Term
Line
Definition

 line has only one dimension: length. It continues forever in two directions 

[image]

Term
Segment
Definition

portion of a line lying strictly between two points.

Definition

- two rays with a common endpoint that form a straight line

[image] 

Term
Collinear
Definition

three or more points that lie in a straight line.

Definition

objects are those lying in the same plane

[image]

Term
Angle
Definition

figure formed by two rays

[image]

Term
Midpoint
Definition

The point on a line segment dividing it into two segments of equal length

[image]

Term
Bisector
Definition

 ray that cuts the angle exactly in half, making two equal angles

[image]

Term
Congruent
Definition

all corresponding lengths are the same

[image]

Term
Vertex
Definition

point where two sides of a polygon meet.

[image]

Term
Acute Angles
Definition

an angle less than 90 degrees 

[image]

Term
Obtuse Angles
Definition

an angle between 90 and 180 degrees.

[image]

Term
Right Angle
Definition

An angle of 90°, as in a corner of a square.

[image]

Term
Straight Angle
Definition

An angle of 180°.


[image]
Term
Complementary Angles
Definition

Either of two angles whose sum


is 90°.


[image]
Term
Supplementary Angles
Definition

Either of two angles whose sum


is 180°.


[image]
Term
Vertical Angles
Definition

opposite angles made by two intersecting lines.

[image]

Term
Adjacent Angles
Definition

Two angles are Adjacent if they have a common side and a common vertex (corner point) and

don't overlap.

[image]

Term
Linear Pair
Definition

 two supplementary adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines.

[image]

Term
Perpendiculour lines
Definition

Two segments, rays, or lines are perpendicular if and only if the lines containing them form a 90 degree angle.

[image]

Term
Polygon
Definition

A polygon is a two-dimensional geometric figure :

made of straight line segments.

 

Each segment touches exactly two other segments, one at each of its endpoints.

 

It is closed -- it divides the plane into two distinct regions, one inside and the other outside the polygon.

Term
Concave/Convex
Definition

Convex: 

  • very internal angle is less than or equal to 180 degrees.
  • Every line segment between two vertices remains inside or on the boundary of the polygon.
Cocave: always have an interior angle with a measure that is greater than 180 degrees.
