Geometry Unit 2
Across
- 3. the steepness of a line on a graph, equal to its vertical change divided by its horizontal change; RISE OVER RUN
- 7. y = mx + b (3 words)
- 9. A point that divides a segment into two congruent segments
- 10. A non-Euclidean geometry in which a plane is defined as the surface of a sphere (2 words)
- 14. A figure that results from the transformation of a geometric figure. Vertices are capital letters with an apostrophe, (A' -- A prime)
- 15. y-y₁=m(x-x₁) (3 words)
- 17. points that lie on the same line
- 18. the original figure in a transformation
- 20. lines in the same plane that never intersect
- 22. all angles are congruent
- 25. in the direction that is opposite of the direction the hands on the clock move
- 26. the point at which two lines or planes meet and cut across each other
- 27. moving or changing of a figure or preimage
- 29. Part of a circle connecting two points on the circle.
- 30. The point of intersection of two sides of a polygon. the corners of figures
- 31. The length of a path between two points
Down
- 1. Two lines that intersect to form right angles
- 2. Having the same size and shape
- 4. A number of the form -b/a, where a/b is a nonzero rational number. The product of a number and its opposite reciprocal is -1. (perpendicular lines' slopes) (2 words)
- 5. A plane that is divided into four regions by a horizontal line called the x-axis and a vertical line called the y-axis (2 words)
- 6. c always represents the hypotenuse and a and b represent the other sides of a right triangle; used to find distance (2 words)
- 8. in the same direction as the rotating hands of a clock
- 11. A transformation in which a figure is turned about a fixed point
- 12. another word for dilation; changing the size of figures but not the shape
- 13. a²+b²=c²
- 16. A geometrical system in which a plane is a flat surface made up of points that extend infinitely in all directions (2 words)
- 18. being relative in size and shape, result of a scale factor
- 19. A transformation that "flips" a figure over a mirror or line of reflection.
- 21. A transformation that "slides" or moves each point of a figure the same distance in the same direction.
- 23. A transformation that changes the size of an object, but not the shape. using a center point and scale factor
- 24. a circular line on the surface of a sphere formed by intersecting it with a plane passing through the center (2 words)
- 28. a 2 sided polygon that exists in spherical geometry
