(46 cards)

parallel lines

Front

lines in the same plane that never intersect

Back

Angle addition postulate

Front

If P is in the interior of <RST, then m<RSP + m<PST = m<RST

Back

Isosceles triangle

Front

a triangle with at least two congruent sides

Back

conclusion

Front

A summary based on evidence or facts

Back

Supplementary angles

Front

Two angles whose sum is 180 degrees

Back

Regular triangle

Front

All congruent sides and angles

Back

transversal

Front

a line that intersects two or more coplanar lines at different points

Back

theorem

Front

A mathematical statement which we can prove to be true

Back

postulate

Front

something accepted as true without proof; an axiom

Back

Vertex angle

Front

The angle formed by the legs of an isosceles triangle.

Back

conditional statements

Front

A statement that can be written in if-then form.

Back

same side exterior angles

Front

two exterior angles on the same side of the transversal

Back

Segment addition postulate

Front

If B is between A and C, then AB + BC = AC

Back

Substitution property

Front

If a=b, then a can be substituted for b in any equation or expression

Back

Midpoint

Front

A point that divides a segment into two congruent segments

Back

Line segment

Front

A part of a line with two endpoints

Back

altitude of a triangle

Front

the perpendicular segment from a vertex to the opposite side or to the line that contains the opposite side

Back

converse of a conditional statement

Front

When the hypothesis and conclusion are switched. The converse of p ➝ q is q ➝ p. A statement formed by interchanging the hypothesis and the conclusion in a conditional statement.

Back

Complementary angles

Front

Two angles whose sum is 90 degrees

Back

slope intercept form of a line

Front

y=mx + b (m is the slope, b is the y intercept point)

Back

Segment bisector

Front

a segment, ray, line, or plane that intersects a segment at its midpoint

Back

y-intercept

Front

The point where the graph crosses the y-axis

Back

Right triangle

Front

a triangle with one right angle

Back

Vertical Angles

Front

A pair of opposite congruent angles formed by intersecting lines

Back

deductive reasoning

Front

reasoning in which a conclusion is reached by stating a general principle and then applying that principle to a specific case (The sun rises every morning; therefore, the sun will rise on Tuesday morning.)

Back

Angle bisector

Front

a ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles

Back

Base angles

Front

Two angles that have the base as a side.

Back

Collinear

Front

Points that lie on the same line

Back

slope formula

Front

y2-y1/x2-x1

Back

Congruent

Front

Having the same size and shape

Back

Acute triangle

Front

A triangle that contains only angles that are less than 90 degrees.

Back

hypothesis

Front

A testable prediction, often implied by a theory An educated guess

Back

Line

Front

1. A long thin mark on a surface. 2. A continuous extent of length, straight or curved, without breadth or thickness; the trace of a moving point. 3. Long, narrow mark or band.

Back

Scalene triangle

Front

a triangle with no congruent sides

Back

Point slope equation of a line

Front

y-y1=m(x-x1)

Back

corresponding angles

Front

Angles formed by a transversal cutting through 2 or more lines that are in the same relative position.

Back

alternate exterior angles

Front

Angles that lie outside a pair of lines and on opposite sides of a transversal.

Back

Equilateral triangle

Front

A triangle with three congruent sides

Back

alternate interior angles

Front

angles between 2 lines and on opposite sides of a transversal

Back

inductive reasoning

Front

A type of logic in which generalizations are based on a large number of specific observations. Emphasis on experimentation and scientific method

Back

Transitive property

Front

If a=b and b=c, then a=c

Back

perpendicular bisector of a triangle

Front

A line that is perpendicular to a segment at its midpoint.

Back

same side interior angles

Front

two interior angles on the same side of the transversal

Obtuse triangle

Front

A triangle with one angle that is greater than 90 degrees.

Back

Linear Pair

Front

A pair of adjacent angles whose noncommon sides are opposite rays.
