Geometry Unit 3 Test

Front

What is the bisector of a given angle?

Back

A line or ray that divides an angle into two equal parts.

Front

What is a rigid motion in geometry?

Back

A transformation that preserves distance and angle measures, such as reflections, rotations, and translations.

Front

What is the relationship between congruent triangles?

Back

Congruent triangles have the same size and shape, meaning their corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

What defines an equilateral triangle?

Back

A triangle with all three sides of equal length and all three angles measuring 60 degrees.

Front

What is the construction of a perpendicular bisector?

Back

A line that divides a line segment into two equal parts at a 90-degree angle.

Front

What is the purpose of using a compass and straightedge in constructions?

Back

To create precise geometric figures and constructions without measuring tools.

Front

What is the definition of corresponding angles?

Back

Angles that are in the same position on two parallel lines cut by a transversal.

Front

What is the significance of parallel lines in geometry?

Back

Parallel lines never intersect and are always the same distance apart.

Front

What is an isosceles triangle?

Back

A triangle with at least two sides of equal length and the angles opposite those sides are equal.

Front

What is the definition of a right triangle?

Back

A triangle that has one angle measuring 90 degrees.
