Geometry 8.1
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Endpoints | 2 points on any line |
| Ray | the subset of a line that contains a specific point (the endpoint) and all the points on the line that are on the same side of that point |
| Intersect | wherever 2 lines meet or where 2 lines have a point in common |
| Perpendicular | where 2 intersecting lines form right angles |
| Concurrent | where 3 or more lines intersect at a single point |
| Parallel | where 2 lines lie in the same plane and never intersect |
| Complementary Angles | the sum of the measure of 2 angles equals 90 degrees |
| Supplementary Angles | the sum of the measure of 2 angles equals 180 degrees |
| Hand-Eye Coordination | One aspect of spatial thinking. The ability of the vision system to coordinate the information received through the eyes to control, guide, and direct the hands in the accomplishment of a given task. |
| Figure-Ground Perception | The ability to identify a figure against a complex background. |
| Perceptual Constancy | The ability to recognize figures and objects when they are not in their familiar orientation. |
| Visual Discrimination | The ability to find similarities and differences between or among objects. |
| Visual Memory | Deals with the person's ability to describe or draw accurately, an object that is no longer in view. |
| Point | Geometrically, has no dimension (length or width), but it does have a location. |
| Right Angle | An angle whose measurement is 90 degrees. |
| Acute Angle | An angle whose measure is less than 90 degrees. |
| Obtuse Angle | An angle whose measure is greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees. |
| Line | straight and extends infinitely in two directions |
| Plane | A flat surface that extends infinitely in all directions. |
| Collinear Points | Points that lie on the same line. Any two points are collinear. |
| Noncollinear Points | three (or more) points that do not lie on a single line |
| Coplanar Points | two or more points that lie on a single line |
| Line Segment | A subset of a line that contains two points of the line and all points in between those points. |
| Straight | An angle whose measure is 180 degrees. |
| Reflex | An angle whose measure is greater than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees. |
| Skew | Two lines that do not intersect because they do not lie in the same plane. |
| Angle | The union of two rays that have a common endpoint |
| Vertex | The common endpoint of two rays. |
| Side | Each of the rays of the angle |
| Interior | The angle formed inside of a shape |
| Exterior | |
| Vertical angles | When two lines intersect, four angles are formed. The angle that are opposite of each other are vertical angles. |
