pythargoram theorem only works with
right angle triangles
angles at a point
the sum of the sizes of the angles at a point is 360
supplementary angles/adjacent angles on a straight line
the sum of the angles on a straight line is 180
adjacent angles in a right angle
the sum of the angles in a right angle triangle is 90
vertically opposite angles
vertically opposite angles are always equal
corresponding angle F
when two parallel lines are cut by a third line the corresponding positions are equal in size.
alternate angles Z
when two parallel angles are cut by a third line the angles on either side of the two non parallel lines are equal
co - interior angles C
when two parallel lines are cut by a third line the co - interior angles add to 180
sum of interior angles in a triangle
the sum of all interior angles of a triangle equal 180
exterior angles in a triangle
the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the exterior opposite angle
sum of interior angles in a quadrilateral
the sum of all interior angles in a quadrilateral is 360
equation for sum of interior angles
x being number of sides
(x - 2) x 180
vertex (vertices)
intersections/corners of a shape
polygon
a two - dimensional enclosed figure made by joining three or more straight lines
regular polygon
when all the sides of interior angles are equal
median
a line segment that connects a vertex of a triangle to the mid point of the opposite side
tangent
a line that touches the curve or surface of a circle for only a point and does not cross it
altitude
the highest height of a shape
