Front

What is the sum of the interior angles of a triangle?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180°.

Front

Define similar triangles.

Back

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

Front

What is the AA Similarity Postulate?

Back

The AA Similarity Postulate states that if two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.

Front

What is the SSS Similarity Theorem?

Back

The SSS Similarity Theorem states that if the corresponding sides of two triangles are in proportion, then the triangles are similar.

Front

What is the SAS Similarity Theorem?

Back

The SAS Similarity Theorem states that if two sides of one triangle are in proportion to two sides of another triangle and the included angles are equal, then the triangles are similar.

Front

How do you find the length of a side in a triangle using the Pythagorean theorem?

Back

In a right triangle, the length of a side can be found using the formula a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the other two sides.

Front

What is the formula for the area of a triangle?

Back

The area of a triangle can be calculated using the formula: Area = 1/2 * base * height.

Front

What is the definition of a right triangle?

Back

A right triangle is a triangle that has one angle measuring 90 degrees.

Front

What is the relationship between the angles in a triangle?

Back

The sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees.

Front

How do you determine if two triangles are congruent?

Back

Two triangles are congruent if their corresponding sides and angles are equal. This can be established using criteria such as SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, or HL.
