Front

What is the definition of similar triangles?

Back

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

Front

State the Triangle Sum Theorem.

Back

The Triangle Sum Theorem states that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.

Front

What is the Pythagorean Theorem?

Back

The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides (a and b). It can be expressed as: c² = a² + b².

Front

Define the term 'congruent triangles'.

Back

Congruent triangles are triangles that are identical in shape and size. Their corresponding sides and angles are equal.

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

Explain the concept of complementary angles.

Back

Complementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 90 degrees.

Front

What are supplementary angles?

Back

Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 180 degrees.

Front

What is the definition of a polygon?

Back

A polygon is a closed figure formed by a finite number of straight line segments connected end to end.

Front

What is the difference between a regular and an irregular polygon?

Back

A regular polygon has all sides and angles equal, while an irregular polygon has sides and angles that are not all the same.

Front

Define the term 'circumference' in relation to circles.

Back

Circumference is the distance around a circle. It can be calculated using the formula: Circumference = 2 * π * radius.
