Bisector: A line or segment that divides another figure into two congruent parts. Circle: A set of all points in a plane that are a given distance from a point identified as the center. Complementary Angles: Two angles that add up to 90°. Congruent Angles: Two angles with exactly the same degree measure. Congruent Segments: Two segments with exactly the same length. Congruent Triangles: Two triangles are congruent if and only if their corresponding parts are congruent: Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent (CPCTC).
