pair of angles on the outer side of each of those two lines but on opposite sides of the transversal
Back
corresponding angles
Front
When two lines are crossed by another line (which is called the Transversal), the angles in matching corners are called corresponding angles.
Back
Converse of Same Side Interior
Front
If two lines are cut by a transversal and the same side interior angles are supplementary, then the lines are parallel
Back
complementary
Front
when 2 angles are put together they equal 90 degrees (when you compliment Mrs.Dieppa you are right and a right angle is 90 degrees
Back
Transversal
Front
intersecting a system of lines
Back
Segment
Front
a line with 2 endpoints
Back
Reflexive Property
Front
The reflexive property of equality simply states that a value is equal to itself ex: a=a
Back
Transitive Property
Front
If a = b and b = c, then a = c
Back
parallel lines
Front
lines in the same plane that do not intersect
Back
vertical angles
Front
two nonadjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines
Back
adjacent angles
Front
Two angles are Adjacent when they have a common side and a common vertex and don't interlap
Back
Plane
Front
a flat two-dimensional surface that extends infinitely far
Back
Segment Addition Postulate
Front
If B is between A & C, then AB + BC = AC.
(basically means: 2 connected segments added together will equal measure of big segment formed by both)
Back
postulate
Front
Postulates are the basic structure from which theorems are derived
Back
Substitution Property
Front
x = y, then x can be substituted in for y in any equation, and y can be substituted for x in any equation.
Back
Converse of Alternate Exterior
Front
If two lines are cut by a transversal and the alternate exterior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel
Back
Obtuse Angle
Front
It is more than 90° and less than 180°
Back
Angle Addition Postulate
Front
The postulate describes that putting two angles side by side with their vertices together creates a new angle whose measure equals the sum of the measures of the two original angles
Back
Line
Front
a line of points that goes on forever in two directions
Back
Acute Angle
Front
The range of an acute angle is between 0 and 90 degrees
Back
same side exterior angles
Front
Two angles that are exterior to the parallel lines and on the same side of the transversal line
Back
Straight Angle
Front
an angle of 180°
Back
segment bisector
Front
a segment, ray, line, or plane that intersects a segment at its midpoint
Back
Linear Pair
Front
A linear pair of angles is formed when two lines intersect;
formed by two intersecting lines;
straight equals 180 degrees
Back
Converse of Corresponding
Front
If two lines and a transversal form corresponding angles that are congruent, then the lines are parallel.
Back
Supplementary
Front
when 2 angles are put together they equal 180 degrees
Back
Symmetric Property
Front
we can interchange the sides of an equation and the equation is still a true statement
If a = b, then b = a
Back
alternate interior angles
Front
formed when a transversal passes through two lines
Back
perpendicular angles
Front
Two lines that intersect to form right angles
Back
Rights Angles
Front
an angle of 90°
Back
Point
Front
a point is a specific location on a line or graph
Back
same side interior angles
Front
two angles that are on the same side of the transversal and on the interior of (between) the two lines
Back
Midpoint
Front
the middle point of a line segment
Back
Angle bisector
Front
a ray that divides an angle into 2 congruent angles
Back
Ray
Front
Line with one endpoint while other side goes on forever
