1
Point
Indicates a location or position. It has no length, width, or thickness.
2
Line
A set of points that extends infinitely
3
Plane
A set of points that extends indefinitely across a flat surface
4
Line Segment
Part of a line consisting of 2 points called endpoints and all points on the line between these endpoints
5
Congruent Segments
Exactly the same
6
Midpoint
The point that divides the segment into two congruent segments
7
Bisector of a Line Segment
A line or line segment that cuts a segment into 2 congruent segments
8
Ray
Part of a line that consists of a point on the line, called an endpoint, and allthe points on the other side of that endpoint
9
Opposite Ray
2 rays of the same line with a common endpoint and no other points in common
10
Angle
The space between the union of 2 rays with the same endpoint
11
Straight Angle
Angle with sides that are opposite rays. It measures 180 degrees. It looks like a line, but it’s the space between the 2 rays
12
Acute Angle
An angle whose measure is larger than 0 degrees and smaller than 90 degrees
13
Obtuse Angle
Angle that measures greater than 90 degrees and smaller than 180 degrees
14
Right Angle
Angle that measures exactly 90 degrees
15
Complementary Angles
2 angles whose measures add up to 90 degrees
16
Supplementary Angles
2 angles whose measures add up to 180 degrees
17
Angle Bisector
A ray whise endpoint is the vertex of the angle and divides the angle into 2 congruent angles
18
Linear Pair
2 adjacent angles whose measures add to 180 degrees
19
Adjacent Angles
2 angles that share a vertex but do not share any interior points
20
Vertical Angles
2 angles in which the sides of one angle are opposite rays to the sides of the second angle
21
Isosceles Triangle
2 equal sides, base angles are the same
22
Equilateral Triangle
3 equal sides, all sides are equal
23
Right Triangle
Triangle with a 90 degree angle
24
Acute Angle
Each angle is larger than 0 degrees and smaller than 90 degrees
25
Obtuse Triangle
Has an angle larger than 90 degrees, but less than 180 degrees
26
Equiangular
All angles are equal, 60 degrees
27
Perpendicular Line
2 lines that meet or
28
Scalene Triangle
no equal sides, no equal angles
29
Right Triangle
triangle with a 90° angle
30
Equiangular
all angles are equal, each 60°
31
Perpendicular Line
two lines that meet or intersect at 90° to form a right angle
32
Perpendicular Bisector
A line or line segment that cut a segment into two equal parts at 90°
33
Median
A line segment From any vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side
34
Altitude
Line segment from any vertex to the opposite side perpendicular to the base
35
Angles on a line sum up to _____
180 degrees
