Isosc Triangles Geometric Transformations and Distance B

Front

What is the definition of an isosceles triangle?

Back

An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has at least two sides of equal length.

Front

How do you find the midpoint between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The midpoint M is given by M = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2).

Front

What are perfect squares?

Back

Perfect squares are numbers that can be expressed as the square of an integer.

Front

What is the relationship between parallel lines and transversals?

Back

When a transversal crosses parallel lines, it creates corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, and alternate exterior angles that are equal.

Front

What is the formula for the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The distance D is given by D = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

Front

What are alternate interior angles?

Back

Alternate interior angles are pairs of angles that are on opposite sides of a transversal and inside the two lines.

Front

How do you determine if two triangles are congruent?

Back

Two triangles are congruent if their corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

What is the Pythagorean theorem?

Back

In a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides: a² + b² = c².

Front

What is the sum of the interior angles of a triangle?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.

Front

What is a transversal in geometry?

Back

A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at different points.
