This symbol is called this. (Ms. Hall will draw the sign)
What is congruent

Point B is between points A and C. Name the three things that are true A, B, and C are collinear Ray AB is the same as Ray BA. Ray AC is the same as Ray AB. Ray BC and BA are opposite rays
What is not Ray AB is the same as Ray BA.

Line segment AC is 24 units. Point B is the midpoint of segment AC, and point D is the midpoint of segment BC. 6 is the distance between what two points?
What is segment BD, or DC.

If a and b are negative integers, then their product is always positive. Name the converse statement.
What is if the product of a and b is always positive, then a and b are negative integers.
