Geometry Cheat Sheet: Segment Addition Postulate - If Three Points A, B, and C Are Collinear and B Is Between A

Geometry Cheat Sheet
Chapter 1
 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
Angle Addition Postulate - If point B is in the interior of AOC, then
m AOB + m BOC = m AOC.
 Adjacent Angles - two coplanar angles with a common side, a common vertex, and no
common interior points.
 Vertical Angles - two angles whose sides are opposite rays.
 Complementary Angles - two angles whose measures have a sum of 90. Each angle is
called the complement of the other.
 Supplementary Angles - two angles whose measures have a sum of 180. Each angle is
called the supplement of the other.
 Postulate 1-9 Linear Pair Postulates - If two angles form a linear pair, then they are
supplementary.
 Angle Bisector - a ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles. Its endpoint is at
the angle vertex within the ray, a segment with the same endpoint is also an angle
bisector.
Constructions
 Constructing Congruent Segments –
 Step One: Draw a ray with endpoint C.
 Step Two: Open the compass to the length of AB.
 Step Three: With the same compass setting, put the compass point on point C. Draw an
arc that intersects the ray. Label the point of intersection D.
 Constructing Congruent Angles –
 Step One: Draw a ray with endpoint S.
 Step Two: With the compass on vertex A, draw an arc that intersects the sides of A.
Label the points of intersection B and C.
 Step Three: With the same compass setting, put the compass point on point S. Draw an
arc and label its point of intersection with the ray as R.
 Step Four: Open the compass to the length BC. Keeping the same compass setting, put
the compass point on R. Draw an arc to locate point T.
 Step Five: Draw ST
 Constructing the Perpendicular Bisector –
 Step One: Put the compass on point A and draw a long arc. Be sure the opening is
greater than ½ AB.
 Step Two: With the same compass setting, put the compass point on point B and draw
another long arc. Label the points where the two arcs intersect as X and Y.
 Step Three: Draw XY. Label the point of intersection of AB and XY as M, the midpoint of
AB.
 Constructing the Angle Bisector –
 Step One: Put the compass point on vertex A. Draw an arc that intersects the sides of
A. Label the points of intersection B and C.
 Step Two: Put the compass on point C and draw an arc. With the same compass
setting, draw an arc using point B. Be sure the arcs intersect. Label the point where the
two arcs intersect at D.
 Step Three: Draw AD.
