Reasoning and Proofs

Vocab, Chapter 2, Honors Geometry 1

TermDefinition
Conditional Statement A statement written in if-then form (p=hypothesis, q=conclusion)
Bi-Conditional Statement The conjunction of the conditional and it's converse (p if and only if q)
Law of Detachment Given a conditional statement, if the hypothesis is true, then the conclusion is true
Law of Syllogism Allows you to draw a conclusion from 2 conditional statements in which the conclusion of the first statement is the hypothesis of the second statement
Addition Property If a=b, then a+c=b+c
Subtraction Property If a=b, then a-c=b-c
Multiplication property If a=b, then a(c)=b(c)
Division Property If a=b, then a/c=b/c
Substitution Proterty IF a=b then a may be replaced by b in an expression or equation
Reflexive Property For any real number a, a=a (A value will always equal itself)
Symmetric Property If a=b, then b=a
Transitive Property If a=b, and b=c, then a=c
Reflexive Property of Congruence For any segment AB, AB≃AB
Symmetric Property of congruence If AB≃CD, then CD≃AB
Transitive Property of Congruence If AB≃CD and CD≃EF, then AB≃EF
Definition of Congruence SEgments are congruent if and only if they have the same measure (AB≃CD, then AB=CD)
Definition of Midpoint If M is the midpoint of AB, then AM=MB
Segment Addition Postulate If A, B, and C are collinear points and B is between A and C, then AB+BC=AC
Definition of Congruence The measures of two angles are equal if and only if the angles are congruent
Definition of a Right Angle And angle measures 90 degrees if and only if it is a right angle
Definition of Complementary Angles Two angles are complementary if and only if the sum or their measures is 90 degrees
Definition of Supplementary Angles Two angles are supplementary if and only if the sum of their measures is 180 degrees
Definition of an Angle Bisector An angle bisector divides and angle into two equal parts
Definition of Perpendicular Perpendicular lines form right angles
Angle Addition Postulate The measures of two adjacent angles add up to the measure of the entire angle
Vertical Angles Theorem If two angles are vertical, then they are congruent
Complement Theorem If two angles form a right angle, then they are complementary
Linear Pair Theorem (Supplement Theorem) If two angles form a linear pair, then they are supplementary
Congruent Complements Theorem If two angles complementary to the same and, then they are congruent (If angle A is complementary to angle B, and angle C is complementary to angle B, then angle A≃angle C)
Congruent Supplements Theorem If two angles supplementary to the same angle, then they are congruent (if angle A is supplementary to angle B, and angle C is supplementary to angle B, then angle A≃angle C

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
