Properties of Lines and Angles
In this section, we will learn about some general properties of lines and angles:
Properties of Lines
There are the following properties of line
- Line has only one dimension i.e. length. It does not have breadth and height.
- A line has infinite points on it.
- Three points lying on a line are called collinear points
Properties of Angles
There are the following properties of angles
- Angles tell about how much a person has rotated from his position.
- Angles are formed when two lines meet and they are called arms of the angle.

Lines and Angles
Lines and Angles are the basic terms used in the Geometry. They provide a base for understanding all the concepts of geometry. We define a line as a 1-D figure which can be extended to infinity in opposite directions, whereas an angle is defined as the opening created by joining two or more lines. An angle is measured in degrees or in radians depending on the concept of the problem.
All the geometrical figures have lines and angles and having an understanding of them helps us to better understand the world of Geometry. In this article, we will learn about lines, angles, their types, properties, and others in detail.
