Geometry


Postulate 2-1


Through any 2 points there is exactly 1 line


Postulate 2-2


Through any 3 collinear points there its exactly 1 plane


Postulate 2-3


A line contains at least 2 points


Postulate 2-4


A plane contains at least 3 points, not all on the same line


Postulate 2-5


If 2 points lie on a plane, then the entire line containing those 2 points lies in that plane


Postulate 2-6


2 lines intersect in exactly one point


Postulate 2-7


2 planes intersect in a line


Midpoint Theorem


If M is mp of (segment) AB then (segment) AM is congruent to (segment) MB


Ruler Postulate


The points on any line or line segment can be paired with real numbers so that given any 2 points, A and B on a line, A corresponds to zero, and B corresponds to a positive real number


Segment Addition Postulate


If A, B and C are collinear and B is between A and C, then AB + BC= AC. If AB+BC=AC then B is between A and C.


Theorem 2.2


Congruence of segments is reflexive, symmetric & transitive


Protractor Postulate


Given (ray) AB and a number r between 0 and 180, there is exactly one ray with endpoint A, extending on either side of (ray) AB, such that the measure of the angle formed is r.


Angle Addition Postulate


If R is in the interior of <PQS then the m<PQR and the m<RQS= the m<PQS


Supplement Theorem


If 2 <'s form a linear pair, then they are supplemenetary


Complement Theorem


If the noncommon sides of 2 adjacent angles form a right angle, then the angles are complementary angles.


Theorem 2.6


Angles supplementary to the same angle or to congruent angles are congruent


Theorem 2.7


Angles complementary to the same angle or to congruent angles are congruent


Theorem 2.9


Perpendicular lines intersect to form 4 right anlges


Theorem 2.10


ALL right angles are congruent


Theorem 2.11


Perpendicular lines form congruent adjacent angles.


Theorem 2.12


If 2 <'s are congruent and supplementary, then each angle is a right angle


Theorem 2.13


If 2 congruent <'s form a linear pair, then they are right angles.


Vertical Angles's Theorem (2.8)


Vertical Angles are Congruent
