Recap: horizontal and vertical lines
Recap: horizontal and vertical lines
Can you spot horizontal lines in the classroom? What about vertical lines?
Can you spot two straight lines that meet to make a right-angle in the classroom? List as many as you can on your papers!
Can you find two straight lines that meet to make a right-angle on this house?
When two straight lines meet at a right-angle, they are called perpendicular lines .
Are these lines perpendicular? Why? Why not? I think they are… because... I think they are not… because… TTYP
Can you find perpendicular lines in these pictures?
Which pair of lines are perpendicular? (1) (2)
Which pair of lines are perpendicular? (1) (2)
We’ve learnt about lines that meet, but what about lines that do not meet ? Can you spot any?
When two straight lines do not meet , they are called parallel lines .
Can you spot any parallel lines in the classroom? List as many as you can on your papers!
Are these lines parallel? Why? Why not? I think they are… because... I think they are not… because… TTYP
Can you find parallel lines in these pictures?
Which pair of lines are parallel?
Can you tell your partner what perpendicular lines are? Can you draw them for me? Can you tell your partner what parallel lines are? Can you draw them for me?
