Geometry - Review One

Front

What is the hypotenuse in a right triangle?

Back

The hypotenuse is the longest side of a right triangle, opposite the right angle.

Front

What are vertical angles?

Back

Vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines intersect. They are always equal.

Front

What are alternate interior angles?

Back

Alternate interior angles are pairs of angles on opposite sides of a transversal but inside the two lines it intersects.

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Corresponding angles are pairs of angles that are in similar positions at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others.

Front

What is a reflection in geometry?

Back

A reflection is a transformation that flips a figure over a line, creating a mirror image.

Front

What is a translation in geometry?

Back

A translation is a transformation that moves every point of a figure the same distance in the same direction.

Front

What is a rotation in geometry?

Back

A rotation is a transformation that turns a figure around a fixed point, called the center of rotation.

Front

What is the sine ratio in a right triangle?

Back

The sine ratio is the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the hypotenuse (Opp/Hyp).

Front

What is the cosine ratio in a right triangle?

Back

The cosine ratio is the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the length of the hypotenuse (Adj/Hyp).

Front

What is the tangent ratio in a right triangle?

Back

The tangent ratio is the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the adjacent side (Opp/Adj).
