Question | Answer |
---|---|
Vertical Angles Theorem | If 2 angles are vertical angles, then the angles are congruent |
Transversal | a line that intersects at least 2 coplanar lines at 2 different points |
Corresponding angles | lie on the same side of the transversal and the same side of intersected lines |
Same-side interior angles | lie on the same side of the transversal and between the intersected lines |
Alternate interior angles | nonadjacent angles that lie on the opposite sides of the transversal between the intersected lines |
Alternate exterior angles | lie on the opposite sides of the transversal and outside the intersected lines |
Same-side interior angles postulate | If 2 parallel lines are cut by a transversal then the pairs of same-side interior angles are supplementary |
Alternate Interior Angles Theorem | If 2 parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of alternate interior angles have the same measure |
Corresponding Angles Theorem | If 2 parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of corresponding angles have the same measure |
Converse of the Same-Side Interior Angles Postulate | If 2 lines are cut by a transversal of same-side interior angles are supplementary, then the lines are parallel |
Converse of the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem | If 2 lines are cut by a transversal so that any pair of alternate interior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel |
Converse of the Corresponding Angles Theorem | If 2 lines are cut by a transversal so that any pair of corresponding angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel |
The Parallel Postulate | Through a point P not on line l, there is exactly one line parallel to l |
Perpendicular Bisector Theorem | If a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment |
Converse of the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem | If a point is equidistant from the endpoints, then it lies on the perpendicular bisector of the segment |
Triangular Sum Theorem | the sum of the angle measures of a triangle is 180 degrees |
Polygon Angle Sum Theorem | the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a convex polygon with n sides is (n-2)(180 degrees) |
Exterior Angle Theorem | the measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures |
Regular Polygon | all sides are equal; all angles are equal |
Isosceles triangle | a triangle with at least two congruent sides |
Isosceles Triangle Theorem | If 2 sides of a triangle are congruent, then the two angles opposite the sides are congruent |
Equilateral Triangle Theorem | If a triangle is equilateral, then it is equiangular |
Converse of the Equilateral Triangle Theorem | If a triangle is equiangular, then it is equilateral |
Triangle Inequality Theorem | The sum of any two side lengths of a triangle is greater than the 3rd side length 1. AB + BC > AC 2. BC + AC > AB 3. AC + AB > BC |
Side-Angle Relationships in Triangles | If 2 sides of a triangle are not congruent, then the larger angle is opposite the longer side |
Angle-Side Relationships in Triangles | If 2 angles of a triangle are not congruent, then the longer side is opposite the larger side |
Circumcenter Theorem | The perpendicular bisectors of the side of a triangle intersect at a point that is equidistant from the vertices of the triangle |
