point
|
an exact location in space
|
|
line
|
An infinite set of points forming a straight path extending in opposite directions
|
|
line segment
|
A part of a line that consists of the two endpoints and all the points of the line between them.
|
|
ray
|
A part of a line that has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction.
|
|
Midpoint:
|
The point on a line segment that divides it into two equal segments.
|
|
angle
|
The union of two rays that share a common endpoint
|
|
plane
|
A flat surface with infinite length and width but no thickness.
|
|
Collinear:
|
On the same line.
|
|
Perpendicular lines:
|
Lines that intersect to form a right angle.
|
|
Parallel lines
|
Lines in the same plane that do not intersect
|
|
Supplementary angles
|
Two angles with measures whose sum is 180˚
|
|
Interior angle
|
An angle on the inside of a polygon, formed by the sides of the polygon (see GSP3).
|
|
Exterior angle
|
: An angle formed by the side of a polygon and an extension of an adjacent side. At each vertex, there are two exterior angles (see GSP3).
|
|
Adjacent angles
|
Angles that share a common ray and endpoint, but that do not overlap
|
|
Linear pair
|
A linear pair of angles is formed when two lines intersect. The angles are adjacent and formed by the two intersecting lines. Below, and are a linear pair.
|
|
Vertex:
|
The common endpoint of two rays or segments (plural: vertices)
|
|
Polygon:
|
A closed figure formed by line segments that meet only at their endpoints.
|
|
Regular polygon
|
A polygon that has all sides congruent and all angles congruent.
|
|
Triangle:
|
A three-sided polygon
|
|
Quadrilateral:
|
A four-sided polygon.
|
|
Pentagon
|
A five-sided polygon
|
|
Hexagon
|
A six-sided polygon
|
|
Septagon
|
A seven-sided polygon
|
|
Octagon
|
An eight-sided polygon.
|
|
Nonagon
|
A nine-sided polygon.
|
|
Decagon:
|
A ten-sided polygon.
|
|
Interior angle
|
An angle on the inside of a polygon, formed by the sides of the polygon (see GSP 3).
|
|
Exterior angle
