Topic Test 5 & 6 Review Part 2

Front

What is the relationship between angles and distances in a triangle?

Back

In a triangle, the side opposite the larger angle is longer than the side opposite the smaller angle.

Front

What is a perpendicular bisector?

Back

A perpendicular bisector is a line that divides a segment into two equal parts at a 90-degree angle.

Front

What does SAS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

SAS stands for Side-Angle-Side, a rule stating that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the Triangle Inequality Theorem?

Back

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

Front

What does SSS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

SSS stands for Side-Side-Side, a rule stating that if all three sides of one triangle are equal to all three sides of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

Congruent triangles are triangles that are identical in shape and size, meaning their corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

What is the difference between AAS and ASA in triangle congruence?

Back

AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) means two angles and a non-included side are equal, while ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) means two angles and the included side are equal.

Front

How can you determine if three lengths can form a triangle?

Back

To determine if three lengths can form a triangle, check if the sum of the lengths of any two sides is greater than the length of the third side.

Front

What is the significance of angle bisectors in triangles?

Back

Angle bisectors divide an angle into two equal parts and can be used to find the incenter of a triangle, which is the center of the inscribed circle.

Front

What is the definition of a triangle?

Back

A triangle is a polygon with three edges and three vertices.
