Section 1.01 Basics of Geometry
Undefined Terms-terms that are needed to define all other terms. Point,
line, and plane are examples.
Point: point A Line: Plane: EFG, FGE, FEG, or P
Defined Terms
line segment
vertex B(Vertices plural). ∠B, ∠ABC, ∠CBA. Parallel:
a || b
Perpendicular: c ⊥ d. circle P or ⊙P
Postulates vs Theorems:
Postulate: a known fact Theorem: information that seems true
but must be proven
Points Postulate—Through any two points, there is exactly one line.
Intersecting Lines Postulate—If two lines intersect, then they intersect in exactly
one point.
Intersecting Planes Postulate—If two distinct planes intersect, then they
intersect in exactly one line.
Coplanar Points Postulate—Through any three non-collinear points, there is
exactly one plane.
Segment Addition Postulate—If B is between A and C, then
Angle Addition Postulate—If S is in the interior of ∠PQR, then m∠PQS + m∠SQR
= m∠PQR.
Linear Pair Postulate—Two angles that form a linear pair are supplementary.
Vertical Angles Theorem —Vertical angles are congruent.
Corresponding Angles Theorem—If a transversal intersects two parallel lines,
then corresponding angles are congruent.
Alternate Interior Angles Theorem—If a transversal intersects two parallel lines,
then alternate interior angles are congruent.
Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem—Exterior angles are congruent.
Same-Side Interior Angles Theorem—If a transversal intersects two parallel
lines, then same-side interior angles are supplementary.
1.02 Basic Constructions
1. congruent: all same measurements ≅,means "congruent to."
AB ≅ CD. hash marks are different, not congruent
2. arc: part of the circumference of a circle
3. segment bisector: a line, point, segment, or ray that divides a segment into
two equal pieces
4. midpoint: a point that divides a segment into two congruent segments
