Centroid | A 3D point defining the geometric center of a solid. |
Circle | A round plane figure whose boundary consists of points equidistant from the center. |
Circumscribe | A triangle located round a polygon such as a circle. To draw a figure around another. |
Cylinder | A solid composed of two congruent circles in parallel planes. |
Density | the measure of mass density is a measure of mass per volume. |
Diameter | A straight line passing from side to side through the center of a circle or sphere. |
