Question | Answer |
---|---|
Acute angle | Angle between 0 degrees and 90 degrees. |
Angle | Two rays connected at their endpoints. The point where the connect is called a vertex. |
Angle bisector | Cuts an angle into 2 congruent angles. |
Collinear points | Points that lie on the same line. |
Congruent angles | Angles that have the same measure. |
Congruent segments | Two segments with the same length. |
Conjecture | A conclusion reached through inductive reasoning. |
Coordinate | Corresponds to a point on a number line. |
Coplanar | Points and lines in the same plane. |
Counter-Example | Enough to disprove a conjecture. |
Inductive Reasoning | Reasoning based on observed patterns. |
Line | Has no length, no width, or thickness. It extends without end in two directions. |
Midpoint | A point that divides a segment into two congruent segments. It bisects the segment. |
Obtuse Angle | Angle higher than 90 degrees. |
Opposite rays | Start at the same point... and go in opposite directions. |
Parallel lines | Coplanar lines that do not intersect. |
Perpendicular lines | Intersect to form right angles. |
Plane | A flat surface that has no thickness. It extends without end in all directions. |
Point | Has no length, width, or thickness, but has a position. |
Postulate | A statement accepted to be true without proof. |
Ray | Part of a line that consists of an initial point and all points on the line that lie on side of the initial point. |
Right Angle | Angle thats exactly 90 degrees |
Segment | A portion of a line between two points, called endpoints. |
Skew lines | Noncoplanar lines. Therefore, they are not parallel and do not intersect. |
Space | The boundless 3-dimensional set of all points. |
