Front

What is the Triangle Inequality Theorem?

Back

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

Front

Which lengths cannot represent the sides of a triangle?

Back

Lengths that do not satisfy the Triangle Inequality Theorem.

Front

What does ASA stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

ASA stands for Angle-Side-Angle, a criterion for triangle congruence.

Front

What is a parallelogram?

Back

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with opposite sides that are parallel and equal in length.

Front

How do you find the midsegment of a trapezoid?

Back

The midsegment of a trapezoid is the average of the lengths of the two bases.

Front

What is the Pythagorean Theorem?

Back

The Pythagorean Theorem states that 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.

Front

What is the distance formula?

Back

The distance formula is derived from the Pythagorean Theorem and is used to find the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2): d = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

Front

What is the definition of a trapezoid?

Back

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides.

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

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

Front

What does AAS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

AAS stands for Angle-Angle-Side, a criterion for triangle congruence.
