Chapter 11: The Geometry Of Three Dimensions Flashcards
dihedral angle
is the union of two half-planes with a common edge
Sphere
V= 4/3(pi)r2
Parallel planes
are planes that have no points in common
lateral area
of the prism is the sum of the areas of the lateral faces
pyramid
is a solid figure with a base that is a polygon and lateral faces that are triangles
regular pyramid
is a pyramid whose base is a regular polygon and whose altitude is perpendicular to the base at its center
Cone
V= 1/3(pi)r2h LA= (pi)rhs SA= (pi)r2 + (pi) rhs
Circular Cylinder
V=(pi) r2h
Total Surface Area= 2(pi)r2 + 2(pi)rh
Volume of a Pyramid
V= 1/3 BH
Volume of a Prism
V=BH
Postulates
There is one and only one plane containing three non-collinear points
A plane containing any two points contains all of the points on the line
determined by those two points
If two planes intersect, then they intersect in exactly one line
At a given point on a line, there are infinitely many lines perpendicular
to the given line
The volume of a prism is equal to the area of the base times the height
Skew lines
are lines in space that are neither parallel nor intersecting
