Just how it sounds, an unmarked tool used to draw straight lines.
sufficient condition
Mathematics; Geometry
A version of a conditional that tells you when you can use the term defined, where the term is in the consequent; a condition that implies a preset conclusion; see meaning.
supplementary angles
Mathematics; Geometry
2 angles whose measures, when added together, equal 180 degrees.
similar figures
Mathematics; Geometry
Two figures that have a similarity transformation mapping one onto the other; written F~G.
similarity transformation
Mathematics; Geometry
A transformation that is the composite of size changes and/or reflections.
size change
Mathematics; Geometry
Let A be a point and k be a positive real number. For any point B, let T(B) = B' be the point on with OP' = K*OP. Then S is the size change with center A and magnitude k. See transformation.
