QuestionAnswer
Point A location represented as a small dot, named by a capital letter.
Space Space is defined as the set of all points
Line A series of points that extends in two opposite directions without end.
Collinear points Points that lie on the same line
Plane A flat surface that has no thickness and extends in all directions without end.
Coplanar Points and lines in the same plane.
Postulate/Axiom An accepted statement or fact.
Through any two points there is exactly ___line. one
Postulate If two lines intersect, then they intersect in exactly one ____. point
Postulate If two planes intersect, then they intersect in exactly one ___ line
Postulate Through any three noncollinear points there is exactly one ___ plane
Segment The part of a line consisting of two endpoints and all points between them.
Ray The part of a line consisting of one endpoint and all the points on one side of the endpoint.
Opposite Rays Two collinear rays with the same endpoint; opposite rays always form a line.
Parallel Lines Coplanar lines that do not intersect.
Skew Lines Skew lines are noncoplanar; therefore, they are not parallel and do not intersect.
Parallel Planes Planes that do not intersect, and are not skew.
Ruler Postulate every point has a name.
Congruent Segments Two segments with the same length are congruent (≡) segments.
Segment Addition Potulate part + part = whole
Midpoint A point that divides a segment in two congruent segments.
Angle Two rays with the same endpoint (vertex).
Protractor Postulate (Postulate 1.7) Any angle can have only ___ measure at a time one
Acute Angle 0 < X < 90
Right Angle X = 90
Obtuse Angle 90 < X < 180
Straight Angle X = 180
Angle Addition Postulate part + part = whole
Perpendicular Lines Two lines that intersect to form right angles.
Perpendicular Bisector A line, segment, or ray that is perpendicular to the segment at its midpoint,
Angle Bisector A ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles. Its endpoint is at the vertex.
The Pythagorean Thm is used in the ___ The Distance Formula
The Midpoint Formula (average x, average y)
Bisectors always make twins
Perpendicular means at a right angle
If a two lines do not intersect, then they must be ___ or ___ to each other skew or parallel
You can name a line by using any ___ 2 points on the line
When naming an angle, the ____ must be in the middle vertex
Numbers can be ____ but figures can be ____ equal , congruent
A compass is used to copy ____ distance

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.
