Term | Definition |
---|---|
Parallel Lines | Two lines that do not intersect and are coplanar. |
Skew Lines | Lines that do not intersect and are not coplanar. |
Parallel Planes | Two planes that do not intersect. |
Transversal | A line that intersects two or more coplanar lines at different points. |
Corresponding Angles | Two angles that are formed by two lines and a transversal and occupy corresponding positions. |
Alternate Interior Angles | Two angles that are formed by two lines and a transversal and lie between the two lines and on opposite sides of the transversal. |
Alternate Exterior Angles | Two angles that are formed by two lines and a transversal and lie outside the two lines and on opposite side of the transversal. |
Consecutive Interior Angles | Two angles that are formed by two lines and a transversal and lie between the two lines and on the same side of the transversal. Also called same-side interior angles. |
Paragraph Proof | A type of proof written in paragraph form. |
Slope | y2-y1 over x2-x1/ rise over run |
Slope-Intercept Form | A linear equation written in the form y=mx +b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the equation's graph |
Standard Form | A linear equation written in the form Ax + By= C, Where A,B, and C are real numbers and A and B are not both zero. |
Distance From A Point To A Line | The length of the perpendicular segment from the point to the line. |
