  1. Conjunction (And Statements)
    Squares are parallelograms and trapezoids are circles

    BOTH PARTS must be true to be true

    T and F therefore the statement is false!
  2. Equation of a circle (MEMORIZE THISS!)
    Image Upload 2

    • where (h, k) is the center
    • r = radius
  3. Disjunction (or Statements)

    Squares are parallelograms OR trapezoids are circles.
    One piece needs to be true for this to be true

    T or F therefore the statement is TRUE.
  4. 5 ways to prove congruent triangles
    • SSS
    • SAS
    • AAS
    • ASA

    180(number of sides-2)

    Diagonals are perpendicular

    Diagonals bisect the angles

    It is a special parallelogram

  13. What must be true about the side lenghts of a triangle...

    E.X: Which of the following lengths can create a triangle?

    a) {3,6,2}
    b) {3,6,8}
    The sum of the two smaller sides must be larger than the longest side!

    3 + 2 is less than 6 (so A wont make a triangle)

    choice B will make a triangle!
  14. What do we know about SIMILAR FIGURES?
    Corresponding ANGLES are CONGRUENT

    Ratio of sides = ratio of perimeters = ratio of altitudes

    • (Ratio of sides)2= ratio of areas

    or

    (average the x's, average the y's)

    a transformation that PRESERVES SIZE

    the only transformation that is NOT an isometry is a Dilation!

    Flip

    (you can do FLIPS IN CONVERSE SNEAKERS)
  23. CONTRAPOSITIVE
    Logically equivalent to the original

    • Image Upload 16
    • or

    A = (average of the bases times the height)
  28. What do we know about the slopes of PARALLEL LINES?
    THEY ARE THE SAME!
  29. What do we know about the slopes of PERPENDICULAR LINES?
    negative reciprocals (flip and change sign)

    for example a line with m=2 is perpendicular to a line with a slope of m=-1/2
  30. What is the Lateral Area of a Cone or a Cylinder?
    It is the "wrapper". It does not include the bases.

    The Lateral area formulas for BOTH the cone and the Cylinder are on your reference table.


    Note: To get the complete surface area you must add on the bases.
  31. How many degrees are in ANY quadrilateral?
    360
  32. Supplementary
    Adds to 180 degrees
  33. Complimentary Angles
    adds to 90
  34. Linear Pair
    Two angles who create a line (they add to 180)
  35. What does bisect mean?
    To cut in half

    (makes two EQUAL pieces)
  36. Similar Right Triangls
