What is the formula for the area of a triangle?

Back

The area of a triangle is given by the formula: Area = 1/2 * base * height.

Front

What does SSS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

SSS stands for Side-Side-Side, which is a criterion for triangle congruence stating that if three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

Front

How do you perform a dilation on a geometric figure?

Back

To perform a dilation, multiply the coordinates of each vertex of the figure by the scale factor.

Front

What is the relationship between similar triangles?

Back

Similar triangles have the same shape but may differ in size; their corresponding angles are equal, and their corresponding sides are in proportion.

Front

How do you reflect a point over the x-axis?

Back

To reflect a point (x, y) over the x-axis, the new coordinates will be (x, -y).

Front

What is the distance formula in a coordinate plane?

Back

The distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by the formula: Distance = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

Congruent triangles are triangles that are identical in shape and size, meaning all corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

What is the scale factor in dilation?

Back

The scale factor is the ratio of the length of a side of the image to the length of the corresponding side of the original figure.

Front

What is the formula for the perimeter of a triangle?

Back

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides: Perimeter = a + b + c, where a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides.

Front

What is the definition of a vertex in geometry?

Back

A vertex is a point where two or more lines or edges meet, commonly used to describe the corners of geometric shapes.
