Unit 6 Mr. Brumfield
2Investigating Line Segments, Rays, and Lines
6.1
- Our objective is to review line segments and to
introduce rays and lines.
What are line segments, rays, and lines?
3Mental Math
- Write the following numbers on your slates.
- Pay close attention to the place values.
- four and three tenths
- eleven and thirty-two hundreths
- sixty-three and one thousandth
- four thousand three hundred twenty-eight and
sixty-two hundredths - one hundred and sixteen thousandths
4Math Message
- Take 5 straws
- Use them to make 2 triangles
5Math Message Follow Up
- How could you make two triangles?
If your triangles share a side, you would be able
to make two triangles.
What would you call the type of line shared by
the triangles?
6Line Segments
- A line that has a beginning and ending endpoint
- Endpoints
- The beginning and ending points on the line
segment - Rules
- A line segment can be any length but must have
two endpoints - A line segment is always straight, it marks the
shortest path - A line segment can go in any direction in space
- All shapes are made up of line segments
Can you find examples of line segments around the
room?
7Rays
- A line that has one endpoint and goes in one
direction forever - Arrowhead
- We cannot draw a line that goes forever, so the
arrowhead symbolizes that the ray continues
forever - Rules
- A ray must have one endpoint and one arrowhead
- A ray is always straight
- A ray can go in any direction in space
Can you think of any examples of rays?
8Lines
- A line that has two arrowheads and extends
forever - Arrowhead
- We cannot draw a line that goes forever, so the
arrowhead symbolizes that the ray continues
forever - Rules
- A line must have two arrowheads
- A line can go in any direction in space
- A line is always straight
- A line is infinite, it never begins or ends
What word means forever and ever?
9Naming Line Segments, Rays, and Lines
- There is a different way to name each type of
line.

Line Segments and Lines can be reversed because
of the turnaround rule. With a ray though, you
have to be very careful to match the endpoint
with the correct letter name and the arrowhead
with the correct name.
10Practice Identifying Types of Lines
- Write S next to the line segments
- Write R next to the rays
- Write L next to the lines
11Practice Drawing Types of Lines
- Draw line segment RT
- Draw ray TA
- Draw line ZW
- Draw line segment SB
- Draw ray CO
- Draw line MN

partner to check each others work. - Complete the math boxes on page 130.
13Parallel and Intersecting
6.2
- Our objective is to find, form, and draw
parallel and intersecting lines.
What are parallel and intersecting lines?
14Mental Math
- Write the following numbers on your slates.
- Identify the place values as I instruct.
- four hundred eleven
- one thousand three hundred twelve
- six million three hundred forty-one thousand six
hundred - thirty-two thousand six hundred eighty-five
- nine hundred six and forty-two hundredths
Find the difference between the greatest and
least numbers.
15Math Message
- Take 3 straws and 3 twist ties
- Use them to represent 3 rays
Review the differences between lines, line
segments, and rays.
16What do you know about parallel lines?
- Parallel lines, rays, and line segments are lines
that run the same direction and remain the same
distance apart. They never meet or cross.
List some examples of where we might find
parallel lines.
17What do you know about intersecting lines?
- Intersecting lines, line segments, and rays are
lines that cross. They meet at some point,
forming angles.
List some examples of where we might find
intersecting lines.
18Who wants to help me make parallel and
intersecting lines?
- We will be using rope and Chinese jump ropes to
make parallel and intersecting lines. - If you are working with partners, work
cooperatively. Take turns, follow directions, and
share responsibilities.
19Prepare yourself for a Line Safari
- We will be scouring Lawnton in search of parallel
and intersecting lines. - When you find an example, record your discoveries
on math journal page 131.

with the twist tie to form an angle.
What is an angle?
24Get up off of your chair!
- We are going to practice turns.

29Mental Math
Extend your arm straight out in front of
you. Bend your elbow and slowly move your hand
toward your face. Think of the parts of your arm
above and below your elbow as two sides of an
angle. The angle becomes smaller as your hand
moves closer to your face. Now do the following

The vertex is where the lines meet. There are 3
vertices in a triangle.
An angle is a figure that is formed by two rays
or line segments share an endpoint.
