Front

What is AA Similarity in triangles?

Back

AA Similarity (Angle-Angle Similarity) states that if two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.

Front

What is SSS Similarity in triangles?

Back

SSS Similarity (Side-Side-Side Similarity) states that if the three sides of one triangle are proportional to the three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.

Front

What is SAS Similarity in triangles?

Back

SAS Similarity (Side-Angle-Side Similarity) states that if two sides of one triangle are proportional to two sides of another triangle and the included angles are equal, then the triangles are similar.

Front

How do you find the slope of a line given two points?

Back

The slope (m) is calculated using the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What is the midpoint formula?

Back

The midpoint M between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by M = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2).

Front

What is the equation of a line in slope-intercept form?

Back

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

What is the measure of angles in a parallelogram?

Back

In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal, and adjacent angles are supplementary (sum to 180 degrees).

Front

How do you construct a perpendicular line through a point?

Back

To construct a perpendicular line through a point, use a compass to draw arcs from the point, then use a straightedge to connect the intersection points of the arcs.

Front

What is the relationship between the angles formed by a transversal intersecting parallel lines?

Back

When a transversal intersects parallel lines, corresponding angles are equal, alternate interior angles are equal, and consecutive interior angles are supplementary.

Front

What is the formula for the area of a triangle?

Back

The area A of a triangle is given by A = (1/2) * base * height.
