Geometry

Chapter 7

QuestionAnswer
Area Of A Rectangle the product of its base and height A=bh
Area Of A Parallelogram the product of a base and the corresponding height A=bh
Base Of A Parallelogram any of its sides
Corresponding Altitude a segment perpendicular to the line containing that base drawn from the side opposite the base
Height (Parallelogram) the length of an altitude
A Diagonal divides any parallelogram into two congruent triangles
Theorem 7-3 the area of a triangle is half the product of a base and the corresponding height A=1/2bh
Base Of A Triangle any of its sides
Corresponding Height (Triangle) the length of the altitude to the line containing that base
Theorem 7-4 in a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse a2+b2=c2
Pythagorean Triple a set of nonzero whole numbers a,b, and c that satisfy the equation a2+b2=c2
Note About The Pythagorean Triple if you multiply each number in a Pythagorean triple by the same whole number, the three numbers that result also form a Pythagorean triple
Theorem 7-5 (Converse Of The Pythagorean Theorem) if the square of the length of one side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides, the triangle is obtuse, if c2<a2+b2, the triangle is acute
Theorem 7-6 if the square of the length of the longest side of a triangle is greater than the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides, the triangle is obtuse, if c2>a2+b2, the triangle is obtuse
Theorem 7-7 if the square of the length of the longest side of a triangle is less than the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides,the triangle is acute, if c2<a2+b2, the triangle is acute
Bases Of A Trapezoid the parallel sides
Legs Of A Trapezoid the nonparallel sides
Height Of A Trapezoid the perpendicular distance h between the bases
Theorem 7-10 (Area Of A Trapezoid) the area of a trapezoid is half the product of the height and the sum of the bases
What do rhombuses and kites have in common? both have perpendicular diagonals
Theorem 7-11 (Area Of A Rhombus Or A Kite) the area of a rhombus or a kite is half the product of the lengths of its diagonals A=1/2d1d2
Theorem 7-12 (Area Of A Regular Polygon) the area of a regular polygon is half the product of the apothem and the perimeter
Center Of A Regular Polygon the center of the circumscribed circle
Radius the distance from the center to a vertex
Apothem the perpendicular distance from the center to a side, the apothem bisects the vertex angle of the isosceles triangle formed by the radii

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
