Reflexive Property • This is one of the two properties that are the most common that you will see. The Reflexive property just states that something is congruent to itself. • AD ≡ AD A B C D
Vertical Angles • This is the second of the two. Vertical angles are congruent. • / 1 ≡ / 2 1 2
Linear Pairs • If two angles are linear pairs then they are supplementary (add up to 180).
Triangle Sum • The sum of all three angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.
Midpoint • A midpoint is the middle of a segment. If B is the midpoint of AC then AB ≡ BC.
Bisector • A bisector bisects something. If something is bisected it is cut up into two equal parts.
Parallel lines • The following things will be based off of this drawing copy it down in your notes. 1 2 4 3 5 6 7 8
Corresponding Angles • If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of corresponding angles are congruent.
Alternate Interior Angles • If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the alternate interior angles are congruent.
Alternate Exterior Angles • If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the alternate exterior angles are congruent.
Interiors on the same side • If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the interior angles on the same side of the transversals are supplementary.
