Geometry C1
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Point | a location in space that is represented by a dot and has no dimension |
| line | one dimensional geometric figure that extends in two opposite directions without end |
| plane | a flat surface made up of points that has two dimensions and extends without end and is represented by a shape that looks like a floor or wall |
| endpoints | points that represented the ends of a line , segment and ray |
| ray | a geometric figure that consists of the endpoint A and all points on line AB that lie on the same side of points A and B |
| intersection | the set of points two or more geometric figures have in common |
| postulate\ axiom | a rule that is accepted without proof |
| midpoint | the point that divides a segment into two congruent segments |
| segment bisector | a point , ray , line , line segment or plane that intersects a segment at its midpoint |
| convex polygon | a polygon in which no line that contains a side of the polygon the interior of the polygon |
| concave polygon | a polygon in which at least one line that contains a point in the interior of the polygon |
| polygon | a closed plane figure formed by three or move line segments |
| acute angle | an angle that has a measure greater that 0 and less that 90 |
| obtuse angle | an angle that has a measure greater than 90 and less than 180 |
| right angle | an angle that has a measure of 90 |
| straight angle | an angle that has a measure of 180 |
| angle bisector | a ray that divides an angle into two angles that are congruent |
| complementary angles | two angles whose measures have a sum of 90 |
| supplementery angles | two angles whose measure have a sum of 180 |
| adjacent angles | two angles that share a common vertex and side but have no common interior points |
| vertical angles | two angles whose sides from two pairs of opposite rays |
| undefined terms | words that do not have a formal definitions but there is agreement about what they mean (point , line ,plane ) |
| collinear points | points that lie on the same line |
| coplanar points | points that lie on the same plane |
| defined terms | terms that can be described using known words such as point or line |
| segment | consists of two endpoints and all points between them. |
| opposite rays | rays that start at the same point but go away from each other creating a straight line |
| coordinate | a real number that corresponds to a point on a line |
| distance | the absolute value of the difference of two coordinates on a line |
| construction | a geometric drawing that uses a limited set of tools usually a compass and straightedge |
| congruent segments | line segments that have been the same length |
| between | when three points are collinear , one point is between the other two |
| vertex of an angle | the common end points of two rays |
| angle | a set of two points consisting of two different rays that have the same endpoint |
| side of an angle | the rays of an angle |
| interior of in angle | the religion that contains call the points between the sides of the angle |
| exterior of an angle | angles that form linear pairs with the interior angles of a polygon |
| measure of an angle | the absolute value of the difference between the real numbers matched withe the two rays that form the angle on the protractor |
| linear pair | two adjacent angles whose no common sides are opposite rays |
