Hachie Chapter 1 2014 2015 Flashcards
To memorize the postulates and theorems of nit 1
Postulate #1
Through any two points, there is exactly one line segment
Postulate #1-2
If two lines intersect, then they intersect in exactly one point
Postulate #1-3
If two planes intersect, then they intersect in exactly one line
Postulate #1-4
Through any three noncollinear points, there is exactly one plane
Postulate #1-5: The Ruler Postulate
Points on a line can be paired with real numbers and distance between the two points can be found by finding the absolute value of the difference between the numbers. d=|a-b|
Postulate #1-6: Segment Addition Postulate
If three points, A, B, and C are collinear and B is between A and C, then AB + BC = AC
Postulate #1-7: Protractor Postulate
Give line AB with point O between A and B, Consider ray OA and ray OB and any other rays that can be drawn with O as the endpoint on one side of line AB. These rays can be paired with the numbers from 0 degrees to 180 degrees and can be used to measure angles.
Postulate #1-8: Angle Addition Postulate
If point B is in the interior of angle AOC, then the measure of angle AOB + the measure of angle BOC = the measure of angle AOC
Distance Formula
The distance between two points is the square root of the sum of the difference of the x-coordinates squared and the difference of the y-coordinates squared
Midpoint Formula
The coordinates of the midpoint can be found by finding the mean of the x-coordinates and the mean of the y-coordinates
Postulate #4
All right angles are congruent
Postulate #2
Any straight line segment can be extended indefinitely in a straight line.
Postulate #3
Given any straightline segment, acirclecan be drawn having the segment asradiusand one endpoint as center.
Postulate #5: The Parallel Postulate
If two lines are drawn whichintersecta third in such a way that the sum of the inner angles on one side is less than tworight angles, then the two lines inevitably mustintersecteach other on that side if extended far enough.
Postulate #1-4A
A line and a plane intersect at exactly one point.
