Please match the following vocabulary words to the correct definitions. (6 points)
1 Collinear
2 Perpendicular
3 Complementary
4 Supplementary
5 Bisector
6 Coplanar
1 Collinear: Points that lie on the same straight line.
2 Perpendicular: Two lines that intersect at a right angle.
3 Complementary: Two angles whose sum is 90 degrees.
4 Supplementary: Two angles whose sum is 180 degrees.
5 Bisector: A line, segment, or ray that divides something into two equal parts.
6 Coplanar: Points or lines that lie within the same plane.
1. Collinear - A term used to describe points that lie on the same line.
2. Perpendicular - A term used to describe lines or line segments that meet or intersect at a right angle (90 degrees).
3. Complementary - A term used to describe two angles that add up to 90 degrees.
4. Supplementary - A term used to describe two angles that add up to 180 degrees.
5. Bisector - A term used to describe a line or line segment that divides another line or angle into two equal parts.
6. Coplanar - A term used to describe points or lines that lie within the same plane.
To match the vocabulary words to their correct definitions, we can use the process of elimination and knowledge of their meanings.
1. Collinear: Points that lie on the same straight line.
2. Perpendicular: Lines that intersect at a right angle.
3. Complementary: Angles that add up to 90 degrees.
4. Supplementary: Angles that add up to 180 degrees.
5. Bisector: A line or line segment that divides another line or line segment into two equal parts.
6. Coplanar: Points or lines that lie in the same plane.
By process of elimination, we can determine the correct matches as follows:
1. Collinear: Points that lie on the same straight line.
2. Perpendicular: Lines that intersect at a right angle.
3. Complementary: Angles that add up to 90 degrees.
4. Supplementary: Angles that add up to 180 degrees.
5. Bisector: A line or line segment that divides another line or line segment into two equal parts.
6. Coplanar: Points or lines that lie in the same plane.
So the correct matches are:
1. Collinear - Points that lie on the same straight line.
2. Perpendicular - Lines that intersect at a right angle.
3. Complementary - Angles that add up to 90 degrees.
4. Supplementary - Angles that add up to 180 degrees.
5. Bisector - A line or line segment that divides another line or line segment into two equal parts.
6. Coplanar - Points or lines that lie in the same plane.
