Congruency of Triangles | If 2 triangles are congruent, than all pairs of corespoding parts are congruent. If all pairs of corresponding parts of 2 triangles are congruent than the triangles are congruent. |
To show a segment/angle is = to itslef | Any segment or angle is congreunt to itself (Reflextive) |
SSS | If there exists a correspomdance between the vertesies of 2 congruent triangles such that 3 sides of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides of the other triangle then the two triangles are congruent. |
SAS | If there exisits a corespondance between the vertesies of 2 triangles such that two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congreunt to the corresponding parts of the other triangle, than the triangles are congruent. |
ASA | If there exists a correspondance between the vertisises of 2 triangles such that two angles and the included sides of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of the other triangle, than the triangles are congruent. |
CPCTC | Corresponding parts of Congruent angles are congruent. |
Circles | A circle is the set of all points that are a fixed distance froma given center point. |
Radii of a Circle | All radii of a circle are congruent. |
Median implies congruent segments or Median. Median implies midpoint | If a segment drawn from any vertex of a triangle to the opposite side is a median (Than it divides the opposite side into 2 congruent segments) (Than the point of intersection is the midpoint of the opp side. |
Median | If a segment is drawn from any vertex of a triangle to the opposite side divides that side into 2 congruent segs than it is a median. |
Median | If a segment is drawn from any vertex of a triangle to the midpoint of the opp. side, than it is a median. |
Altitude | If a Segment drawn from any vertex of a triangle to the opposite side is an altitude, than it is perpendicular to the opposite side. (Att implies perpendicularity) (Att implies right angles) I |
Alltitude inverse | If a segment is drawn from any vertes of a triangle to the opposite side extended if necessary, than it is an altitude. |
Reason when drawing a line | two points determine a line. |
Scalene | A triangle with no sides congruent |
Isosceles | Atriangle with at leat two sides congruent The congreunt sides are called the legs and the third is called the base. The angle opposite the congruents are the base angle. |
Equillateral | A triangle with all sides congruent |
Equilangular | A triangle with all angles congruent |
Acute | A triangle with all acute angles |
Right | A triangle wiht one right triangle. |
Hypoteneuse | The side opposite the right angle is called this. |
Legs | the sides adjacent to the right angle are called this. |
Obtuse | A triangle with one obtuse angle. |
Angle Side therome | If two sides of a triangle are congreunt than the angles opposite the sides are congreunt. If angles of a triangle are congrurent than the sides opposite the angles are congruent. |
Inverse sidel angle | If two sides of a triangle are not congruent then the angles opposite them are not congruent and the larger angle is opposite the larger side. |
Inverse side angle | If two angles of a triangle are not congruent then the sides opposite them are not congruent and the larger side os opposite the larger angle. |
HL | If there exists a corespondance between 2 right angle such that the hypoteneuse and a leg of one triangle are congruent to the cprresponding parts of the other triangle , than the right triangles are congruent. |
