Geometry Constructions, Ratios, and Plane Relationships Quiz

Point

A location that has no shape or size.

Line

A straight arrangement of points that has no thickness or width.

Collinear Points

Points that lie on the same line.

Non-Collinear Points

Points that do NOT lie on the same line.

Plane

A flat surface that extends indefinitely in all directions.

Coplanar Points

Points that lie on the same plane.

Non-Coplanar Points

Points that do NOT lie on the same plane.

Segment Addition Postulate

If point O lies on segment FA, then FO + OC = FA.

Intersecting Lines

Two lines that cross at a point.

Intersecting Planes

Two planes that intersect at a line.

Directed Line Segment

A segment that has a direction associated with it, often used to partition segments in a ratio.

Ratio

A relationship between two quantities, often expressed as a fraction.

Coordinates

A set of values that show an exact position, typically in the form (x, y).

Perpendicular Lines

Lines that intersect to form a right angle (90°).

Length of a Segment

The distance between two endpoints of a segment.

Partitioning a Segment

Dividing a segment into parts based on a specified ratio.

Construction Processes

Methods used to create geometric figures using a compass and straightedge.

Value of x in an Equation

The solution to an equation that makes it true.

True or False Statements

Statements that can be evaluated as either correct or incorrect.

Coordinates of a Point

The specific values that define the location of a point in a coordinate system.

Ratio of QR to RS

A specific relationship expressed as 2:3 in the context of points R, Q, and S.
