Term

 

 

What is bilatteral symmetry?

Definition

 

 

It is reflectional symmetry, but only one line of reflectional symmetry

Term

 

 

How do you find the number of degrees needed to need to rotate an object so the image matches the original?

Definition

 

 

You divide the number of equal sides/figures of the shape, and divide 360 by that number.

Term

 

 

What are all the letters of the alphabet that have rotational symmetry?

Definition

 

 

H, I, S, X, and O.

Term

 

What formula do you use to solve a problem such as this example:

 

How many two person conversations are possible at a party of 42?

Definition

You use the formula

for this specific problem!

n(n-1)

2


The N value is the x value (number of people total) and 2 symbolizes the y value which is the two person conversation

Term

 

How would you go about trying to find a counter example to prove a conjecture wrong, such as for the following problem?

 

If a number can be divided by 4, it can be divided by 8

Definition

 

Look at the multiples of each.

Start immediatly with the opposite of what it's asking you!

Term
[image]Describe the picture in as many ways as you can
Definition

 

 

Rhombus, Square, Rectangle, Parralelogram, and Quadrilateral

Term

 

 

In a triangle, if given the centroid and the whole length of a segment going through the centriod, what is the length of ech segment if one of them is longer then the other.

Definition

 

The longer length segment is 2x and the shorter length is x

Term

 

 

How do you find the slope of two given points?

Definition

 y2- y1


 

x2- x1

Term

 

 

How do you know if lines are perpindicular?

Definition

 

 

If the slopes of each line/equation are opposite recipricals

Term

 

What steps do you take to find the perpindicular line of a given equation when you are also given a set of points along with an equation in slope-intercept form to make it perpindicular?

Definition

First, you wan to find the slope of the given equation.

 

Second, you plug in that slope into a slope-intercept form equation with the given set of points and plug it in to find the b value.

Next, simplify that equation and you are done!

Term

 

 

What is the sum of all exterior angles of a figure?

Definition

 

 

360 degrees

Term

 

When looking for degree measurements of arcs, what should you do first?

Definition

 

 

Find all of the interior angles and use those as the exterior angles

Term

 

 

What is the area of a cone?

Definition

 

∏r2 + ∏rl

OR
Area of circle + area of base

l stands for the slant height!

 

Term

 

 

What is the area of a parralelogram?

Definition

 

 

b x h

Term

 

 

How do you find the area of a semi-circle?

Definition

 

 

∏r2 divided by 2

Term

 

 

How do you find the area of a kite?

Definition

diagnol 1 x diagnol 2


2

 

OR

1/2 diagnol 1 + diagnol 2

Term

 

 

How do you find the area of an annulus?

Definition

 

∏R2 - ∏r2

OR

 

Big circle's area - small circle's area

Term

 

 

How do you find the area of a regular polygon?
What does each letter mean?

Definition

 

1/2 a x s x n

OR

1/2 a x p

 

a= apothem, s= side length, n= number of sides, & p= perimeter

Term
