Geometry--Unit 4_Congruent Triangles Vocabulary Quizlet
Across
- 4. In an isosceles triangle, the side opposite the vertex angle.
- 5. A triangle with one interior right angle (exactly 90°).
- 7. If two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the corresponding non-included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
- 9. In a right triangle, the two sides that form the right angle. In an isosceles triangle, the two congruent sides.
- 11. A triangle where all three interior angles are acute (less than 90°).
- 12. The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of its two remote interior angles.
- 14. If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
- 16. A theorem stating that if two triangles are congruent, then each pair of corresponding parts (angles and sides) is also congruent.
- 17. If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
- 19. A triangle with no congruent sides.
- 20. In an isosceles triangle, the two angles opposite the congruent sides, which are congruent to each other.
- 21. If the hypotenuse and a leg of one right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and a leg of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
Down
- 1. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of any triangle is 180°.
- 2. A triangle with two congruent sides.
- 3. A triangle in which all three interior angles are congruent (each measuring 60°).
- 6. A triangle in which all three sides are congruent.
- 8. Two triangles are congruent if all corresponding angles and corresponding sides are congruent.
- 10. The three line segments that connect the vertices to form the triangle.
- 13. A triangle with one interior obtuse angle (greater than 90°).
- 15. In an isosceles triangle, the angle formed by the two congruent legs.
- 18. If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
