What are alternate exterior angles?
Two nonadjacent exterior angles on opposite sides of a transversal. Theorem: If two lines are parallel and a transversal cuts it, alternate exterior angles are congruent. Theorem: If two lines are cut by a transversal and alternate exterior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.
What are alternate interior angles?
Two nonadjacent interior angles on opposite sides of a tranversal. Theorem: If two lines are parallel and a transversal cuts it, alternate interior angles are congruent. Theorem: If two lines are cut by a transversal and alternate interior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.
What is the slope of a vertical line?
Undefined.
What is the product of a secant segment and a tangent segment drawn to a circle from an external point?
When a secant segment and a tangent segment are drawn to a circle from an external point, the product of the secant segment and its external segment is equal to the square of the tangent segment.
What are the ways geometric mean can be used with right triangles?
When the altitude is drawn to the hypotenuse of a right triangle, the length of the altitude is the geometric mean between the segments of the hypotenuse. When the altitude is drawn to the hypotenuse of a right triangle, each leg is the geometric mean between the hypotenuse and segment of the hypotenuse that is adjacent to that leg.
When two chords intersect inside a circle, the product of the segments of one chord __________ the product of the segments of the other chord.
When two chords intersect inside a circle, the product of the segments of one chord equals the product of the segments of the other chord.
What are concurrent lines?
When two or more lines intersect in one point, the lines are concurrent.
What is the product of one secant segment and another secant segment drawn to a circle from an external point?
When two secant segments are drawn to a circle from an external point, the product of one secant segment and its external segment equals the product of the other secant segment and its external segment.
If the scale factor of two similar solids is a : b, then what is the ratio of a) corresponding perimeters b) base areas, lateral areas, and total areas c) volumes
a) a : b b) a^2 : b^2 c) a^3 : b^3
G maps each point (x,y) to the point (2x,y-1). a) Express this using function notation. b) Find the images of (3,0) and (1,4).
a) g: (x,y) --> (2x,y-1) b) g: (3,0) --> (6,-1) g: (1,4) --> (2,3)
What is the angle addition postulate?
m∠AOB + m∠BOC =m∠AOC
What are some key facts to remember about rotations?
o In a rotation, a counterclockwise rotation is considered positive o In a rotation, a clockwise rotation is considered negative o A rotation 90 degrees counterclockwise would be written with fancy R: R0, 90 o A rotation is an isometry, meaning it preserves angle measurement, etc. o Half-turn: a rotation about point O through 180 degrees; usually denoted by HO o A half-turn about the origin can be written HO: (x, y) ---> (-x, -y) Credit to Phoebe.
