Geometry Vocabulary
Across
- 3. a line, ray, or segment that divides a given angle into two equal parts
- 5. the point where three or more lines intersect with each other
- 6. the point where all three altitudes of the triangle intersect
- 7. a line segment drawn from a vertex of a shape (typically a triangle) perpendicular to the opposite side
- 8. at a point is the same distance away from two or more other points
- 10. the geometric center of a shape, calculated as the average position of all points within the figure
- 12. two parts (like angles or sides) of different figures that occupy the same relative position within their respective figures
- 13. the study of geometric figures where corresponding sides of different shapes maintain the same ratio
- 14. a set of three or more lines that all intersect at the same point
Down
- 1. two figures that have the same shape but may be different sizes
- 2. a line that intersects a given line segment at a 90-degree angle (perpendicular) and also divides that line segment into two equal parts at its midpoint (bisects)
- 4. the point where all three angle bisectors of a triangle intersect
- 9. a line segment that connects a vertex of a triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side, effectively dividing that side into two equal parts
- 11. the point where the perpendicular bisectors of all sides of a triangle intersect
