  • Geometry came from the greek word "geo" which means earth and "metron" means measurement
  • Geometry is the measurement of the earth
  • Undefined terms does not have a description
  • Point has no size no dimension and merely position
  • Line contains 2 or more points and it has infinite length
  • Line contains 2 arrow heads
  • Plane is a flat surface with no thickness that extends without end in all directions
  • Plane contains 3 or more points
  • Coplanar is the points that lie on the same plane
  • non-coplanar is the points that do not lie on the same plane
  • collinear is the points that lie on the same line
  • non collinear is the points that do not lie on the same line
  • intersecting lines - 2 lines with a common point
  • perpendicular lines- they intersect to form four right angle
  • parallel lines - lines that do not intersect
  • line - infinite length
  • segment has end points
  • ray has 1 end point and 1 arrow head
  • midpoint divides a segment into 2 congruent segments
  • angles union of 2 noncollinear rays that have a common endpoint
  • vertex is where to lines meet
  • slides are rays
  • initial side - fixed side and it is horizontal
  • terminal side- movable ray
  • acute - less than 90 degrees
  • right angle - 90 degrees
  • obtuse - greater than 90 but less than 180 degrees
  • straight angle - 180 degrees
  • reflex- greater than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees
  • angle pairs - appear in two to display a certain geometrical property
  • complementary angles - add up to 90 degrees
  • adjacent angles - share the same vertex and side, but not an interior point.
  • supplementary angles - add up to 180 degrees
  • vertically opposite angles - are on different sides of transversal line
  • linear pair - 2 angles that are adjacent and supplementary
  • transversal - line that intersects 2 or more lines
  • corresponding angle - lie on the same side of the transversal in corresponding position
  • alternate interior - lie inside on opposite sides of the transversal
  • alternate exterior - lie outside on opposite side of the transversal
  • same side interior - lie inside and same side of the transversal and is equal to 180 degrees
