|
Absolute Value
|
A number's distance form Zero on a number line
|
|
|
Altitude
|
A segment drawn from a vertex of a triangle and perpendicular to the opposite side or to the line containing the opposite side
|
|
|
Analytic Geometry
|
A branch of geometry in which points are represented with respect to a coordinate system, and in which the approach to geometric problems is primarily algebraic
|
|
|
Angle Bisector
|
A ray in the interior of an angle, whose endpoint is the vertex of that angle, and divides the angle into two congruent angles.
|
|
|
Arc
|
A continuous part of a circle between two points on the circle.
|
|
|
Binomial
|
A polymonial with two terms
|
|
|
Central Angle Of a Circle
|
An angle whose vertex is the center and whose sides are the radii of the circle.
|
|
|
Central Angle of a regular polygon
|
An angle whose vertex is the center and whose of its sides tangent to the circle
|
|
|
Circumscribed polygon
|
A ploygon that surrounds a circle with each of its sides tangents to the circle
|
|
|
Dependent Events
|
Two events in which the outcome of one event affects the outcome of the other event
|
|
|
Direct Proportion
|
Two quantities that always have a constant ratio. A direct variation is described by an equation of the form y=kx, where k is a constant not equal to zero.
|
|
|
Exponential function
|
An exponential function is a function that can be described by an equation of the form y=ax, where a>0 and does not equal 1
|
|
|
Inscribed angle
|
An angle whose vertex is on the circle and whose sides are chords of the circle.
|
|
|
Inscribed Polygon
|
A polygon surrounded by a circle, where each of its vertices fall on the circle.
|
|
|
Interquartile range
|
the difference between the first and third quartile.
|
|
|
Inverse Proportion
|
Two quantities that are inversely related. An inverse variation is described by the equation of the form xy=k or y=k/x, where k is a constant not equal to zero.
|
|
|
Irrational number
|
Numbers that cannot be written as a ratio of two integers. It is a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal.
|
|
|
Line of Best Fit (regression Line)
|
A line drawn on a scatter plot to best estimate the relationship between two sets of data.
|
|
|
Median (of a triangle)
|
A line segment that connects a vertex of a triangle to the midpoint of the side opposite that vertex.
|
|
|
Midpoint
|
The point on a line segment that is halfway between the endpoints of that segment
|
|
|
Monomial
|
A monomial is a number, a variable, or a product of a number and one or more wariables
|
|
|
Odds
|
the odds of an event occurring is the ratio of the number of ways the event can occur to the number of ways the event cannot occur.
|
|
|
Outlier
|
A value that is much greater or much less than the rest of the data in an outlier. More specifically it is an element of a set of data that is 1.5 interquartile ranges greater than the upper quartile or less than the lower quartile.
|
|
|
Polynomial
|
An algevraic expression that contains one or more monomials
|
|
|
Quadratic function
|
Equations which are expressed in the form y=ax +bx +c, where a is not equal to zero
|
|
|
Rational Number
|
A number that can be expressed as a ratio of two intgers. A rational number can be expressed in the form a/b, where a and b are integers and b is not equal to 0
|
|
|
Real number
|
the combined set of rational and irrational numbers.
|
|
|
Secant(of a circle)
|
A line that intersects a circle in exactly two points
|
|
|
Semicircle
|
An Arc of a circle whose endpoints are the endpoints of a diameter
|
|
|
Slope
|
The ratio of the change in the vertical distance to the change in the horizontal distance of two points on a line. Slope measures the steepness of a line from left to right. Rise over Run
|
|
|
Tangent (of a circle)
|
A line that touches a circle in exactly one point
|
|
|
Trinomial
|
A polymonial with three terms
|
