Term
Ruler Postulate
Definition
1. The points on a line can be paired with the real numbers in such a way that any two points can have coordinantes 0 and 1.
2. Once a coordinate system has been chosen in this way, the distance between any two points equals the absolute value of the difference of their coordinates. Pg. 12
Term

Protractor Postulate
Definition
On line AB in a given plane, choose any point 0 between A and B. Consider line OA and line OB and all the rays that can be drawn from o on one side of line AB. These rays can be paired with the real numbers from 0 to 180 in such a way that:
a. Line OA is paired with 0, and line OB with 180.
b. If line OB is paired with x, and line OQ with y, then m ‹ POQ = ǀx-yǀ Pg. 18
Term
Angle Addition
Postulate
Definition
If point B lines in the interior of <AOC, then
m< AOB + m< BOC = m< AOC
If < AOC is a straight angle and B is any point not on line AC, then
m< AOC + m< BOC = 180 Pg. 18
Term

Angle
Definition
The ray that divides that angle inot two congruent adjacent angles.
Pg. 19
Term
