Title: Right triangle


1
Right triangle
  • A triangle with ONE angle measuring exactly 90

2
Plane
  • A flat surface in space, with no thickness, that
    continues endlessly in all directions

3
angle
  • A figure formed from two rays with a common
    endpoint

4
Obtuse angle
  • An angle with a measure greater than 90 but less
    than 180

5
Right angle
  • An angle with a measure of exactly 90

6
complementary
  • A pair of angles whose measures have a sum of 90

7
Point
  • an exact location in space

8
Acute angle
  • An angle with a measure less than 90

9
Ray
  • Part of a line that has one endpoint and travels
    endlessly in only one direction

10
supplementary
  • A pair of angles whose measures have a sum of 180

11
Line
  • A straight path of points that travels endlessly
    in opposite directions

12
Segment
  • Part of a line that is two endpoints and all of
    the points that lie between them

13
triangle
  • A figure formed when 3 points, not on the same
    line, are joined by segments

14
circle
  • A set of points in the same plane that are all
    the same distance from a given point

15
Acute triangle
  • A triangle with all three angles measuring less
    than 90

16
Heptagon
  • A polygon with 7 sides

17
Straight angle
  • An angle with a measure of exactly 180

18
Parallel lines
  • Two lines in the same plane that never intersect

19
Isosceles triangle
  • A triangle with at least two sides equal in length

20
perpendicular
  • Two lines rays or segments that meet or cross to
    form right angles

21
congruent
  • Two figures that are the same size and the same
    shape

22
Polygon
  • A closed plane figure made by joining 3 or more
    segments that do not cross

23
Hexagon
  • A polygon with 6 sides

24
Trapezoid
  • A quadrilateral with ONE pair of parallel sides

25
Equilateral triangle
  • A triangle with ALL 3 sides equal in length

26
Octagon
  • A polygon with 8 sides

27
Pentagon
  • A polygon with 5 sides

28
diameter
  • A segment that goes from a point on the circle,
    through the center, to another point on the circle

29
Parallelogram
  • A quadrilateral with BOTH pair of opposite sides
    parallel and congruent

30
Central angle
  • An angle whose vertex is the center of the circle

31
quadrilateral
  • A polygon with 4 sides

32
Decagon
  • A polygon with 10 sides

33
chord
  • A segment joining 2 points that lie on the same
    circle

34
rhombus
  • A parallelogram with 4 congruent (equal) sides

35
Scalene triangle
  • A triangle with all three sides different in
    length

36
Nonagon
  • A polygon with 9 sides

37
Regular polygon
  • all of its sides have the same length and all of
    its angles have the same measure

38
Obtuse triangle
  • A triangle with ONE angle measuring greater than
    90 but less than 180

39
Rectangle
  • A parallelogram with 4 right angles

40
square
  • A parallelogram with 4 right angles and 4
    congruent (equal) sides

41
radius
  • A segment joining the center of a circle to a
    point ON the circle

42
arc
  • Part of a circle
