Introductory Message

For the facilitator:

Welcome to the Technical Drawing 2 Self-Learning Module 2 on Geometric

Figures and Constructions!

This module was collaboratively designed, developed and reviewed by educators from
Schools Division Office of Pasig City headed by its Officer-In-Charge Schools Division
Superintendent, Ma. Evalou Concepcion A. Agustin in partnership with the Local
Government of Pasig through its Mayor, Honorable Vico Sotto.
The writers utilized the standards set by the K to 12 Curriculum using the Most
Essential Learning Competencies (MELC) while overcoming their personal, social,
and economic constraints in schooling.

This learning material hopes to engage the learners into guided and independent
learning activities at their own pace and time. Further, this also aims to help learners
acquire the needed 21st century skills especially the 5 Cs namely: Communication,
Collaboration, Creativity, Critical Thinking and Character while taking into
consideration their needs and circumstances.

In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the body of
the module:

Notes to the Teacher

This contains helpful tips or strategies that
will help you in guiding the learners.

As a facilitator you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this module.
You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them to manage
their own learning. Moreover, you are expected to encourage and assist the learners
as they do the tasks included in the module.
For the learner:

Welcome to the Technical Drawing 2 Self-Learning Module 2 on Geometric

Figures and Constructions!
The hand is one of the most symbolized part of the human body. It is often used to
depict skill, action and purpose. Through our hands we may learn, create and
accomplish. Hence, the hand in this learning resource signifies that you as a learner
is capable and empowered to successfully achieve the relevant competencies and
skills at your own pace and time. Your academic success lies in your own hands!

This module was designed to provide you with fun and meaningful opportunities for
guided and independent learning at your own pace and time. You will be enabled to
process the contents of the learning material while being an active learner.

This module has the following parts and corresponding icons:

Expectation - These are what you will be able to know after

completing the lessons in the module

Pre-test - This will measure your prior knowledge and the

concepts to be mastered throughout the lesson.

Recap - This section will measure what learnings and skills

that you understand from the previous lesson.

Lesson- This section will discuss the topic for this module.

Activities - This is a set of activities you will perform.

Wrap Up- This section summarizes the concepts and

applications of the lessons.

Valuing-this part will check the integration of values in the

learning competency.

Post-test - This will measure how much you have learned from
the entire module.
 EXPECTATIONS

At the end of the lesson, the learners should be able to:

1. define technical terms used in geometrical constructions;
2. familiarize the technical terms used in geometrical constructions; and
3. show interest to learn about geometrical constructions.

PRE–TEST
WHAT DO YOU ALREADY KNOW?
Let us find out how much you know about geometric construction.
True or False.
Directions. Write T if the statement is correct and write F if the statement is
incorrect. Write your answer on the blank before the number.
_____1. Diameter is a straight line drawn from the center to circumference of the
circle.
_____2. Tangent is a straight line which touches the circumference in only one point
even if the line is extended.
_____3. Trapezium has two opposite sides parallel.
_____4. Square has four equal side and its angles are right angle.
_____5. Hexagon has seven equal sides and angles.

RECAP
Let us find out if you still remember our previous lesson. Try to answer the following
questions.

1. Can you give at least three kinds of angles?

2. What are the four kinds of triangles?
3. What is meant by point?
 LESSON

Geometric constructions.
Technical drawing works with lines, angles, circles and intersections, with
solids, and with geometric shapes, such as hexagon. Constructions of this kind
involve the principles of geometry. This lesson provides more information about the
theory of geometric constructions.
Circle. It is a figure of a closed curve, all points of which equidistant from the
center.
Circumference- the distance around the circle.
Diameter- a straight line drawn through the center of a circle meeting the
circumference at both ends.
Radius- a straight line drawn from the center to the circumference.
Arc- any part of the circumference.
Chord- any straight line drawn across the circle meeting the circumference at
both ends.
Tangent- a straight line which touches the circumference in only one point even
if the line is extended to any direction.
Segment- a part of a circle bounded by an arc and a chord.
Sector- a part of a circle bounded by two radii and an arc.
Quadrant- a part of a circle bounded by two radii at right angles and an arc.

Dia X 3.1416
Diameter
Quadrant

Tangent

Quadrilateral. It is a plane figure bounded by four straight sides.

Square- four equal sides and its angles are right angles.
Rectangle- its opposite sides equal and all its angles are right angles.
Rhombus- all its sides equal and its angles other than right angle
Rhomboid- its opposite sides parallel and its angles are other than right angle.
Trapezoid- two opposite sides parallel
Trapezium- four unequal sides and angles
Deltoid- its adjacent pair of sides of equal length.

Square Rectangle Rhombus Rhomboid

 Trapezoid Trapezium Deltoid

Regular Polygon. A plane figure bounded by straight lines with equal sides and
angles.
Pentagon has 5 sides
Hexagon has 6 sides
Heptagon has 7 sides
Octagon has 8 sides
Nonagon has 9 sides
Decagon has 10 sides pentagon hexagon
5 sides 6 sides

ACTIVITIES
