Geometry Definitions- Midterm Review

AB
Perpendicular2 lines, rays, or segments that meat at a common point and form a right angle.
Oblique2 rays, lines, or segments that meat at a common point but are nut perpendicular.
ComplementaryWhen the measures of two angle add up to 90
SupplementaryWhen the measures of two angles add up to 180
BisectorA ray that divides an angle into two congruant angles
TrisectorA ray that divides an angle into 3 congruant angles
Reflexive Prop.A=A
Transitive Prop.A=B B=C A=C
Symmetry Prop.A=B B=A
Congruent Triangles, Polygons<=> all pairs of corresponding parts are congruent
Any sgment or angle is congruent to itself.Reflexive Property
SSS PostulateIf there exists a correspondance between the vertices of two triangles such that three sides of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides of the other triangle, the two triangles are congruent.
SAS PostulateIf there exists a correspondance between the vertices of two triangles such that two sides and the icluded angle of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of the other triangle, the two triangles are congruent.
ASA PostulateIf there exists a correspondance between the vertices of two triangles such that two angles and the icluded side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of the other triangle, the two triangles are congruent.
CPCTC"Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent."
Isosceles TriangleAt least two are congruent
Scalene TriangleNo two sides are congruent
Equalateral Triangle All sides are congruent
Equiangular TriangleAll angles are congruent
Acute TriangleAll angles are acute
Right TriangleOne angle is right
Obtuse TriangleOne of the angles is obtuse
Legs of a right triangleSides that form the right angle
HypotenuseThe side opposite the right angle
Vertex angleThe angle opposite the base
base anglesAngle formed by the base and the adjacent side
baseSide that is congruent to neither of the other sides
legs of an isosceles triangleOne of the two congruent sides of an isosceles triangle
