1.4 Segments & Their Measure

This section delves into line segments, their properties, and the Segment Addition Postulate. It also introduces the concept of congruent segments and the Ruler Postulate.

Definition: The Segment Addition Postulate states that if point B is between points A and C on a line, then AB + BC = AC.

Vocabulary:

  • Congruent segments: Segments that have the same length
  • Midpoint: A point that divides a segment into two congruent segments

The section provides several examples of applying the Segment Addition Postulate to solve problems involving segment lengths.

Example: If MP is 47 units long, and MN = 5x + 1 and NP = 11x - 2, find the values of MN and NP.

Highlight: The Ruler Postulate establishes a one-to-one correspondence between points on a line and real numbers, allowing us to measure distances between points.

1.5 Angles & Their Measure

This section introduces angles, their components, and classification based on their measures. It also covers the Angle Addition Postulate and provides examples of angle calculations.

Definition: An angle consists of two different rays with a common endpoint called the vertex. The interior of an angle contains all points between its two sides.

Vocabulary:

  • Acute angle: An angle measuring less than 90°
  • Right angle: An angle measuring exactly 90°
  • Obtuse angle: An angle measuring more than 90° but less than 180°
  • Straight angle: An angle measuring exactly 180°

Example: The Angle Addition Postulate states that if P is in the interior of ∠ABC, then m∠ABC = m∠ABP + m∠PBC.

Highlight: Understanding different types of angle classifications is essential for solving geometric problems and constructing proofs.

1.6 Angle Pairs

This section explores various types of angle pairs and their relationships. It introduces important concepts such as adjacent angles, vertical angles, and complementary and supplementary angles.

Vocabulary:

  • Adjacent angles: Two angles that share a common side and vertex with no interior points in common
  • Vertical angles: Two angles whose sides form opposite rays
  • Linear pair: Two adjacent angles whose non-common sides are opposite rays
  • Complementary angles: Two angles whose measures have a sum of 90°
  • Supplementary angles: Two angles whose measures have a sum of 180°
  • Angle bisector: A ray that divides an angle into two congruent adjacent angles

Example: If two angles form a linear pair and one angle measures 69°, while the other is expressed as 5x - 46°, find the value of x.

Highlight: Recognizing and understanding these angle relationships is crucial for solving more complex geometric problems and proofs.

1.7 Midpoint and Distance Formulas

This section introduces formulas for finding midpoints on a number line and in the coordinate plane, as well as the distance formula for calculating the distance between two points.

Definition: The midpoint formula for a line segment AB with endpoints (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is: Midpoint = ((x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2)

Example: Find the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints at (3, -2) and (10, -6).

The distance formula is also introduced:

Definition: The distance between two points A(x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂) is: d = √((x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²)

Highlight: These formulas are essential tools for solving problems in coordinate geometry and are frequently used in more advanced geometric concepts.

Distance Formula Applications

This final section focuses on applying the distance formula to solve various geometric problems in the coordinate plane.

Example: Find the distance between the points (6, -4) and (11, -5).

The section provides step-by-step solutions to distance problems, reinforcing the application of the formula in different scenarios.

Highlight: Mastering the distance formula is crucial for analyzing geometric figures in the coordinate plane and solving real-world problems involving distances between points.

1.3 Points, Lines, & Planes

This section introduces fundamental geometric terms and undefined concepts in geometry. It covers the basic building blocks of geometric figures and their properties.

Definition: Points, lines, and planes are considered undefined terms in geometry as they are the most basic concepts from which all other geometric ideas are built.

Vocabulary:

  • Coplanar points: Points that lie on the same plane
  • Colinear points: Points that lie on the same line

The section also introduces important geometric postulates:

  1. Through any two points, there is exactly one line.
  2. If two distinct lines intersect, they intersect at exactly one point.
  3. If two distinct planes intersect, they intersect in exactly one line.
  4. Through any three noncollinear points, there is exactly one plane.

Example: A point has no dimension but has a location. A line extends infinitely in both directions and has one dimension (length). A plane extends infinitely in two dimensions (length and width) without thickness.

Highlight: Understanding these undefined concepts in geometry is crucial for building a strong foundation in geometric reasoning and proofs.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

Knowunity is the BEST app I’ve used in a minute. This is not an ai review or anything this is genuinely coming from a 7th grade student (I know 2011 im young) but dude this app is a 10/10 i have maintained a 3.8 gpa and have plenty of time for gaming. I love it and my mom is just happy I got good grades

Not only did it help me find the answer but it also showed me alternative ways to solve it. I was horrible in math and science but now I have an a in both subjects. Thanks for the help🤍🤍

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend
