Terrell's Unit 1 Geometry Assessment

Front

What is the midpoint formula for two endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Midpoint = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)

Front

What do you call two rays that meet at a common endpoint?

Back

Angle

Front

What type of reasoning is used when concluding that 28 is divisible by 2 because all even numbers are divisible by 2?

Back

Deductive reasoning

Front

What type of reasoning involves making conclusions based on observations and patterns?

Back

Inductive reasoning

Front

What is the measure of an angle that is 175 degrees?

Back

175 degrees

Front

Define 'angle' in geometry.

Back

An angle is formed by two rays that share a common endpoint.

Front

What is the difference between inductive and deductive reasoning?

Back

Inductive reasoning makes generalizations based on specific observations, while deductive reasoning applies general principles to reach specific conclusions.

Front

What is the formula to calculate the area of a triangle?

Back

Area = (base * height) / 2

Front

What is a line segment?

Back

A line segment is a part of a line that is bounded by two distinct endpoints.

Front

What is the definition of a ray in geometry?

Back

A ray is a part of a line that starts at a point and extends infinitely in one direction.
