Fall Semester Exam Review - Geometry

Front

What is the measure of ∠ABC if it is given as 30 degrees?

Back

∠ABC = 30 degrees.

Front

What are Corresponding Angles?

Back

Corresponding Angles are pairs of angles that are in similar positions at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others.

Front

If points A, B, and C are collinear and B is between A and C, with BC = 7 and AB = 15, what is AC?

Back

AC = AB + BC = 15 + 7 = 22.

Front

What is the definition of collinear points?

Back

Collinear points are points that lie on the same straight line.

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 degrees.

Front

What is the definition of an angle?

Back

An angle is formed by two rays with a common endpoint called the vertex.

Front

What are Alternate Interior Angles?

Back

Alternate Interior Angles are pairs of angles that lie between two lines and on opposite sides of a transversal.

Front

What is the formula for the area of a triangle?

Back

Area = 1/2 * base * height.

Front

What is the Pythagorean Theorem?

Back

In a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides: a² + b² = c².

Front

What is a transversal in geometry?

Back

A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at different points.
