| centimeter | a metric unit of length 100 __ = 1 meter |
| convert | to rename |
| copy | one or more repeats of an object or number that are exactly the same in shape, size, and/or value |
| corresponding | the part of one figure that pairs up with a part of another figure |
| dimensions | the measure of the size of an object |
