  1. 2. a form of proof that establishes the truth or the validity of a proposition, by showing that assuming the proposition to be false leads to a contradiction.
  2. 4. the ratio of any pair of corresponding sides.
  3. 5. the shortest distance from a given point to any point on an infinite straight line.
  4. 6. the angle formed in the interior of a circle when two chords intersect on the circle.
  5. 10. Given a true if...then statement “p → q” if the p part is true then we conclude the q part.
  6. 11. a tangent line to a circle is a line that touches the circle at exactly one point, never entering the circle's interior.
  7. 13. Two shapes are Similar when one can become the other after a resize, flip, slide or turn.
  8. 14. A proof that begins by assuming the denial of what is to be proved and then deducing a contradiction from this assumption.
  9. 15. a statement that two ratios are equal
  10. 16. an extension of a chord in a circle which is a straight line segment of which the endpoints lie on the circle.
  11. 17. a proof of a geometric theorem which uses "generalized" points on the Cartesian Plane to make an argument

  1. 1. It can function as a shortcut by allowing us to use the characteristics of one shape to infer information about another.
  2. 3. Two polygons with the same shape
  3. 7. the values of a proportion that are farther apart from each other when written in ratio form using a colon.
  4. 8. a quotient a/b,
  5. 9. the middle terms (b and c) are called the means.
