Jasmine- Geometric Figures
Adam- Surface area, volume, pythagorean theorem
Kylie- Area and Perimeter
-a simple closed surface given by a polygon (its base) and a point not in the plane of the polygon, called its apex or vertex.
-the pyrmaid is the union of the base with all of the triangular faces that rise from the base edges to the apex.
*Polyhedron determined by polygon ( example. rectangular base = rectangular pyramid)
*points not in the plane
*does not have two congruent faces
Prism - a simple closed surface that consists of two congruent polygons which are in parallel planes (bases) and the lateral faces joining the bases, which are parallelograms
* Two congruent faces (the bases)
*Have to be parallel planes
*other faces are bound by parallelograms
two dimensionsal vs. three dimensional:
- a prism is three dimensional and belongs on two planes in space, whereas a two dimensional figure only has one plane.
oblique prism
the edges between the bases are not perpendicular to the plane of the base
right prism
if the lateral faces of a prism are all rectangles
in a regular n-gon ( n = number of sides)
(x = multiply)
- each interior angles has a measure (n - 2) x 180 degrees/ n
- each exterior angle has measure 360 degrees / n
- each central angle has measure 360 degrees / n
polygons that include some degree of symmetry
Regular polygon- a convex polygon that is both equiangular and equilateral
equilateral- a polygon with all congruent sides
equiangular- a polygon with all equal angles
- a circle is a two- dimensional shape (mathisfun.com)
-the set of all points that are an equal distance from the center
A quadilateral means "four sides" so is any four sided shape
Classification by side lengths
Isosceles
When two sides have the same length
Equilateral
all three sides have the same length and are congruent
Scalene
all three sides have a different length
( no two sides are congruent)
Classification by angle measure
Obtuse
if one angle has a measure more than 90 degrees.
Right
one angle is a right angle (90 degrees)
Acute
all three interior angles are less than 90 degrees
Definition of an Angle: A shape, formed by two lines or rays diverging from a common point known as the vertex.
( www.mathopenref.com )
< = angle
the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.
- the number of degrees of turn to rotate about the vertex (middle point)
-Measured in degrees
Classification of angles
Corresponding angles
corresponding angles property:
- when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal (intersecting line), then their corresponding angles have the same measure
-if two lines in the plane are intersected by a transversal and some pair of their corresponding angles has the same measures, then the lines are parallel
Alternate-exterior-Angles
The pair of angles on the opposite sides of the transversal but outside the two lines (mathisfun.com).
Alternate- Interior- Angles
The pair of sides on the opposite of the transversal, but inside the two lines (mathisfun.com).
Vertical angles
- vertical angles are congruent
Two nonadjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines
Congruent angles
When two angles are congruent, they are also equal !
when two angles have the same exact measure
Complimentary angles
when the sum of two angles measure 90 degrees.
Supplementary angles
when the sum of two angles measure 180 degrees
-The Pythagorean Theorem is an equation devised to find the slope opposite the 90 degree angle or right Triangles. A^2 + B^2 = C^2 is the relationship between the sides of the triangle in regard to length.
-This equation only works on right triangles
- A is the height, B is the width and C is the length of the slope.
