28
sum of 3 angles of a triangle
180°
29
sum of 4 angles of a quadrilateral
360°
30
rotation
spin around a fixed point full turn = 360° 1/2 turn = 180° 1/4 turn = 90° 1/3 turn = 120° 1/6 turn = 60° 1/8 turn = 45°
31
translation
slide along a straight line
32
reflection
flip over a line
33
magnification
increase or decrease in size
34
corresponding angles
angles that are in the same position in congruent or similar figures
35
coordinate plane
formed by a horizontal line (x-axis) that intersects a vertical line (y-axis)
36
coordinates (x, y)
the numbers in an ordered pair that describe the location of a point in the coordinate plane
37
origin
the point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect (0, 0)
38
parallel
lines that will never intersect
39
perpendicular
lines that intersect at exactly 90°
40
transversal
a line that cuts across a pair of parallel lines
41
alternate angles
angles on opposite sides of a transversal, they are always congruent
42
adjacent angles
side by side, have a common vertex and a common ray, if they are along a straight line, they add up to 180˚
43
interior angles
angles that are inside the parallel lines
44
exterior angles
angles that are outside the parallel lines
45
vertical angles
opposite one another at the intersection of two lines, they are always congruent
46
supplementary angles
two angles that add up to 180˚
47
complementary angles
two angles that add up to 90˚
48
perimeter
sum of the length of the sides
49
radius
distance from the center of a circle to its edge (r = ½ d)
50
diameter
distance from one side of a circle, through the center, to the other side (d = 2r)
51
circumference
perimeter of a circle C = 2πr = πd
52
area
the number of square units inside a polygon
53
formulas for area
A (triangle) = ½ bh A (rectangle) = lw A (square) = s2 A (parallelogram) = bh A (trapezoid) = ½ h(b1+b2) A (circle) = πr2
