| Concept | Definition | Diagram |
| Point | A point is a mark of position. It has neither length nor width nor thickness. | ![]() |
| Line | A line has only length. It has neither width nor thickness. | ![]() |
| Line Segment | A line segment is a part of a straight line. | ![]() |
| Ray | A ray is a straight line that starts from a given fixed point and moves in a same direction. |
![]() |
| Plane | It is a flat surface. A plane has length and width but no thickness. | ![]() |
| Angle | It is formed when two rays meet at a common point (vertex). | ![]() |
