geometry applications

Question 1

Total surface area

Answer 1

The sum of all of the areas of all faces of a solid object

Question 2

Volume

Answer 2

measure of the total three-dimensional space contained inside an object

Question 3

Origin

Answer 3

The point of intersection of the x-axis and y-axis of a coordinate plane, often designated as (0,0)

Question 4

Net

Answer 4

a two-dimensional representation or pattern for a three-dimensional object

Question 5

ordered pairs

Answer 5

Representations in the form (x, y) of points in the coordinate plane

Question 6

collinear

Answer 6

lying on the same line

Question 6

quadrant

Answer 6

One of the 4 areas bounded by the x-axis and y-axis of a coordinate plane

Question 7

plane

Answer 7

an infinite “surface” with no thickness that extends infinitely in all directions

Question 8

surface area

Answer 8

The area of the outside surface of a three-dimensional object

Question 8

area

Answer 8

the amount of surface inside of a figure

Question 9

Lateral surface area

Answer 9

The sum of the areas of all faces excluding the base(s) of a solid object

Question 10

Angle

Answer 10

the figure formed by the intersection of two rays, lines, or line segments, or else by two rays with a common endpoint

Question 11

obtuse angle

Answer 11

an angle measuring between 90° and 180°

Question 12

right angle

Answer 12

An angle measuring exactly 90°, such as the corner of a piece of paper.

All right angles are congruent

Question 12

vertical angles

Answer 12

The pair of opposite angles created when two lines (or line segments) intersect.

The angles are congruent (equal).

Question 13

Dimensional Analysis / Unit Analysis

Answer 13

the process of converting within or between systems by multiplying by factors of 1 in various forms

Question 14

vertex

Answer 14

a point where two rays, lines, or line segments meet, such as the point where two rays, lines, or line segments intersect to form an angle

Question 15

acute angle

Answer 15

an angle measuring between 0° and 90°

Question 15

straight angle

Answer 15

an angle measuring exactly 180°

Question 16

alternate exterior angles

Answer 16

If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the alternate exterior angles are congruent.

Question 17

supplementary angles

Answer 17

two angles that sum to 180°

Question 18

corresponding angles

Answer 18

If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, the pairs of corresponding angles are congruent.

Question 19

coordinate plane

Answer 19

A plane, often divided into a grid, with a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis that intersect at the origin

Question 20

complimentary angles

Answer 20

two angles that sum to 90°

Question 21

perimeter

Answer 21

the distance around the outside of a figure

Question 22

reflex angle

Answer 22

an angle measuring between 180° and 360°

Question 22

coplanar

Answer 22

lying on the same plane

Question 22

alternate interior angles

Answer 22

If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the alternate interior angles are congruent

Question 23

point

Answer 23

a location in space without any dimension

Question 24

line

Answer 24

an infinite set of points arranged “straight” in opposing directions, with infinite length and no thickness
