| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Linear Pair | 2 angles that make a line, share a side. Also supplementary- equal 180 |
| Equilateral | Are sides are congruent. |
| Equiangular | All interior angles are congruent. |
| Biconditional | Both the conditional and its converse are true. -contains phrase "if and only if" |
| Collinear | 2 points on the same line. |
| Coplanar | 2 lines or 3 points on the same plain. |
| Skew Lines | 2 lines that do not intersect, not coplanar . |
| Transversal | A line intersects two or more lines. |
| Alternate exterior | Opposite sides of the transversal. |
| Consecutive interior | Same side of transversal |
| Circumcenters | Are equidistanct from the 3 vertices. |
| Centroids | Cut the medians into 1/3 and 2/3 length segments, and connect angles and midpoints. |
| Incenters | Are equal distant away from each side by drawing a perpendicular line. |
| Orthocenters | Can finish inside, on, or outside of the triangle and go from a vertex to a point perpendicular on the opposite side. |
| Midsegments | Lines connecting two midpoints, are parallel with the side they do not touch, and are half that sides length. |
| Perimeter | Distance around an object. |
| Circumference | Perimeter of a circle. |
| Area | Amount of space an object occupies. |
| Proof | Logical argument showing the statement is true. |
| Regular Polygon | Convex polygon that is both. |
| Bisector | Divides the angle in half. |
| Congruent | 2 segments have the same length/measures. |
| Point | Has no dimention. |
| Line | One dimension extends without end. |
| Plane | 2-D represented by a shape has no end, three points. |
| Segment | Has two endpoints. |
| Ray | Consists endpoint. |
| Intersection | Set of points have in common. |
| Isometric Drawing | A 3-D drawing of an object. |
| Inequality Theorem | The sum of the lengths of any 2 sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the 3rd side. |
