Kendall Hunt Geometry Unit 2 Review

Front

What is the definition of a perpendicular bisector?

Back

A perpendicular bisector is a line that divides a segment into two equal parts at a 90-degree angle.

Front

What does the Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) congruence theorem state?

Back

The ASA theorem states that if two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the definition of triangle congruence?

Back

Triangle congruence means that two triangles are identical in shape and size, which can be proven using various congruence theorems.

Front

What is the definition of rigid motion?

Back

Rigid motion is a transformation that preserves distance and angle measures, including translations, rotations, and reflections.

Front

What is the definition of corresponding parts of congruent figures?

Back

Corresponding parts of congruent figures are the sides and angles that are in the same relative position in two congruent shapes.

Front

What is the definition of a rectangle?

Back

A rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles and opposite sides that are equal in length.

Front

What is the definition of congruence in geometry?

Back

Congruence in geometry means that two figures have the same shape and size, allowing them to be superimposed on each other.

Front

What is the definition of a triangle?

Back

A triangle is a polygon with three edges and three vertices.

Front

What is the definition of a reflection in geometry?

Back

A reflection is a transformation that flips a figure over a line, creating a mirror image.

Front

What is the definition of angle measure?

Back

Angle measure is the degree of rotation needed to bring one ray into alignment with another ray, typically measured in degrees.
