In geometry, how do defined terms and undefined terms relate to each other?

In geometry, definitions are formed using known words or terms to describe a new word. There are three words in geometry that are not formally defined. These three undefined terms are point, line and plane. 

<span>POINT (an undefined term) </span>
<span>In geometry, a point has no dimension (actual size). Even though we represent a point with a dot, the point has no length, width, or thickness. A point is usually named with a capital letter. In the coordinate plane, a point is named by an ordered pair, (x,y). </span>

<span>LINE (an undefined term) </span>
<span>In geometry, a line has no thickness but its length extends in one dimension and goes on forever in both directions. A line is depicted to be a straight line with two arrowheads indicating that the line extends without end in two directions. A line is named by a single lowercase written letter or by two points on the line with an arrow drawn above them. </span>

<span>PLANE (an undefined term) </span>
<span>In geometry, a plane has no thickness but extends indefinitely in all directions. Planes are usually represented by a shape that looks like a tabletop or wall. Even though the diagram of a plane has edges, you must remember that the plane has no boundaries. A plane is named by a single letter (plane m) or by three non-collinear points (plane ABC). </span>

<span>Undefined terms can be combined to define other terms. Noncollinear points, for example, are points that do not lie on the same line. A line segment is the portion of a line that includes two particular points and all points that lie between them, while a ray is the portion of a line that includes a particular point, called the end point, and all points extending infinitely to one side of the end point. </span>

<span>Defined terms can be combined with each other and with undefined terms to define still more terms. An angle, for example, is a combination of two different rays or line segments that share a single end point. Similarly, a triangle is composed of three noncollinear points and the line segments that lie between them. </span>

<span>Everything else builds on these and adds more information to this base. Those added things include all the theorems and other "defined" terms like parallelogram or acute angle. </span>

35r−21&lt;−35r+19 solve for r
topjm [15]

Answer:r<4/7

Step-by-step explanation:

35r-21<-35r+19

Collect like terms

35r+35r<21+19

70r<40

divide both sides by 70

70r/70<40/70

r<40/70

r<4/7

A bag contains 666 red balls, 444 green balls, and 333 blue balls. If we choose a ball, then another ball without putting the fi
Ronch [10]

Answer:

P(GR)=\frac{2}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Number Of Red Balls=6

Number Of Green Balls=4

Number Of blue Balls=3

Total Number Of Balls=6+4+3=13

Notice that the two balls are picked without replacement. In this case, the total number of balls always decreases.

P(first ball will be green and the second will be red)

=\dfrac{4}{13} X \dfrac{6}{12}  \\=\dfrac{2}{13}

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

$1.475 is the average amount of snack sales per ticket sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Number of popcorn bags sold = 3

Cost of  a popcorn bag = $2.25

Total cost of popcorn bag = 2.25\times 3 = $6.75

Number of soda sold = 4

Cost of  a soda = $1.50

Total cost of soda = 1.50\times 4 = $6.00

Number of candy bars sold = 2

Cost of  a candy bar = $1.00

Total cost of candy bars =  1.00\times 2 = $2.00

Total sales =

Total cost of popcorn + Total cost of soda + Total cost of candy bar

= 6.75 + 6 + 2\\=\$14.75

\text{Average} = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observation}}

Average amount of snack sales per ticket sold =

\dfrac{\text{Total sales}}{\text{Number of tickets}} = \dfrac{14.75}{10} = 1.475

Thus, $1.475 is the average amount of snack sales per ticket sold.
