| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Cone | A 3-d figure with one curved surface, one flat surface(usually circular), one curved edge and one vertex |
| Volume | The number of cubic units it takes to fill a figure |
| Pythagorean Theorem | The sum of the square of the lengths of the legs of a right triangle is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse |
| Leg | In a right triangle, one of the two sides that form the right angle |
| Interior Angle | An angle on the inside of a polygon |
| Hypotenuse | The longest side of a right triangle |
| Face | A plane figure that serves as one side of a solid figure |
| Exterior Angle | An angle on the out side of a polygon |
