    Unit 1 study guide Tools of Geometry

    Vocabulary check: Define the following terms and draw a sketch (if it applies). Complementary and supplementary angles : two angles that add up to 90 degrees/ two angles

    that add up to 180 degrees

    Collinear : points that lie on the same line

    Coplanar : points that lie on the same plane

    Adjacent angles : angles that share a side

    Vertical angles : angles across from each other

    Linear pair of angles : two angles that form a line

    Bisector : divides an angle in half

    Orthographic drawing : two-dimensional unfolded drawing of a three-dimensional object

    Isometric drawing : three-dimensional looking drawing using dots; each dot is a corner of the

    object

    Constructions: Below, construct an angle bisector and a perpendicular bisector. Write your steps off to

    the side of the construction.

    Angle bisector

    The drawing will be in another document.

    Steps : 1. Draw an angle 2. Place the compass point on the angles vertex. 3. Adjust the compass to a medium setting. 4. Keeping the compass width the same, draw an arc that crosses each leg of the angle. 5. Next, place the compass on the point where one arc crosses a leg and draw an arc on the inside of the angle. 6. Without changing the compass setting, repeat for the other leg so that the two arcs cross. 7. Using a straightedge or ruler, draw a line from the vertex to the point where the arcs cross. Now you have an angle bisector!

    Perpendicular bisector

    The drawing will be in another document. Steps : 1. Draw a line segment. 2. Place the compass point on one end of the line. 3. Adjust the compass to just over half the line length. 4. Without adjusting the compass width, draw an arc on each side of the line. 5. Keeping the compass length the same, place your compass on the other side of the line and draw two more arcs so that there are intersecting arcs on both sides of the line. 6. Draw a straight line between the two arc intersections.

    You now have a perpendicular bisector!

    1. Use the number line below.
