Geometry Midterm Review

What is the definition of a "Point" in geometry?

• A location with no size or shape

• A line with infinite length

• A shape with three sides

• A circle with a fixed radius

What does "Collinear" mean?

• Points that lie on the same line

• Lines that intersect at a point

• Angles that are equal

• Shapes that are identical

What does "Congruent" refer to in geometry?

• Same length or size

• Different shapes

• Parallel lines

• Perpendicular angles

How is an "Angle" defined in geometry?

• The intersection of two rays at an endpoint

• A line that extends infinitely

• A closed shape with four sides

• A point with no dimensions

What is a "Linear Pair"?

• Adjacent angles that are supplementary, combined they make a straight line

• Two lines that never meet

• A pair of parallel lines

• Two angles that are equal

What is a "Conjecture" in geometry?

• Concluding statement reached using inductive reasoning

• A proven theorem

• A hypothesis with no evidence

• A random guess

What is a "Counterexample"?

• Example that proves a conjecture is false

• A supporting example for a theorem

• A proof of a hypothesis

• An example that confirms a conjecture

What are corresponding angles?

• Angles in the same position, and are congruent

• Angles that are adjacent and supplementary

• Angles that are opposite and equal

• Angles that form a straight line

What is a line segment?

• A line that extends indefinitely in one direction

• A measurable part of a line consisting of two endpoints

• A line that forms a right angle

• A line that intersects another line

What does the Segment Addition Postulate state?

• If A, B, and C are collinear points and B is between A and C, then AB + BC = AC

• If A, B, and C are collinear points, then AB = BC

• If A, B, and C are collinear points, then AB + AC = BC

• If A, B, and C are collinear points, then AB = AC
