| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Part of a line with one endpoint | Ray |
| Two rays with the same endpointthat open in exact opposite directions | Opposite Rays |
| On the same line | Colinear |
| On the same plane | Coplanar |
| A rule that is always true without the need for explanation | Postulate/Axiom |
| A rule that is true but needs proof | Theorum |
| Finding the distance between two points using coordinates from a number line | Ruler Postulate |
| Segments that are the same length | Congruent Segments |
| Little +Little = Big | Segment Addition Postulate |
| Angles that have the same measure | Congruent Angles |
| Two or more parts can be added together to get the measure of the larger angle | Angle Addition Postulate |
| Two angle that share the vertex and a common side | Adjacent Angles |
| Two angles whose sum is 90 degrees | Complementry Angles |
| Two angles whose sum is 180 degrees | Supplementry Angles |
| Two angles that are ajacent and supplementry (make a straight line) | Linear Pairs |
| Two angles that share a vertex and are made by opposite | Vertical Angles |
| All right angles are congruent | Right Angles Congruence Theorem |
| If two angles are supplementary to the same angle (or congruent angles) then the two angles are are congruent | Congruent Supplements Theorum |
| If angle 4 and angle 5 are compliments than the measure of angle 4 + the measure of angle 5 = 90 degrees | Congruent Compliments Theorum |
| If two angles are a linear pair, than the two angles are supplementry (add up to 180 degrees) | Linear Pair Postulate |
| Vertical angles are congruent (equal measure) | Vertical Angles Congruence Theorum |
| Lines not on the same plane (never intersect) | Skew Lines |
| With a line and a point not on the line, there exsits exactly one line paralell through that point | Parellel Postulate |
| With a line and a point not on the line, there exsists exactly one line perpendicular through that point | Perpendicular Postulate |
| A line that intersects two or more lines | Transversals |
| Pairs of angles that share the same location and different intersection | Corresponding Angles |
| Pairs of interior angles on opposite sides of the transversal | Alternate Interior Angles |
| Pair of exterior angles on opposite sides of the transversal | Alternate Exterior Angles |
| Pairs of interior angles on the same side of a transversal | Consecutive Interior Angles |
| If parralell lines are both intersected by a transversal then corresponding angles are congruent | Corresponding Angles Theorum |
| If parralell lines are both intersected by a transversal than alternate interior angles are congruent | Alternate Interior Angles Theorum |
| If parralell lines are both intersected by a transversal than alternate exterior angles are congruent | Alternate Exterior Angles Theorum |
| If parralell lines are both intersected by a transversal than interior angles are supplementry (add to 180) | Consecutive Interior Angles Theorum |
| If two lines are both parrallel to the same line, then they are parallel to eachother. | Transitive Property of Parralell Lines |
