| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| a physical location in space that has no length, width, or depth. | A Point |
| a set of connected points that extend forever in two directions | A Line |
| a portion of a line that has a starting point and then extends forever in one direction. | A Ray |
| When three points all lie on the same line, they are called ----? | Collinear |
| a portion of a line that has both a starting and ending point | A Segment |
| two rays that share the same starting point, called the vertex | An angle |
| an angle that has a measure less than 90 degrees is called----- | an acute angle |
| an angle that has a measure between 90 & 180 degrees is called--- | an obtuse angle |
| an angle that has a measures exactly 90 degrees is called------ | a right angle |
| an angle that has a measure of exactly 180 degrees is called---- | a straight angle |
| two non-overlapping angels that share a ray are called----- | adjacent angles |
| pairs of angles that share a vertex point and have rays that point in opposite directions are called----- | vertical angles |
| two angles that have a sum of 90 degrees | complementary angles |
| two angles that have a sum of 180 degrees | supplementary angles |
| two lines, segments, or rays that form right angles with one another. | Perpendicular |
| when a geometric object is cut into two of the same types of objects that have the same measure, it is called ---- | A bisector, angle bisector or segment bisector |
| same size and same shaped figures | congruent figures |
| same shape, different size, side lengths are porportional | similar figures |
| Congruent Angles located in the same relative position on the two parallel lines are known as ------------------ | corresponding angles |
| Congruent Angles located outside the parallel lines, & alternate side of the transversal are called----------- | alternate exterior angles |
| Congruent Angles located inside the parallel lines, & alternate side of the transversal are called----------- | alternate interior angles |
| two or more lines that are equidistant and will never intersect | Parallel lines |
