Geometry Chapter 5 Review (Grudgeball)

Front

What is the definition of a midpoint in geometry?

Back

A midpoint is a point that divides a line segment into two equal parts.

Front

What is the formula to find the length of a segment given midpoints?

Back

If S and T are midpoints of segments RU and RV respectively, then the length of ST is half the length of UV.

Front

What is an angle bisector?

Back

An angle bisector is a line or ray that divides an angle into two equal angles.

Front

What is a perpendicular bisector?

Back

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

Front

What is a median in a triangle?

Back

A median is a line segment from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.

Front

What is a midsegment in a triangle?

Back

A midsegment is a segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle.

Front

What is the circumcenter of a triangle?

Back

The circumcenter is the point where the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle intersect.

Front

What is the orthocenter of a triangle?

Back

The orthocenter is the point where the altitudes of a triangle intersect.

Front

What is the incenter of a triangle?

Back

The incenter is the point where the angle bisectors of a triangle intersect, and it is the center of the inscribed circle.

Front

What is the centroid of a triangle?

Back

The centroid is the point where the three medians of a triangle intersect.
