This resource covers essential geometric concepts including types of triangles, quadrilaterals, and angles, along with key definitions such as midpoint, perimeter, and bisector. Students will engage with practice problems that involve the use of postulates to prove congruence in triangles, and explore distance and midpoint calculations on the coordinate plane. Definitions for decagons, rhombuses, acute angles, and more are provided, along with various geometry problems and their solutions to effectively reinforce understanding of these mathematical concepts.
