- 2. A specific position on a line, plane, or in space.
- 4. A flat two-dimensional surface upon which two-dimensional objects (e.g., circle, square) can lie, or the face of a three-dimensional object as it creates a surface (e.g., face of a cube); the dimensions of which are infinite.
- 5. A closed figure with eight sides.
- 6. Having curvy or undulating attributes (e.g., ocean, octopus tentacles).
- 10. Surface planes of three-dimensional shapes.
- 14. A closed figure with three sides.
- 15. Two lines that meet to make a corner.
- 18. Identical in size and shape.
- 20. Sides that are the same length.
- 21. A closed figure with seven sides.
- 22. Line segments in geometric figures compose the exterior of the object.
- 23. A two-dimensional shape in which all points on the curved line are equidistant from a center point.
Down
- 1. Terminology to describe the dimensions of an object or set. With young children, the terms large, medium, small, taller, shorter, longer, less than and greater than are all appropriate.
- 3. A closed figure with six sides.
- 7. Also known as corner/corners. The point at which two sides of a two-dimensional figure or two edges of a three-dimensional figure meet.
- 8. A closed figure with five sides.
- 9. Without a curve.
- 11. Two lines in a two-dimensional space that do not meet (for example, the opposite sides of a square). A parallelogram has two sets of parallel lines.
- 12. Has a plane-like quality.
- 13. A two-dimensional, closed, four-sided figure with four right angles.
- 16. The meeting of two faces in a three-dimensional shape.
- 17. A special type of rectangle that has equilateral (same length) sides and parallel opposite sides.
- 19. An informal word to describe the angles of objects.
- 24. A closed four-sided figure with parallel opposite sides. A square is a special kind of rhombus. Sometimes called a diamond.
