AB
The Ruler Postulateone to one correspondence between points of a line and set of real numbers such that the distance between two distinct points of the line is the absolute value of the difference of their coordinates
Midpoint Theorem2AM=AB & 2AMB=AB
The Protractor Postulatehalf-plane with edge ray AB and any point S between A and B there exists a one-to-one correspondence between the rays that originate at S in yhr half-plane and the real numbers between 0 and 180
Angle Bisector theorem2m angleAOX=m angel AOB, 2m angle XOB= m angle AOB
Linear Pair PostulateIf two angles form a linear pair then they are supplementary angles
SSS postulatethree sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another trinagl, then the two triangles are congruent
SAS postulateIf two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent
ASA postulatetwo angles and the included side of one trinangle are congruent to two angles and the inclded sid of anouther trinangle, then the two triangles are congruent
AAS postulateIf two angles and the nonincluded side one triangle are congruent, to the corresponding angels and nonincluded side of another triangle, tneb the two triangles are congruent
LA TheoremIf a leg and an acute angle of one right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent
HA TheoremIf the hypotenuse and an acute angle of one right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent
LL TheoremIf the two legs of one right triangle are congruent to the two legs of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent
HL TheoremIf the hypotenuse and a leg of one right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of anouth right triangle, then the triangles are congruent
Isosceles triangle TheoremIf two sides of a triangle are congruent athen the angles opposite those sides are congruent
The Exterior Angle ThoeoremThe measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is greater than the measure of either remote interior angle
The Triangle Inequalitythe sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side
Hinge TheoremIf two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of a second triangle, and the included angle of the first is larger than the inclued angle of the second, then the third side of the second triangle
Converse of the Hinge TheoremIf two sides of one triangle are congruent to towo seides of a second triangle and the third side of the first is longer thatn the third side of the second then the included angle of the first triangle is larger than the included angle of the second triangle
The Midsegment TheoremThe segment that joins the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side, and its length is half the length of the third side
SASAS theoremtwo quadrilaterals are congruent if any three sides and the included angles of one are congruent to the corresponding three sieds and the included angles of the other
ASASA TheoremTwo quadrilaterals are congruent if any three angles and the incluede sides of th one are congruent to the three corresponding angles and the inclued angles of the other
AA PostulateIf two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of a second triangle are similar
SAS TheoremIf an angle of one triangle is congruent to an angle of another triangle, and the length of the sides including those angles are inproportion then the triangles are similar
SSS theoremIf the corresponding sides of two triangles are inproportion, then the triangles are similar
Triangle Proportionality TheoremIf a line parallel to one side of the triangle intersects the other two sides, then it divides those sides proportionally
Triangle Angle-Bisector TheoremIf a ray bisects an angle of a triangle, then it divides the opposite side into segments proportional to the onter two sides of the triangle
Pythagorean TheoremIn a right triangle the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the legths of the legs
Converse of Pythagorean TheoremIf the sum the square of the lengths of two sides of a triangle is equal to the square of the length of the third side, them the triqngle is a right triangle
45-45-90 degrees TheoremIn a 45-45-90 degrees triangle, the length of the hypotenuse is the square root of 2 times the lenght of a leg
30-60-90 degrees TheoremIn a 30-60-90 degrees triangle, the length of the hypotenuse is twice the length of the shorter leg and the lenght of the longer leg is the square root of 3 times the length of the shorter leg
Area PostulateEvery polygonal region corresponds to a unique positive mumber, called the area of the region
Area Congruence PostulateIf two polygons are congruent then the polygonal regions determined bh them have the same area
Area Addition PostulateIf a region can be subdivided into nonoverlapping parts the are of the region is the sum of the areas of those nonoverlappingparts
area squareA=s squared

area rhombusA=1/2 d1 d2
area of equilateral trinagleA=s squared, square root of 3 divided by 4
area trapezoidA=h/2(b1+ b2)
area regular polygonA=1/2aP
circumference of circleC=pi d, C=2 pi r
ratio of the length of an arc to the circumferencel/C=m/360, or l=m/360(2 pi r)
