Geometry Vocabulary
Across
- 3. A rigid transformation that involves flipping a figure over the line of reflection.
- 5. A transformation that maintains the shape of a figure but multiplies its dimensions by a chosen factor.
- 6. Lines that intersect at a right angle.
- 8. Angles that add to 90 degrees.
- 9. A figure can be rotated a certain degree about the center and will appear the same.
- 13. Maps each point of a figure to a new point so that the resulting image has the same size and shape.
- 14. The distance around a 2-dimensional object's exterior.
- 16. A diagram with fact bubbles and a conclusion bubble with justifications to prove some fact such as similar triangles.
- 17. Lie in the same plane and never intersect.
- 18. Angles that add to 180 degrees.
- 19. A figure can be folded on a line of symmetry where both halves of the figure will match up or line up with each other exactly.
Down
