  1. 8. a segment that connects the midpoints of two sides of a triangle
  2. 10. the perpendicular drawn from the vertex of the triangle to the opposite side. Also, known as the height of the triangle
  3. 13. the common intersection of the three altitudes of a triangle or their extensions or of the several altitudes of a polyhedron provided these latter exist and meet in a point.
  4. 14. A line, segment, or ray that passes through a midpoint of another segment
  5. 16. the same shape and size, or if one has the same shape and size as the mirror image of the other.
  6. 17. an angle inside a polygon at a vertex of the polygon.
  7. 18. the distances between that point and each object in the set are equal
  8. 19. When quantities have the same relative size. In other words they have the same ratio.
  9. 20. the point where all of the angle bisectors meet in the triangle
Down
  1. 1. sides are equal in length, and their corresponding angles are equal in measure.
  2. 2. are lines passing through the midpoint of each side which are perpendicular to the given side.
  3. 3. the point at which the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle intersect and which is equidistant from the three vertices.
  4. 4. either of the angles of a triangle that have one side in common with the base.
  5. 5. lines passing through the midpoint of each side which are perpendicular to the given side.
  6. 6. A line that splits an angle into two equal angles.
  7. 7. the point where the three medians of the triangle meet
  8. 9. a circle inscribed in a triangle or other figure so as to touch (but not cross) each side.
  9. 11. a line segment drawn from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side of the vertex
  10. 12. are when two triangles with two pairs of equal corresponding angles are similar.
  11. 15. Two figures that have the same shape are said to be similar
