Point
|
the most basic building block of geometry
|
|
Line
|
a straight, continuous arrangement of infinitely many point
|
|
Plane
|
a flat surface
that extends infinitely along its length and width --->NO THICKNESS |
|
Definition
|
a statement that clarifies or explains the meaning of a
word or a phrase |
|
Collinear
|
on the same line
|
|
Coplanar
|
on the same plane
|
|
Line segment
|
two points called the endpoints of the segment
and all the points between them that are collinear with the two points |
|
Endpoints
|
the two points on a line segment that have all the points between them that are collinear
|
|
Congruent segments
|
segments that have the same measure or length
|
|
Midpoint
|
the point on the segment that is the same
distance from both endpoints |
|
Bisects
|
divides the segment into two congruent segments
|
|
Ray
|
any of a group of lines diverging from a common center
|
|
Angle
|
two rays that share a common endpoint, provided that the two rays are noncollinear
|
|
Vertex
|
The common endpoint of the two rays
|
|
Sides (angle)
|
the two rays of an angle
|
|
Measure of an angle
|
the smallest amount of rotation about the vertex from one ray to the other, measured
in degrees |
|
Degrees
|
a unit of measure for angles equal to an angle with its vertex at the center of a circle and its sides cutting off 1/360 of the circumference
|
|
Protractor
|
The geometry tool you use to measure an angle
|
|
Congruent angles
|
two angles that have the same measure
|
|
Angle bisector
|
A ray that contains the vertex and divides the angle into two congruent angles
|
|
Incoming angle
|
ormed by the cushion and the path of the ball approaching the cushion
|
|
Outgoing angle
|
formed by
the cushion and the path of the ball leaving the cushion |
|
Polygon
|
a closed figure in a plane, formed by connecting line segments endpoint to endpoint with each segment intersecting exactly two others
|
|
Side (polygon)
|
each line segment
|
|
Vertex (polygon)
|
Each endpoint where the sides
meet |
|
Diagnol
|
line segment that
connects two nonconsecutive vertices |
|
Convex (polygon)
|
no diagonal is outside the polygon
|
|
Concave (polygon)
|
at least one diagonal is outside the polygon
|
|
Congruent polygons
|
two polygons that are exactly the same in size and shape
|
