| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| adjacent sides of a triangle | Two sides of a triangle with a common vertex |
| corollary | A statement that can be proved easily using a theorem or a definition |
| corollary to the triangle sum theorem | The acute angles of a right triangle are complementary |
| exterior angles of a triangle | When the sides of a triangle are extended, the angles that are adjacent to the interior angles |
| exterior angle theorem | The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two nonadjacent interior angles |
| interior angles of a triangle | When the sides of a triangle are extended, the three original angles of a triangle |
| sides of an isosceles triangles | The two congruent sides of an isosceles triangle are called the legs and the third side is known as the base |
| sides of a right triangle | In a right triangle, the sides that form the right angle are called the legs and the side opposite the right angle is known as the hypotenuse |
| triangle | A figure formed by three segments joining three noncollinear points called vertices. |
| equilateral triangle | three congruent sides |
| isosceles triangle | at least two congruent sides |
| scalene triangle | no congruent sides |
| acute triangles | three acute angles |

| triangle sum theorem | the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees |
| vertex of a triangle | each of the three points joining the sides of a triangle |
| congruent figures | two geometric figures that have exactly the same size and shape. When two figures are congruent all pairs of corresponding angles and corresponding sides are congruent. |
| corresponding angles of congruent figures | when two figures are congruent, the angles that are in corresponding positions and are congruent |
| corresponding sides of congruent figures | when two figures are congruent the sides that are in corresponding positions and are congruent |
| reflexive property of congruent triangles | every triangle is congruent to itself |
| symmetric property of congruent triangles | if triangleABC is congruent to triangleDEF then triangleDEF is congruent to triangleABC |
| transitive property of congruent triangles | If triangleABC is congruent to triangleDEF and triangleDEF is congruent to triangleJKL then triangleABC is congruent to triangleJKL |
| third angles theorem | if two angles of one triangles are congruent to two angles of another triangle then the third angles are also congruent |
| SAS Congruence postulate | if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of a second triangle then the two triangles are congruent |
| SSS congruence postulate | if three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of a second triangle then the two triangles are congruent |
| AAS congruence theorem | if two angles and a nonincluded side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the corresponding nonincluded side of a second triangle then the two triangles are congruent |
| ASA congrunce postulate | if two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of a second triangle then the two triangles are congruent |
| base angles of an isoceles triangle | the two angles that contain the base of an isoceles |
| base angles theorem | if two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite them are congruent |
| corollary to base angles theorem | if a triangle is equilateral, then it is equilangular |
| corollary to the converse of the base angles theorem | if a triangle is equilangular, then it is equilateral |
| converse of the base angles theorem | if two angles of a triangle are congruent, then the sides opposite them are congruent |
| hypotenuse-leg congruence theorem | if the hypotenuse and the leg of a right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and a leg of a second right triangle, then the two triangles are congruent |
| vertex angle of an isoceles triangle | the angle opposite the base of an isoceles triangle |
| coordinate proof | a type of proof that involves placing geometric figures in a coordinate plane |
