Card 1
Question: Complete the statement: The line drawn from the midpoint of one side of a triangle, parallel to the second side, ... (finish the sentence).
Answer: ...bisects the third side (i.e., it passes through the midpoint of the third side).
Card 2
Question: In triangle ACS, P on AS and R on AC form parallelogram PSRQ. If PQ meets AC at B and B is the midpoint of AR, and CR = PS, what relation can help fin
Answer: Use properties of parallelograms (opposite sides equal and parallel) and midpoint results: B midpoint of AR implies symmetry; CR = PS and given angle
Card 3
Question: Given the same ACS configuration with ∠C1 = 50° and BP = 60 mm, how would you determine the length of QP?
Answer: Use parallelogram side equalities (QP = SR = PS = CR) and midpoint/segment relations from B to compute QP from given BP and geometry. (Answer: deduce
Card 4
Question: State the parallelogram property used to prove DJ || BK in the diagram where ABCD is a parallelogram, E on AB and F on DC with AE = CF, DE extended to
Answer: Corresponding triangles formed by equal segments and parallel sides show DJ and BK are parallel; use equal alternate interior angles from the parallel
Card 5
Question: In the same parallelogram setup, how do you show angle Ei equals angle Fi (notation: Êi = Fî)?
Answer: Show corresponding triangles are congruent or similar due to AE = CF and parallelogram parallel sides, giving equal corresponding interior angles at E
Card 6
Question: In a circle with center O and points A and B on the circumference, if AP = BP (P on chord AB), what does this tell you about AT and BT (with T on AB)?
Answer: AT = BT (equal tangents or equal segments from symmetric construction), deduced from equal radii and isosceles triangle properties.
Card 7
Question: In the same circle, why is angle O T Λ = 90° (i.e., OT ⟂ AB at T)?
Answer: Radius to point of tangency is perpendicular to the tangent; OT is perpendicular to AB so ∠OTΛ = 90°.
Card 8
Question: In a rhombus KLMN with diagonals intersecting at O and given ∠LKM = 34°, what is the size of angle O1 (the angle at O corresponding to ∠LKM)?
Answer: Diagonals of a rhombus bisect angles, so ∠O1 = half of ∠LKM = 17°.
Card 9
Question: In the same rhombus, how do you find ∠Ly (angle at L)?
Answer: Since ∠LKM = 34° is one vertex angle, and adjacent angles in a rhombus are supplementary, ∠L = 180° - 34° = 146°. If needed, use diagonal bisection to
Card 10
Question: In the same rhombus, how to calculate ∠KNM?
Answer: Opposite angles are equal and diagonals bisect them; use known angles to deduce ∠KNM = 34° (or use supplementary relations depending on labeling).
