Question Answer
Segment Addition Postulate Two Lengths of a Segment add up to become a full length
Transitive Property of Equality If a=b and b=c then a=c
Subtraction Property of Equality Subtract expressions which are equal
Angle Addition Postulate Add two angle measures to make one large angle measure
Substitution Property of Equality If x=y, then x can be substituted in for y and vice versa
Pependicular Bisector Theorem If a point lies on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment
Converse of the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem If a point is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment, then it lies on the perpendicular bisector of the segment
Angle Bisector Theorem If a point lies on the bisector of an angle, then it is equidistant from the two sides of the angle.
Converse of the Angle Bisector Theorem If a point is in the interior of an angle and is equidistant from the two sides of an angle, then it lies on the bisector of the angle
Circumcenter Theorem The circumcenter (a.k.a a point equidistant from the vertices of a triangle where three perpendicular bisectors of the sides meet) of a triangle is equidistant from the verticies of the triangle
Incenter Theorem The incenter (a.k.a a point equidistant from the sides of a triangle where three angle bisectors intersect) of a triangle is equidistant from the sides of the triangle.
Centroid Theorem The centroid (a.k.a a point two thirds the distance from each vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side) of a triangle is always two thirds the distance from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.
Triangle Midsegment Theorem The segment connecting the midpoint of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is half as long to the third side.
Triangle Longer Side Theorem If one side of a triangle is longer than another side, then the angle opposite the longer side will be larger than the angle facing the shorter side
Triangle Larger Angle Theorem If one angle of a triangle is larger than another angle, then the side opposite the larger angle will be longer than the side opposite the smaller angle
Triangle Inequality Theorem The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must always be larger than the third side
Hinge Theorem If two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of another triangle, and the included angle of the first is larger than the included angle of the second, then the third side of the first is larger than the third side of the second
Converse of the Hinge Theorem
Base Angles Theorem In an isoceles triangle, the angles opposite the congruent sides are congruent
Polygon Exterior Angles Theorem The sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a convex polygon, at each vertex, is 360 degrees. To find each individual measure, divide 360 by n, n being the number of sides
Parallelogram Opposite Sides Theorem If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then the opposite sides are congruent
Parallelogram Opposite Angles Theorem If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then opposite angles are congruent
Parallelogram Consecutive Angles Theorem If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then the consecutive angles are supplementary
Parallelogram Diagonal Theorem If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its diagonals bisect each other
Parallogram Opposite Sides Parallel and Congruent Theorem If one pair of a quadrilateral's sides are congruent and parallel, then a quadrilateral is a parallelogram
Parallelogram Diagonals Converse If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram
Rhombus Corollary A quadrilateral is a rhombus if and only if it has four congruent sides
Rectangle Corollary A quadrilateral is a rectangle if and only if it has four right angles
Square Corollary A quadrilateral is a square if and only if it is a rhombus and a rectangle
Rhombus Diagonals Theorem A parallelogram is a rhombus if and only if its diagonals are perpendicular
Triangle Sum Theorem The sum of the three interior angles of a triangle adds up to 180 degrees
Exterior Angle Theorem The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is greater than either of the measures of the remote interior angles, and is equal to the sum of the other two interior angles
Polygon Interior Angles Theorem The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is equal to (n-2)*180, where n is the number of sides. To find each individual measure, divide (n-2)*180/n
Polygon Exterior Angles Theorem The sum of the measure of the exterior angles of a convex polygon, one angle at each vertex, is 180
Corollary to the Polygon Interior Angles Theorem The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360 degrees, a triangle is 180, a pentagon 720, etc
Parallelogram Opposite Sides Theorem If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then opposite sides are congruent
Parallelogram Opposite Angles Theorem If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then opposite angles are congruent
Parallelogram Consecutive Angles Theorem If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then consecutive angles are supplementary
Parallelogram Opposite Sides Parallel and Congruent Theorem If one pair of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent and parallel, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram
Rhombus Corollary A quadrilateral is a rhombus if and only if it has four congruent sides
