Unit 12

Unit 12 Area and Perimeter of Geometric Shapes

TermDefinition
perpendicular Two lines that meet at a point and form right angles (90°) to each other.
parallel Lines in the same plane that never intersect and remain the same distance apart from each other.
quadrilateral A four-sided polygon.
altitude A perpendicular distance from a vertex to its opposite side in a polygon.
supplemental angles Two angles whose measures have a sum of 180°.
parallelogram A quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides parallel. Opposite sides lengths are congruent and opposite angles are equal measures. Consecutive angles are supplementary angles.
trapezoid A quadrilateral with only one pair of parallel sides.
triangle A polygon with three sides and three angles.
area The amount of square units covered by a two dimensional figure.
hypotenuse The long side opposite the right angle in a right triangle.
perimeter The sum of the lengths of a closed plane figure.
circumference The distance around the circle.
radius A segment whose endpoints are the center of a circle and a point on the circumference of the circle.
diameter A segment that passes through the center of a circle and whose endpoints are on the circumference of the circle.
Pi The ratio of the circumference of the circle to the length of the diameter. π≈3.14π ≈ 3.14
proportion An equation that states two ratios are equivalent.
sector The part of a circle enclosed by two radii of a circle and their intercepted arc. (A pie-shaped part of a circle)
composed To create something.
decomposed To break something down into smaller parts or pieces.
breadth The distance from one side of an object to the other side.
composite figure A two dimensional geometric figure made from two or more two dimensional geometric figures.
semi-circle Half of a circle.

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.
