Question
Answer
How do you find the perimeter of a two-dimensional shape?   Add up all of the sides. Perimeter is the distance AROUND the outside of a figure. Measured in units.  
🗑
How do you find the area of a two-dimensional figure?   Count the number of square units on the inside of the figure. If the figure is a SQUARE or RECTANGLE you can multiply the length and the width. Measured in square units.  
🗑
How do you find the volume of a three-dimensional object?   Volume is the number of CUBIC UNITS on the inside of a 3-d shape. If it is a CUBE or RECTANGULAR PRISM you can multiply the length X width X height. Measured in cubic units  
🗑
What is volume?   How many cubic units it takes to fill a 3-dimensional object.  
🗑
What is area?   The space covering a 2-dimensional object. The number of square units on the inside of a 2-d shape.  
🗑
What is perimeter?   The distance around the outside of a 2-dimensional shape. The number of units when you add up all the sides.  
🗑
Triangle with no equal sides. All sides are different lengths.   Scalene  
🗑
Triangle with all equal sides. All sides are the same length and all angles are the same.   Equilateral  
🗑
Triangle with two equal sides.   Isosceles  
🗑
Triangle with all acute angles.   Acute  
🗑
Triangle with one right angle.   Right  
🗑
Triangle with one obtuse angle.   Obtuse  
🗑
An angle less than 90 degrees   acute  
🗑
An angle greater than 90 degrees   obtuse  
🗑
A angle exactly 90 degrees   right  
🗑
a line that goes on forever on both sides   line  
🗑
a line that has one endpoint and goes on forever in one direction   ray  
🗑
a line that has two endpoints   line segment  
🗑
What is a polygon?   A closed figure with straight sides.  
🗑
What is the difference between a pyramid and a prism?   Pyramids come to a point. They have no parallel faces. Prisms have a congruent top and bottom (bases) they have parallel faces.  
🗑
Name three solid figures. (3-dimensional shapes)   cube, rectangular prism, pyramid, cone, cylinder  
🗑
What is the face of a 3-d object?   Flat side  
🗑
What is the edge of a 3-d object?   Where two faces meet  
🗑
What is a vertex (what are vertices)?   Corners, where two lines meet or two edges meet in a 3-d object.  
🗑
Is a circle a polygon? Why or why not?   No-it has curves.  
🗑
A 4 sided polygon   quadrilateral  
🗑
a 3 sided polygon   triangle  
🗑
a 6 sided polygon   hexagon  
🗑
an 8 sided polygon   octagon  
🗑
a 5 sided polygon   pentagon  
🗑
What are parallel lines?   Lines that will never meet, touch or get closer together.  
🗑
What are perpendicular lines?   Lines that meet or cross to form right angles.  
🗑
What is a two dimensional object?   A flat shape with a length and a width.  
🗑
What is a three-dimensional object?   A solid with a length, width and height.  
🗑
