Unit 1 vocab math
Across
- 2. (of a circle) a point that is the same distance from every point on the circle.
- 5. to explain why something is correct or incorrect by giving logical reasons.
- 7. a ratio that tells the number of units of one quantity for 1 unit of another quantity.Rates are often expressed using the word per, such as 5 miles per hour or 2 cups per serving.
- 8. the factor you multiply all the side lengths in a figure by to make a scale copy.
- 12. a line segment that goes through the center of a circle and has endpoints on the circle. Also, the distance across a circle through the center.
- 13. specific but not named.
- 17. the relationship between two quantities where one quantity is a constant multiple of the other quantity. If the quantities x and y are in a proportional relationship, you can represent that relationship with the equation y = kx, where the value of k is constant (unchanging)
- 21. a drawing in which the measurements correspond to the measurements of the actual object by the same scale.
- 23. a fraction in which the numerator is a fraction, the denominator is a fraction, or both the numerator and the denominator are fractions.
- 24. to know and say what something or someone is.
- 25. the amount of space inside a closed two-dimensional figure. Area is measured in square units such as square centimeters.
- 27. the point (0, 0) in the coordinate plane where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.
- 29. the unit rate in a proportional relationship.
- 30. to include as part of something.
Down
- 1. tells the relationship between a length in a drawing, map, or model to the actual length.
- 3. two ratios that express the same comparison. Multiplying both numbers in the ratio a : b by a nonzero number n results in the equivalent ratio na: no.
- 4. the distance around the outside of a circle. It can be thought of as the perimeter of the circle.
- 6. on to be determined by something.
- 9. an explanation of what something is or is like using words.
- 10. in a circle, the quotient circumference diameter Common approximations are 3.14
- 11. (of a circle) a line segment from the center of a circle to any point on the circle.Also the distance from the center to any
- 14. almost exact.
- 15. to be proof or evidence of
- 16. a pair of numbers, (x, y), that describes the location of a point in the coordinate plane. The x-coordinate gives the point's horizontal distance from the y-axis, and the y-coordinate gives the point's vertical distance from the x-axis.
- 18. a two-dimensional shape in which every point is the same distance from the center.
- 19. the first number in an ordered pair. It tells the point's horizontal distance from the y-axis.
- 20. the numerical part of a rate. For example, the rate 3 miles per hour has a unit rate of 3. For the ratio a : 6, the unit rate is the quotient
- 21. to believe to be true.
- 22. a way to compare two quantities when there are a units of one quantity for every b units of the other quantity. You can write the ratio in symbols as a : 6 and in words as a to b.
- 25. real and existing, not a model or copy.
- 26. the second number in an ordered pair. It tells the point's vertical distance from the x-axis.
- 28. length in one direction.A figure may have one, two, or three dimensions.
