Precision in Geometry: Mastering Segments and Angles Questions

What is the precise definition of an angle?

• A figure formed by two rays with a common endpoint.

• A figure formed by two lines that never intersect.

• A figure formed by a single line segment.

• A figure formed by a circle and its radius.

Which of the following is a property of a circle?

• It has four right angles.

• All points on the circle are equidistant from the center.

• It has two pairs of parallel sides.

• It has three vertices.

What is the definition of perpendicular lines?

• Lines that intersect to form an acute angle.

• Lines that intersect to form a right angle.

• Lines that never intersect.

• Lines that are equidistant from each other.

How would you describe parallel lines?

• Lines that intersect at a right angle.

• Lines that intersect at an acute angle.

• Lines that never intersect and are equidistant from each other.

• Lines that form a circle.

What differentiates a line segment from a line?

• A line segment has two endpoints, while a line extends infinitely in both directions.

• A line segment is curved, while a line is straight.

• A line segment is always horizontal, while a line can be in any direction.

• A line segment is always vertical, while a line can be in any direction.

If two lines are perpendicular, what is the measure of the angle they form?

Which of the following statements is true about parallel lines?

• They intersect at one point.

• They intersect at two points.

• They never intersect.

• They form a right angle.

What is the precise definition of a circle?

• A set of points in a plane that are all equidistant from a given point called the center.

• A set of points in a plane that form a right angle.

• A set of points in a plane that are all equidistant from a given line.

• A set of points in a plane that form a straight line.

Which of the following best describes a line segment?

• A part of a line that has two endpoints.

• A part of a line that extends infinitely in one direction.

• A part of a line that forms a right angle.

• A part of a line that forms a circle.

If two lines are parallel, what can be said about the distance between them?

• The distance varies.

• The distance is zero.

• The distance is infinite.

• The distance is constant.
