---|---|---|---|---|---|
Alternate Exterior Angles | Congruent pairs of angles formed when a third line (a transversal) crosses two other lines. These angles are on opposite sides of the transversal and are outside the other two lines.
🗑
|
||||
Alternate Interior Angles | Congruent pairs of angles formed when a third line (a transversal) crosses two other lines. These angles are on opposite sides of the transversal and are in between the other two lines.
🗑
|

Angle of Rotation | The degree of rotation about a fixed point.
🗑
|
||||
Congruent Figures | Figures that have the same size and shape.
🗑
|
||||
Corresponding Sides | Sides that have the same relative positions in geometric figures.
🗑
|
||||
Corresponding Angles | Congruent angles that have the same relative positions in geometric figures.
🗑
|
||||
Dilation | Transformation that changes the size of a figure, but not the shape.
🗑
|
||||
Linear Pair | Adjacent, supplementary angles. Excluding their common side, they form a straight line.
🗑
|
||||
Reflection | A transformation that "flips" a figure.
🗑
|
||||
Rotation | A transformation that turns a figure about a fixed point through a given angle and a given direction.
🗑
|
||||
Same-Side Interior Angles | Supplementary pairs of angles formed when a third line (a transversal) crosses two other lines. These angles are on the same side of the transversal and are between the other two lines.
🗑

||||
Same-Side Exterior Angles | Supplementary pairs of angles formed when a third line (a transversal) crosses two other lines. These angles are on the same side of the transversal and are outside the other two lines.
🗑
|
||||
Scale Factor | The ratio of any two corresponding lengths of the sides of two similar figures.
🗑
|
||||
Similar Figures | Figures that have the same shape but not necessarily the same size.
🗑
|
||||
Transformation | The mapping, or movement, of all the points of a figure in a plane according to a common operation.
🗑
|
||||
Translation | A transformation that "slides" each point of a figure the same distance in the same direction.
🗑
|
||||
Transversal | A line that crosses two or more lines.
🗑
