POD Notation (Dec5) 2nd-8th

Front

What is the vertex of an angle?

Back

The vertex of an angle is the point where the two rays (sides) of the angle meet.

Front

What are the sides of an angle?

Back

The sides of an angle are the two rays that form the angle, extending infinitely in one direction.

Front

Identify the vertex of ∠ABC if A, B, and C are points on a plane.

Back

The vertex of ∠ABC is point B.

Front

How do you denote an angle using its vertex?

Back

An angle can be denoted using its vertex and points on its sides, for example, ∠ABC where B is the vertex.

Front

What does it mean for two segments to be congruent?

Back

Two segments are congruent if they have the same length.

Front

If DC ≅ BC, what can we conclude about the lengths of DC and BC?

Back

DC and BC have equal lengths.

Front

What is the notation used to indicate that two angles are congruent?

Back

The notation for congruent angles is typically represented as ∠A ≅ ∠B.

Front

What is the significance of the vertex in geometric figures?

Back

The vertex is crucial as it helps define the shape and properties of the figure, such as angles and sides.

Front

How can you identify the vertex in a diagram of an angle?

Back

The vertex is usually marked as a point where the two rays meet, often labeled with a letter.

Front

What is the relationship between the sides of an angle and its vertex?

Back

The sides of an angle are defined by the rays that extend from the vertex.
