A summary of various postulates and theorems in geometry, focusing on linear pairs, vertical angles, parallel lines, and alternate angles. It includes labeled illustrations and statements of theorems, such as the linear pair postulate, vertical angles theorem, parallel line postulate, and alternate interior and exterior angles theorems. The document also includes the converses of some theorems and if-and-only-if statements.

Toolkit/Summary Notes 1.
Names of Postulates and Theorem (if exist) Postulates and Theorems Labeled Illustrations Linear Pair Postulate If two angles form a linear pair, then they are supplementary *supplementary means sums to 180. *linear pair means they form a line. Angle 1 and angle 2 Angle 2 and angle 3 Angle 3 and angle 4 Angle 4 and angle 1 Vertical Angles Theorem Vertical Angles meet at a vertex but are on opposite sides of the intersecting lines(definition) Theorem – If two lines intersect then vertical angles are congruent Angle 2, and Angle 4 are vertical angles Angle 1 and Angle 3 are vertical angles Corollary — resulting property from a given proof: If two lines form a linear pair of angles having equal measure, then the lines are perpendicular.
