Question | Answer |
---|---|
Point | A physical location in space that has no dimension |
Distance | The length of a Straight line segment |
Line | An infinite set of points that extends forever in two directions |
Ray | An infinite set collection of points that exstends forever iin one direction. |
Angle | The Geometric object created by to rays with a common starting point. |
The measure of an angle | what the degree is. |
Acute angle | somewhere between 0 and 90 degrees. |
Obtuse Angle | Has a Measure between 90 and 180 |
right angle | an angle that measures 90 |
straight angle | an angle that measures 180 |
Reflex Angle | an angle that measures between 180 and 360 |
Complementary angles | two angles that add to 90 |
Supplementary Angles | two angles that add to 180 |
collinear | Three or more points that ly on the same line |
Axiom | A fact thats true without proof. |
Line Segment | A line with a start and an end. |
Vertical angles | opposite angles when lines intersect and theyre equal always |
Circle | a round plane figure whose boundary consists of points equidistant from a fixed point |
Radius | a straight line from the center to the circumference of a circle or sphere. |
Euilateral Triangle | equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides have the same length. In the familiar Euclidean geometry |
Congruent | equal to |
SSS | triangle congruence theorm where all sides are congruent. |
Isosceles Triangle | A triangle that has 2 equal sides. |
Midpoint | center point of a line segment. |
Angle Bisector | cuts an angle into 2 different pieces. |
perpendicular | makes a right angle |
euclid's parallel postulate | One of the five postulates, or axioms, of Euclid underpinning Euclidean geometry |
Transformation | rigid motions including dialation |
Rigid motion | moving on a plane while stayin the same shape and size. |
rotation | spinning without changeing size or shape. |
Reflection | moving across an axis without changing size or shape. |
Translation | moving on a plane without chaging size or shape. |
Dialtion | changing size of a shape. |
Parrallel lines | lines that dont intersect |
Transversal | an intersecting of a systme of lines |
Alternate interior Angles | always congruent, on opposite sides of parrollel lines. |
Corresponding Angles | When two lines are crossed by another line the angles in matching corners are called corresponding angles. |
Trapezoid | a quadrilateral with only one pair of parallel sides. |
Geomitry transformation | A transformation is a process which changes the position of a shape |
Regular Polygon | In Euclidean geometry, a regular polygon is a polygon that is equiangular |
Kite | In Euclidean geometry, a kite is a quadrilateral whose four sides can be grouped into two pairs of equal-length sides that are adjacent to each other |
Adjacent | next to or adjoining something else. |
