Study Notes
Angles
- Acute Angle: Less than 90 degrees but more than 0 degrees.
- Adjacent Angles: Share a common side and vertex.
- Complementary Angles: Two angles that sum to 90 degrees.
- Obtuse Angle: Measures more than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.
- Right Angle: Measures exactly 90 degrees.
- Straight Angle: Measures exactly 180 degrees and forms a straight line.
- Supplementary Angles: Two angles whose sum is 180 degrees.
- Vertex: Point where two line segments, lines, or rays meet, forming an angle.
- Vertical Angles: Opposite congruent angles formed by intersecting lines.
Line Relationships
- Perpendicular Lines: Intersecting lines that form right angles.
- Alternate Interior Angles: On opposite sides of a transversal, within the lines.
- Corresponding Angles: Same position on two different parallel lines cut by a transversal.
- Parallel Lines: Lines that do not intersect and are in the same plane.
- Transversal: A line that intersects two or more lines in a plane at different points.
- Alternate Exterior Angles: Outside the lines, on opposite sides of a transversal.
Shapes and Polygons
- Polygon: Closed figure formed by three or more line segments.
-
Triangle: A three-sided polygon, including:
- Acute Triangle: Three acute angles.
- Equilateral Triangle: Three congruent sides.

Transformations
- Congruent: Figures having the same size and shape.
- Similar: Figures that share the same shape but not necessarily size.
-
Transformations: Changes in position or size of a geometric figure, includes:
- Reflection: Flips a figure over a mirror line.
- Rotation: Rotates around a point.
- Translation: Slides each point of a figure the same distance in the same direction.
Circle Measurements
