Term
Line Intersection Theorem
Definition
Two different lines intersect in at most one point
Term
Linear Pair Theorem
Definition
If two angles form a linear pair, then they are supplementary
Term
Vertical Angles Theorem
Definition
If two angles are vertical angles, then they have equal measure
Term
Parallel Lines and Slopes Theorem
Definition
Two nonvertical lines are parallel if and only if they have the same slope
Term
Transitivity of Parallelism Theorem
Definition
In a plane, if l // m and m // n, then l // n.
Term
Two Perpendicular Theorem
Definition
If two coplanar lines l and m are each perpendicular to the same line, then they are parallel to each other.
Term
Perpendicular to Parallels Theorem
Definition
In a plane, if a line is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, then it is also perpendicular to the other
Term
Perpendicular Lines and Slopes Theorem
Definition
Two nonvertical lines are perpendicular if and only if the product of their slopes is -1.
Term
Figure Reflection Theorem
Definition
If a figure is determined by certain points, then its reflection image is the corresponding figure determined by the reflection images of those points.
Term
Two Reflection Theorem for Translations
Definition
If m // l, the translation [image] has magnitude two times the distance between l and m, in the direction from l perpendicular to m
Term
Two Reflection Theorem for Rotations
Definition
If m intersects l, the rotation [image] has center at the point of intersection of m and l and has magnitude twice the measure of the non-obtuse angle formed by these lines, in the direction from l to m
