QuestionAnswer
coordinate plane a plane formed by the intersection of a horizontal number line (x-axis) with a vertical number line (y-axis)
x-axis the horizontal axis (side to side)
y-axis the vertical axis (up and down)
ordered pair a point in the coordinate plane named (x,y)
origin the point where the x-axis and the y-axis meet; (0,0)
translation a movement (slide) of a figure along a straight line
reflection a change in position of a figure that flips the figure across a line
dilation a change in the size of a figure which either reduces or enlarges the picture
rotation a change in position of a figure around a fixed point
similar figures figures that are the same shape, but are a different size;all of the corresponding parts of the figures have the same ratio
congruent figures figures that are the exact same shape and size
parallel lines two or more lines in the same plane that never intersect
transversal a line that intersects at least two other lines
corresponding angles a pair of angles at matching intersections of the parallel lines and the transversal
alternate interior angles a pair of angles in between the parallel lines that are on the opposite sides of the transversal
alternate exterior angles a pair of angles outside the parallel lines that are on the opposite sides of the transversal
same side interior angles a pair of angles in between the parallel lines that are on the same side of the transversal
sequence of transformations a set of transformations (translations, reflections, dilations, and rotations) in the coordinate plane that must occur in a specific order to obtain a new figure

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
