pyramid

polyhedra whose base is a polygon and whose faces are triangles that have a common vertex (called apex), named according to base
|
|
regular polyhedron
|
convex polyhedron in which the faces are congruent regular polygons and in which the numbers of edges that meet at each vertex are the same

translation descriptions
|
1. taxicab = 3 east 4 west
2. notation = (x,y)->(x+3,y+4) 3. distance and angle = 5 units at 54* from from x-axis 4. vectors = length and direction |
|
translation
|
transformation on a plane determined by moving each point in the figure the same distance in the same direction
|
|
reflection
|
transformation that maps a figure so that a line, called the line of reflection, is the perpendicular bisector of every line segment joining a point on the figure and the corresponding point on the reflected figure
|
|
rotation
|
transformation on a plane about a point by a certain number of degrees in a specific direction
|
|
composite transformation
|
any combination of transformations (including glide reflection)
|
|
glide reflection
|
translation then reflection, translation vector and line of reflection parallel
|
|
the order of two reflections doesn't matter if...
|
the lines intersect at right angles (not parallel)
|
|
congruent (new)
|
a translation, reflection, rotation, or glide reflection that maps one figure onto another
|
|
fundamental domain/region
