What does the Pythagorean theorem state about a right triangle with legs a and b and hypotenuse c?
Backa² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle).
- 2Front
What are the three undefined terms in Euclidean geometry?
BackPoint, line, and plane. They are accepted without formal definition and serve as the foundation for all other geometric concepts.
- 3Front
What is the SAS (Side-Angle-Side) triangle congruence postulate?
BackIf two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
- 4Front
What condition distinguishes triangle similarity from triangle congruence?
BackSimilar triangles have equal corresponding angles and proportional corresponding sides, while congruent triangles have equal corresponding angles AND equal corresponding sides.
- 5Front
What is the formula for the area of a circle with radius r?
BackA = πr²
- 6Front
What is the relationship between a central angle and its intercepted arc in a circle?
BackA central angle is equal in measure to its intercepted arc (e.g., a 60° central angle intercepts a 60° arc).
- 7Front
What is the formula for the volume of a sphere with radius r?
BackV = (4/3)πr³
- 8Front
How is the slope of a line calculated in coordinate geometry given two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂)?
BackSlope m = (y₂ − y₁) / (x₂ − x₁), provided x₂ ≠ x₁.
- 9Front
What does the AA (Angle-Angle) similarity postulate state?
BackIf two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.

What is the formula for the volume of a right circular cylinder with radius r and height h?
BackV = πr²h
