Question
Answer
adjacent angles   two angles that lie in the same plane, have a common vertex and a common side, but no common interior points  
🗑
angle   the intersection of two noncollinear points at a common endpoint. The rays are called sides and and the common endpoint is called the vertex.  
🗑
area   The number of square units needed to cover a surface  
🗑
between   for any two points, /A/ and /B/ on a line, there is another point /C/ between /A/ and /B/ if and only if /A/, /B/, and /C/ are collinear and /A/C/ + /C/B/ = /A/B/  
🗑
betweeness of points   for any two points, /A/ and /B/ on a line, there is another point /C/ between /A/ and /B/ if and only if /A/, /B/, and /C/ are collinear and /A/C/ + /C/B/ = /A/B/  
🗑
circumference   the distance around a circle  
🗑
collinear   points that lie on the same line  
🗑
complementary angles   two angles with measures that have a sum of 90  
🗑
concave polygon   A polygon for which there is a line containing a side of the polygon that also contains a point in the interior of the polygon  
🗑
cone   A solid with a circular base, a vertex not contained in the same plane as the base, and a lateral surface area composed of all points in the segments connecting the vertex to the edge of the base  
🗑
congruent   having the same measure  
🗑
construction   A method of creating geometric figures without the benefit of measuring tools. Generally, only a pencil, straightedge, and compass are used.  
🗑
convex polygon   A polygon for which there is no line that contains both a side of the polygon and a point in the interior of the polygon  
🗑
coplanar   points that lie in the same plane  
🗑
cylinder   A figure with bases that are formed by congruent circles in parallel planes  
🗑
angle bisector   a ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles  
🗑
bases   the two parallel congruent faces of a polyhedron  
🗑
degree   a unit of measure used in measuring angles and arcs. An arc of a circle with a measure of 1 degree is 1/360 of the entire circle  
🗑
edges   The line segments where the faces intersect  
🗑
face   each flat surface of a polyhedron  
🗑
line   A basic undefined term of geometry. A line is made up of points and has no thickness or width. In a figure, a line is shown with an arrowhead at each end.  
🗑
linear pair   A pair of adjacent angles whose non-common sides are opposite rays.  
🗑
line segment   A measurable part of a line that consists of two points, called endpoints, and all of the points between them.  
🗑
midpoint   The point on a segment exactly halfway between the endpoints of the segment.  
🗑
plane   A basic undefined term of geometry. A plane is a flat surface made up of points that has no depth and extends indefinitely in all directions. In a figure, a plane is often represented by a shaded, slanted four-sided figure.  
🗑
point   A basic undefined term of geometry. A point is a location. In a figure, points are represented by a dot. Points are named by capital letters.  
🗑
polygon   A closed figure formed by a finite # of coplanar segments called sides such that the following conditions are met: The sides that have a common endpoint are collinear; Each side intersects exactly 2 other sides, but only at their endpoints (vertices).  
🗑
   
🗑
segment bisector   A segment, line, or plane that intersects a segment at its midpoint  
🗑
space   A boundless three-dimensional set of all points  
🗑
sphere   In space, the set of all points that are a given distance from a given point, called the center.  
🗑
undefined term   Words, usually readily understood, that are not formally explained by means of more basic words and concepts. The basic undefined terms of geometry are point, line, and plane.  
🗑
vertical angles   Two nonadjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines  
🗑
