[Geometry] Unit 4: Review Game

Front

What does ASA stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

ASA stands for Angle-Side-Angle, a postulate used to prove that two triangles are congruent if two angles and the included side are equal.

Front

What does SAS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

SAS stands for Side-Angle-Side, a postulate used to prove that two triangles are congruent if two sides and the included angle are equal.

Front

What does SSS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

SSS stands for Side-Side-Side, a postulate used to prove that two triangles are congruent if all three sides of one triangle are equal to the three sides of another triangle.

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

Congruent triangles are triangles that are identical in shape and size, meaning all corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

What is an equilateral triangle?

Back

An equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are of equal length and all three angles are equal to 60°.

Front

How do you solve for 'x' in a triangle problem?

Back

To solve for 'x', use the properties of triangles, such as the sum of angles in a triangle equals 180°, or apply congruence postulates.

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°.

Front

What is the difference between ASA and AAS?

Back

ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) requires two angles and the included side, while AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) requires two angles and a non-included side.

Front

What is the significance of the included angle in SAS?

Back

In SAS, the included angle is the angle formed between the two sides being considered for congruence.

Front

What is a right triangle?

Back

A right triangle is a triangle that has one angle measuring 90°.
