|
|
What is a Translation?
|
A slide without turning or flipping
|
|
What is a Rotation?
|
A turn about a center point
|
|
What is a Reflection?
|
Flipping an image over a reflecting line
|
|
What is a Tessellation?
|
Using congruent shapes over and over to cover a flat surface.
|
|
What polygons Tessellate?
|
Triangles, Quadrilaterals, Regular Hexagons and others
|
|
What polygons do NOT Tessellate?
|
Regular Pentagons and most shapes with 7 or more sides
|
|
What is Perpendicular?
|
Two lines that meet at a right (90 degree) angle
|
|
What is a right angle?
|
90 degrees
|
|
What is an acute angle?
|
less than 90 degrees
|
|
What is an obtuse angle?
|
More than 90 degrees
|
|
How many degrees make a straight line?
|
180
|
|
What is a linear pair?
|
Two angles right next to each other that form a straight line and add to 180 degrees.
|
|
What is supplementary?
|
ANY two angles that add up to 180 degrees.
|
|
What are vertical angles?
|
Two angles that are across from each other when you see an X. They are always congruent
|
|
What does congruent mean?
|
Exactly the same shape and size
|
|
What is n-fold rotational symmetry?
|
The number of times you can turn a shape and it looks exactly the same. To find the degree of rotation take 360 ÷ n.
|
|
What are exterior angles?
|
On the outside of the parallel lines
|
|
What are interior angles?
|
On the inside of the parallel lines
|
|
What are alternate interior angles?
|
On the inside and jump across the line. They are congruent.
|
|
What are alternate exterior angles?
|
They are outside of the parallel lines and jump across the lines. They are congruent.
|
|
What are Corresponding angles?
|
Angles in the same location that are congruent. Ex. above the parallel lines and to the left of the other line.
|
|
What is the symbol for parallel?
|
ll
|
|
In a parallelogram what are the opposite sides?
|
Straight across and are congruent.
|
|
In a parallelogram, what are the opposite angles?
|
Straight across and are congruent.
|
|
In a parallelogram, what are consecutive angles?
|
The angles on the same side and they are supplementary.
|
|
How many symmetry lines does a parallelogram have?
|
none
|
|
What kind of rotation symmetry does a parallelogram have?
|
2-fold which is 180 degree
|
|
What is a rhombus?
|
a special parallelogram with all equal sides (looks like a diamond)
|
|
What is a rectangle?
|
a special parallelogram with all right angles
|
|
What is a square?
|
A special parallelogram with all equal sides and all right angles. It has 4 symmetry lines and 90 degree rotational symmetry.
|
|
How do you find distance on a number line?
|
subtract and make your answer positive
|
|
How do you find distance between two points (x,y) and (x,y)?
|
Take the square root of the
(x-distance)^2 + (y-distance)^2 |
|
What do all the angles in a triangle always add up to?
|
180 degrees
|
|
What do all the angles in a quadrilateral (four sides) add up to?
|
360 degrees
|
