Study Notes
Angle Types and Properties
- Acute angle: Measures greater than 0° and less than 90°.
- Obtuse angle: Measures greater than 90° and less than 180°.
- Right angle: Exactly 90°.
- Straight angle: Exactly 180°.
- Supplementary angles: Two angles whose measures add up to 180°.
Angle Relationships
- Adjacent angles: Share a common vertex and side, but have no common interior points.
- Linear pair: A pair of adjacent angles that form a straight line.
- Vertical angles: Non-adjacent angles that are formed when two lines intersect.
Line and Segment Definitions
- Angle: Formed by two rays with a common endpoint (the vertex).
- Line: A straight figure that extends infinitely in both directions.
- Line segment: A part of a line that is bounded by two endpoints.
- Ray: A portion of a line that starts at a single endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction.
Points and Planes
- Point: A location with no size or shape; a fundamental concept in geometry.
- Line: Extends infinitely, comprised of points in a single dimension.
- Plane: A flat surface made up of points extending in two dimensions.
Collinearity and Coplanarity
- Collinear points: Points that lie on the same straight line.
- Coplanar figures: Shapes or points that are contained within the same plane.
Polygon Properties
- Polygon: Closed, two-dimensional figure with straight line segments.
- Equiangular polygon: A polygon with all angles congruent.
- Equilateral polygon: A polygon with all sides congruent.
Bisectors
- Angle bisector: A ray that divides an angle into two equal parts.
- Segment bisector: A figure that divides a line segment into two equal halves.
Additional Concepts
- Intersection: The set of points that two figures have in common.
- Space: A three-dimensional set encompassing all points.
- Polyhedron: A solid figure composed of polygonal faces.
- Midpoint: The point that lies exactly halfway along a line segment.
Undefined Terms
- Undefined terms: Concepts that cannot be formally defined but can be understood through examples, such as point, line, and plane.
