C-1 Linear Pair Conjecture
If two angles form a linear pair, then the measures of the angles add up to 
180°
Question 2
C-2 Vertical Angles Conjecture
If two angles are vertical angles, then they are congruent (have equal 
measures)
C-3a Corresponding Angles Conjecture (CA)
If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then 
corresponding angles are congruent
Question 4
C-3b Alternate Interior Angles Conjecture (AIA)
If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then 
alternate interior angles are congruent
Question 5
C-3c Alternate Exterior Angles Conjecture (AEA) 


If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then 
alternate exterior angles are congruent
C-3 Parallel Lines Conjecture
If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then corresponding angles are 
congruent, alternate interior angles are congruent, and alternate exterior angles are congruent
C-4 Converse of the Parallel Lines Conjecture
If two lines are cut by a transversal to form pairs of 
congruent corresponding angles, congruent alternate interior angles, or congruent alternate exterior 
angles, then the lines are parallel
C-5 Perpendicular Bisector Conjecture
If a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant from the endpoints
C-6 Converse of the Perpendicular Bisector Conjecture
If a point is equidistant from the endpoints of a 
segment, then it is on the perpendicular bisector of the segment
C-7 Shortest Distance Conjecture
The shortest distance from a point to a line is measured along the perpendicular segment from the point to the line
C-8 Angle Bisector Conjecture
If a point is on the bisector of an angle, then it is equidistant from the sides of the angle
C-9 Angle Bisector Concurrency Conjecture
The three angle bisectors of a triangle are concurrent (meet at a point)
C-10 Perpendicular Bisector Concurrency Conjecture
The three perpendicular bisectors of a triangle are concurrent
C-11 Altitude Concurrency Conjecture
The three altitudes (or the lines containing the altitudes) of a triangle are concurrent
C-12 Circumcenter Conjecture
The circumcenter of a triangle is equidistant from the vertices
