Tricky Triangles
Across
- 2. a^2 +b^2 = c^2
- 3. If the corresponding side lengths of two triangles are the same, then the triangles are congruent
- 5. The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two nonadjacent interior angles
- 7. A triangle with three congruent sides
- 10. When three or more lines, rays, or segments intersect in the same point
- 12. A triangle with at least two congruent sides
- 14. If a ray bisects the angle of a triangle, then it divides the opposite side into segments whose lengths are proportional to the lengths of the other two sides
- 17. 1/2bh
- 18. A segment from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side
- 19. The segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is half as long as that side
- 20. If a line parallel to one side of a triangle intersects the other two sides, then it divides the two side proportionally
Down
- 1. If two triangles are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the two triangles are similar
- 4. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees
- 6. If an angle of one triangle is congruent to an angle of a second triangle and the lengths of the sides including these angles are also congruent, then the triangles are congruent
- 8. A segment, ray, line, or plane that is perpendicular to a segment at its midpoint
- 9. The perpendicular segment from a vertex to the opposite side or to the line that contains the opposite side
- 11. If two angles are congruent to two angles of one triangle then the third angles are congruent
- 13. The point at which the lines containing the three altitudes of a triangle intersect
- 15. The point where 3 perpendicular bisectors intersect
- 16. A triangle with no congruent sides
