Lines
 What I Need to Know

This module was designed and written with you in mind to

help you read and write fractions that are equal to one and
greater than one. The scope of this module permits it to be used in
many different learning situations. The language used recognizes
your diverse vocabulary backgrounds. The lessons are arranged to
follow the standard sequence of the course but the order in which
you read them can be changed to correspond with the
Mathematics Grade 3 learning materials you are using.
After going through this module, you are expected to:
1. Recognize and draw parallel, intersecting and
perpendicular lines
Enjoy your journey. Good luck!
 What I Know

Identify if the figures shown are parallel lines, intersecting lines, or

perpendicular lines.

Lesson Intersecting and Perpendicular
Lines
Look around you. You can see different lines. A road is forming a line,
students are forming lines, and the horizon is marking imaginary line. As you
look at your surroundings, the things have lines or even forming lines. Your
papers have lines; your uniforms and even the tiniest object in your pockets
have lines. As you see, all objects in this universe are in locations forming a
line. In this module you will be guided in recognizing and drawing parallel,
intersecting and perpendicular lines.

What’s In
Answer the given questions. Write the letter of the correct answer.

1.) Which of the following is a ray?

a. b. c. d.

2.) It is a collection of points along straight path.

a. Line b. line segment c. polygon d. ray

3.) Tell what figure is being shown.

a. Line b. line segment c. polygon d. ray

4.) It is the exact location in space.

a. ray b. line c. line segment d. point

5.) Which of the following is a line?

a. b. c. d.
 What’s New

You can see different lines in all the things around you. A line is a
collection of points along a straight path. Examine the figure below.

Line A

Line B

Line C Line D

The figure is an illustration of a fence. It is composed of horizontal and

vertical lines. Line A and Line B are horizontal lines. Line C and Line D are
vertical lines. What is formed when the horizontal and vertical lines meet?
Can you see a square corner? A square corner is formed when horizontal
and vertical lines meet.

What is It

Look at your papers. Can you see the horizontal lines? The horizontal
lines on your paper guide you in writing. Look at Line A and Line B. What do
we call these lines?
Line A

Line B

Line A and Line B are horizontal lines. As you notice, the two lines are
the same distance apart. If we will extend the two lines in each set, they will
never meet at a certain point. These lines are called parallel lines. Parallel
lines composed of two lines that will never meet no matter how far we will
extend them.

Now, study the lines below. What can you say about Line A and Line
C?

Line A

Line C
 What have you noticed at the intersecting point of the two lines? What
does it form? Lines A and C intersect at point O and form a corner. These
lines are called perpendicular lines. Perpendicular lines form square
corners. Perpendicular lines intersect and form four right angles.

Look at the illustration.

What have you noticed? These lines intersect at a certain point but
the point of intersection does not form right angles. These lines are called
intersecting lines. Lines that meet or intersect at a common point are called
intersecting lines.

What’s More

Identify if the figures shown are parallel, intersecting, or

perpendicular lines.

What I Have Learned

 Lines that meet or intersect at common point are called intersecting
lines. Intersecting lines that form square corners are called perpendicular
lines. Two lines that do not meet at a point are called parallel lines.

What I Can Do
Use your rulers and pencils to draw the following:

1. The upper and lower lines of your pad paper. Identify the figure that
you have drawn.

2. Vertical and horizontal lines that meet at the common point that will
form a square corner.

3. Two diagonal lines that meet at the common point.

Assessment
Answer the questions. Write the correct answers on your paper.

1. What kind of lines intersects and forms four right angles?

2. When two lines do not meet at a point, the two lines are
called____________.
3. Use a ruler to draw intersecting lines.
4. Use a ruler to draw perpendicular lines.
5. Use a ruler to draw parallel lines.
