What is the pair of angles called whose sum is 90 degrees?

Complementary angles

100

Define midpoint

The exact middle or center between two points.

100

Define a theorem

A theorem is a statement that has been proved or can be proven using mathematical reasoning.

100

What do we call two lines that are equal distances apart and never intersect?

Parallel lines
100

What does the Greek word Geometry mean?

"To measure Earth"

200

Define angle

When two rays meet at a common vertex or endpoint.

200

What is the midpoint formula?

(xm, ym) = (x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2

200

Draw or describe the segment addition theorem/postulate.

The distance from one endpoint of a segment to the other is the sum of the distances from the middle point to either endpoint. i.e.: AB + BC = AC

200

What do we call the ray that splits an angle into two equal parts?

An angle bisector

200

In the equation y = mx + b, what letter represents the y-intercept?

The letter b

300

What are two opposite angles called that are formed by intersecting lines?

Vertical angles

300

What is the distance formula?

d = sq. root ( [(x2 - x1)^2] + [(y2 - y1)^2])

Complete the following circle theorem:

The angle at the center of a circle is __________ the inscribed angle at the circumference of the circle.

Twice

300

Define coordinates

The x and y values that a point is located at.

300

Solve for x:

5/2 x - 1 = 8 + 2x

x = 18

SEE BOARD FOR PICTURE:

a) What is the pair of angles 4 and 5 called?

b) What is the pair of angles 1 and 8 called?

a) Alternate interior angles

b) Alternate exterior angles

Find the midpoint between points A (2, 6) and B (8,-2).

(xm, ym) = (x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2

= (2+8)/2 , (6-2)/2   = (10/2 , 4/2)

= (5, 2)

400

Complete the following theorem:

The angle between the tangent of a circle and the radius is always ______________ degrees.

90 degrees

400

What do we call a series of points that extend in opposite directions without end?

A line
400

Find the slope of line AC:

A (-1, 3)

C (-3, -2)

(-2 - 3) / (-3 - -1) = -5/-2

Slope = 5/2

If a straight line is split into 2 angles and one has a measure of 103 degrees, find the measure of the other angle.

180 - 103 = 77 degrees

500

Find the midpoint between 7 and - 2. 

= (7 - -2)/2 = 9/2 = 4.5

NOW ADD: -2 + 4.5 = 2.5 is the midpoint

SEE THE BOARD: 

Which triangle congruence theorem is shown in the picture?

Angle Angle Side: AAS 

500

Draw or describe corresponding angles AND their relationship.

Corresponding angles are a pair of angles located in the same position at each intersection where a straight line (transversal) crosses two other lines. If the two lines are parallel, they are congruent.

A survey shows that 75% of people who visit the library check out at least 2 books. The survey also found that of those people, 35% visit the library every week. What percentage of people visit the library every week but check out fewer than 2 books?

100% - 75% = 25% do not check out 2 books

25% x 35% = 8.75%
