Across
- 2. isometric transformation that also maps every point to an image. It turns a figure about a fixed point which is called center of rotation.
- 4. part of a line consisting of two endpoints and all points in between. It is written like EF, AD, RK, QR etc.
- 5. a point or line common to lines or surfaces that intersect. Two lines meet at this and can create perpendicular lines.
- 8. slides an object from a fixed distance or direction. It is also an isometric transformation that maps every point to an image.
- 10. when the shape changes in size. An example is when a triangle gets really small and compresses.
- 12. pair of angles that lie on the outer side of the two parallel lines. But on either side of the transversal line.
- 16. angles formed when two lines intersect. They are linear if they a formed by two intersecting lines.
- 17. a flat surface made up of points.It would be three or more points.
- 18. intersecting system of lines. It is what the alternate, corresponding and consecutive angles lie on.
- 19. of something into two equal or congruent parts, usually by a line. This line is then called a bisector.
- 20. a part, share, or number considered in comparative relation to a whole. They connect or relate to a constant.
- 21. a location of the graph. It has no shape or size.
- 22. an isometric transformation that maps every point to an image. A example is point P to point P' and it is reflected off of a y or x axis.
Down
- 1. usually a decimal which scales, or multiplies, some quantity. To find it you put one number on top of the other and divide depending on enlargement or reduction.
- 3. each of the pairs of opposite angles made by two intersecting lines. Vertical is similar to the vertex of two triangles
- 6. value of something compared to another thing. A example is one apple to one orange, 1:1
- 7. said to be similar if they are the same shape. But they must be congruent meaning similar in shape and size.
- 9. two angles that have a common vertex and a common side but do not overlap. There is obtuse and acute.
- 11. two points that form and line with no thickness or width. Some say it is a dot that went for a walk.
- 13. a point or value that marks the end of a ray or one of the ends of a line segment or interval. Two connected equals a line segment.
- 14. Angles formed when two parallel or non-parallel lines are intersected by a transversal. The angles are positioned at the inner corners of the intersections and lie on opposite sides of the transversal angle.
- 15. straight lines passing through to create an endpoint. It is 2 or more lines.
