0bjectives: I can define plane figures. I can enumerate all the principal geometric plane figures. I can draw the different principal geometric plane figures.
PLANE FIGURE - are flat two-dimensional (2D) shape. A plane figure can be made of straight lines, curved lines, or both straight and curved lines.
Plane Figures Principal Geometric Plane Figure The Circle - The circle is a shape that can be made by tracing a curve that is always the same distance from a point that we call the center. The distance around a circle is called the circumference of the circle.
Plane figures The Triangle - The triangle is a shape that is formed by 3 straight lines that are called sides. There are different ways of classifying triangles, according to their sides or angles.
Plane figures According to their angles: Right triangle: the largest of the 3 angles is a right angle. Acute Triangle: the largest of the 3 angles is an acute angle (less than 90 degrees). Obtuse Triangle: the largest of the 3 angles is an obtuse angle (more than 90 degrees).
Plane Figures 2. According to their sides: Equilateral Triangle: all 3 sides are the same length. Isosceles Triangle: it has 2 (or more) sides that are of equal length. (An equilateral triangle is also isosceles.) Scalene Triangle: no 2 sides are of equal measure.
Plane Figures The Rectangle - The rectangle is a shape that has 4 sides. The distinguishing characteristic of a rectangle is that all 4 angles measure 90 degrees.
Plane Figures The Rhombus - The rhombus is a shape formed by 4 straight lines. Its 4 sides measure the same length but, unlike the rectangle, any of all 4 angles measure 90 degrees.
Plane Figures The Square - The square is a type of rectangle, but also a type of rhombus. It has characteristics of both of these. That is to say, all 4 angles are right angles, and all 4 sides are equal in length.
Plane Figures The Trapezoid - The trapezoid also has 4 sides. It has two sides that are parallel but the other 2 are not.
