  1. 2. to have the same shape and size
  2. 3. an angle within a shape that contains the base of the shape as one of its sides
  3. 4. a line segment which bisects another line segment at 90 degrees
  4. 9. a point on a line segment that divides it into two equal parts
  5. 12. are those that don't share a vertex or corner of a triangle with the exterior angle
  6. 15. a ray that divides an angle into two equal parts
Down
  1. 1. the sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side, and if the sum of any two sides of a triangle is not greater than the third side it means the triangle does not exist
  2. 5. is a property on congruence that shows that any geometric figure is congruent to itself
  3. 6. states that the vertical angles that are formed when two lines intersect are congruent
  4. 7. stands for "corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent"
  5. 8. an angle that is formed by two sides of a polygon, sharing a common vertex
  6. 10. the segment formed by connecting the midpoints of any two sides of a triangle
  7. 11. an unprovable rule or first principle accepted as true because it is self-evident or particularly useful
  8. 13. is the side connecting two angles
  9. 14. is the logical way in which mathematicians demonstrate that a statement is true
