Definition List

Acute triangle
- is a triangle with all three angles less than 90 degrees.
Altitude
- An altitude of a triangle is a line segment connecting a vertex to the line containing the opposite side and perpendicular to that side.
Angle bisector
- An angle bisector is a ray that cuts the angle exactly in half, making two equal angles.
Central angle
- A central angle is an angle with its vertex at the center of a circle.
Circumcenter
- The circumcenter of a triangle is the point where the three perpendicular bisectors meet. This point is the same distance from each of the three vertices of the triangles.
Diameter
- A circle's diameter is a segment that passes through the center and has its endpoints on the circle.
Equilateral triangle
- An equilateral triangle is a triangle with three equal sides.
Hypotenuse
- The hypotenuse in a right triangle is the side of the triangle that is opposite to the right angle.
Inscribed angle
- An inscribed angle is an angle whose vertex is on a circle and whose rays intersect the circle.
Kite
- A kite is a quadrilateral that has two pairs of adjacent sides congruent (the same length).
