Geometry SOL Review Strand 1

Front

What is the definition of parallel lines?

Back

Parallel lines are lines in a plane that never meet; they are always the same distance apart.

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 degrees.

Front

What is the definition of supplementary angles?

Back

Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 180 degrees.

Front

If two lines are cut by a transversal, what are alternate interior angles?

Back

Alternate interior angles are pairs of angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and inside the two lines.

Front

What is the definition of symmetry in geometry?

Back

Symmetry in geometry refers to a balance or correspondence between two halves of a figure.

Front

What is line symmetry?

Back

Line symmetry occurs when a figure can be divided into two identical halves that are mirror images of each other.

Front

What is point symmetry?

Back

Point symmetry occurs when every part of a figure has a matching part at an equal distance from a central point.

Front

How do you find the midpoint of a line segment?

Back

The midpoint of a line segment is found by averaging the x-coordinates and the y-coordinates of the endpoints.

Front

What is the definition of a transversal?

Back

A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at different points.

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Corresponding angles are pairs of angles that are in the same position on different parallel lines cut by a transversal.
