Question | Answer |
---|---|
Equidisant | Objects the same distance from each other. |
Point | A location in space that has no dimension |
A Line | Infinite set of points that extend in opposite directions. A line has one dimension (length). |
A Plane | An infinite set of points that creates a flat surface that is without end. A plane has two dimensions (length and width) |
Space | The set of all points. |
Collinear | Points on the same line. |
Noncollinear | Points not on the same line. |
Coplanar | Points on the same plane. |
Noncoplanar | Points not in the same plane. |
Intersection | The place where geometric figures cross each other. |
Segment | Named by giving its endpoints. |
Ray | Named by giving its endpoint and another point on the line with one arrow. |
Lenth | The distance between two points. |
Congruent | Two objects that have the same size and shape. |
Midpoint of a segment | A point that divides a segment into two congruent segments. |
Bisector of a segment | A segment bisector is a line, segment, ray, or plane that intersects a segment at its midpoint. |
Angle | A figure formed by two rays with the same endpoint |
Measure of an angle | A protractor, or computing the absolute value of the difference of these numbers can be used to find the ... |
Acute | 0 < m |
Obtuse | 90 < m |
Right | m |
Straight | m |
Congruent angles | Two angles with equal measures. |
Bisector of an angle | The ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles. |
Adjacent angles | Coplanar angles with a common vertex nand a common side but no common interior points. |
Postulate | A basic assumption accepted without proof. |
Theorem | A statement that can be proved using postulates, definitions, and previously proved theorems. |
Exists | There is at least one. |
Unique | Exactly one. |
Determine | To define or specify. |
