Sum of three sides)

Example problem:

1.Find the area of triangle base is 4cm,height is 2cm

Solution:

Area=1/2(4*2)

=8/2

=4cm2

2.Find perimeter of Triangle side lengths are 5cm,5cm,8cm

Solution:

Perimeter=(A+B+C)(Sum of three side lengths)

A=5, B=5, C=8

=(A+B+C)

=5+5+8

=18cm


Angles and Circle in Geometry


Angle:

Right Triangle
. Right angle is equal to 90 degrees. It obeys Pythagoras theorem.

Acute angle
. Acute angle is an angle which is less than 90 degrees.

Obtuse angle
An Obtuse angle is an angle which is greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.

Acute angle:
Acute and Obtuse triangles are also called as Oblique triangles because they don’t have any angle measuring 90 degrees.

Quadrilateral:
A four sided polygon is a quadrilateral. It has sides and 4 angles

Circle:

Are of circle=Pi*r*r

Circumference of Triangle=2*Pi*r

Diameter=2*Radius

Example:

Solution:

1.     Area=Pi*r*r (r=4) (Pi=3.14 constant)

=3.14*4*4

=50.24cm2

2. Circumference =2*pi*r

=2*3.14*4

=25.12cm
