| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Acute angle? | Angle less than 90 degres |
| Angle? | formed by two rays connected by the same endpoint. |
| Angle bisector | a ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles. |
| collinear points | lie on the same line |
| congruent angles | angles that have the same measures |
| congruent segments | segments with the same length |
| conjecture | a conclusion reached by using inductive reasoning |
| coordinate | a specific point on a number line or a plane |
| coplanar | points and lines in the same plans |
| counterexample | something that disproves a conjecture |
| inductive reasoning | something that is reached through examples and the process of elimination |
| line | has no length,width,or thickness. it extends without ending in two directions |
| midpoint | a point that divides a segment into two congruent segments |
| obtuse angle | angle more than 90 degrees and less than 180 degress |
| opposite rays | start at the same point but go in opposite directions |
| parrelel lines | coplanar lines across from each other but will never meet |
| perpendicular lines | lines that intersect to form roght angles |
| plane | flat surface that has no thickness. it extends without end in all directions |
| point | no length,width,or thickness, but has a position |
| postulate | an accepted staement of fact |
| ray | part of a line that consists of an initial points and all points on the line that lie on one side of the initial point. |
| right angle | 90 degree angle |
| segment | the part of a line consisting of two points |
| skew lines | noncoplanar lines that never intersect and are not parallel |
| space | the set of all points |
