Q

Inductive Reasoning

A

Is reasoning that is based on patterns you observe. If you observe a pattern in a sequence you can use inductive reasoning to tell what the next term in the sequence will be

15
Q

Opposite Rays

A

Two collinear rays with the same endpoint. Also they always form a line

16
Q

Parallel lines

A

Lines that do not intersect

17
Q

Skew line

A

Non-Coplanar not parallel and do not intersect

18
Q

Parallel plane

A

Planes that do no intersect a line and a plane that do not intersect are also parallel

19
Q

Postulate 1-5 ruler postulate

A

The points of a line can be put into one to one correspondence with the real numbers so that the distance between any two points is the absolute value of the difference of the corresponding number

20
Q

Postulate 1-6 Segment Addition

A

If three points A,B, and C are collinear and B is between A and C ten AB + Bc = AC

21
Q

Coordinate

A

Distance from the origin

22
Q

Congruent

A

Two segments with the same length

23
Q

Midpoint of segment

A

A point that divides the segment into two congruent segments. A midpoint or any line, ray of other segment through a midpoint, is said to have bisect the segment

24
Q

Postulate 1-7 protractor postulate

A

Let OA(Ray) and OB(Ray) be opposite rays in a plane. OA and OB an all the rays with a endpoint of O that can be drawn on one side of AB( Line) can be paired with the real numbers from 0-180 so that OA is paired with 0 and Ob is paired with 180 . If OC is with x and OD with Y then m<COD = |x-y|

25
Q
