Unit 2 Geometry Properties

Front

What is the Segment Addition Postulate?

Back

If point B is between points A and C, then AB + BC = AC.

Front

What does the Substitution Property state?

Back

If a = b, then a can be replaced by b in any expression.

Front

Define the Reflexive Property.

Back

For any segment or angle, it is congruent to itself (e.g., GH = GH).

Front

What is the Definition of Congruence?

Back

Two figures are congruent if they have the same shape and size.

Front

Explain the Distributive Property.

Back

a(b + c) = ab + ac.

Front

What is the Symmetric Property?

Back

If a = b, then b = a.

Front

What is the Transitive Property?

Back

If a = b and b = c, then a = c.

Front

What does the Addition Property state?

Back

If a = b, then a + c = b + c.

Front

What is the Angle Addition Postulate?

Back

If point B is in the interior of angle AOC, then m∠AOB + m∠BOC = m∠AOC.

Front

What is the Definition of a Midpoint?

Back

A point that divides a segment into two equal parts.
