Geometry Review

AB
Acute angleAn angle whose measure is less than 90
Obtuse angleAn angle whose measure is between 90 and 180
Midpoint((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)
Supplementary anglesTwo angles whose sum is 180
Complementary anglesTwo angles whose sum is 90
CollinearOn the same line
CoplanarOn the same plane
HypotenuseSide across from the right angle
Adjacent"next to"
Vertical anglesNon-adjacent, congruent angles formed by intersecting lines
Parallel linesLines in the same plane that never intersect
Perpendicular linesLines that intersect to form a right angle
Skew linesLines that are not in the same plane
Isosceles triangleA triangle with 2 congruent sides
EquilateralAll sides are congruent
EquiangularAll angles are congruent
Area of a rectangleA = bh
Area of a triangleA = 1/2 b h
PerimeterAdd the lengths of all the sides
Sum of the interior angles in a polygonS = (n - 2) 180
Sum of the exterior angles for any convex polygon360
Slope formula(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Percent of increasechange / original
For 3 lengths to form a triangle,the sum of the shorter sides must be greater than the longest side
To see if 3 lengths form a right triangle,test to see if a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Sin Aopp/hyp
Cos Aadj/hyp
Tan Aopp/adj
Congruent figuresSame shape and same size
Similar figuresSame shape but different size
ReflectionFlips it! (Mirror image)
TranslationMoves it!
RotationTurns it!
DilationEnlarges or reduces it!
Units used for perimeterLinear units (Ex: feet)
Units used for areaSquare units
Units used for volumeCubic units
Faces of a prismThe sides (flat surfaces)
Edges of a prismThe segments where the faces meet (the toothpicks)
Vertices of a prismWhere the edges meet (the gumdrops)
Corresponding anglesCongruent angles (L- shape)
Alternate interior anglesCongruent angles (Z-shape)
Sum of the angles in any triangle180
