|---|---|
| Point | A physical location in space that has no dimension |
| Distance | The length of a Straight line segment |
| Line | An infinite set of points that extends forever in two directions |
| Ray | An infinite set collection of points that exstends forever iin one direction. |
| Angle | The Geometric object created by to rays with a common starting point. |
| The measure of an angle | what the degree is. |
| Acute angle | somewhere between 0 and 90 degrees. |
| Obtuse Angle | Has a Measure between 90 and 180 |
| right angle | an angle that measures 90 |
| straight angle | an angle that measures 180 |
| Reflex Angle | an angle that measures between 180 and 360 |
| Complementary angles | two angles that add to 90 |
| Supplementary Angles | two angles that add to 180 |
| collinear | Three or more points that ly on the same line |
| Axiom | A fact thats true without proof. |
| Line Segment | A line with a start and an end. |
| Vertical angles | opposite angles when lines intersect and theyre equal always |
| Circle | a round plane figure whose boundary consists of points equidistant from a fixed point |
| Radius | a straight line from the center to the circumference of a circle or sphere. |
| Euilateral Triangle | equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides have the same length. In the familiar Euclidean geometry |
| Congruent | equal to |
| SSS | triangle congruence theorm where all sides are congruent. |
| Isosceles Triangle | A triangle that has 2 equal sides. |
| Midpoint | center point of a line segment. |

| Reflection | moving across an axis without changing size or shape. |
| Translation | moving on a plane without chaging size or shape. |
| Dialtion | changing size of a shape. |
| Parrallel lines | lines that dont intersect |
| Transversal | an intersecting of a systme of lines |
| Alternate interior Angles | always congruent, on opposite sides of parrollel lines. |
| Corresponding Angles | When two lines are crossed by another line the angles in matching corners are called corresponding angles. |

| Geomitry transformation | A transformation is a process which changes the position of a shape |
| Regular Polygon | In Euclidean geometry, a regular polygon is a polygon that is equiangular |
| Kite | In Euclidean geometry, a kite is a quadrilateral whose four sides can be grouped into two pairs of equal-length sides that are adjacent to each other |
| Adjacent | next to or adjoining something else. |
