Math 8 Unit 2 Flashcards
Dilations always increase the length of line segments.
False
Dilations of an angle are congruent to the original angle.
True
Dilations of a triangle are similar to the original triangle.
True
Dilation’s increase the measures on angles.
False
Dilations take perpendicular lines to perpendicular lines.
True
Dilations of a triangle are congruent to the original triangle.
False
Shapes that can have the same angles and shape, but have different sizes.
Similar
Where is the vertical length?
The top side
Where is the horizontal length?
The bottom side
What equations can you use for finding the slope?
y/x = K OR y=kx
What would be the scale factor if a side length went from 2 to 4?
2
What would be the scale factor if a side length went from 5 to 15?
3
What would be the scale factor if a side length went from 1 to 0.5?
1/2
What would be the scale factor if a side length went from 6 to 24?
4
What would be the scale factor if a side length went from 7 to 35?
5
How do you find the slope of a line?
You find 2 points on the line, and create slope triangles.
What is the equation of the 2 sides?
VERTICAL/HORIZONTAL
A shape with at least 3 straight sides or angles, typically five or more.
Polygon
A point connected to at least 2 segments.
Vertex
Something that is the same of one shape to another shape.
