| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| base (of an exponent) | the number to multiplied in an exponential expression |
| clockwise (CW) | means to turn in the same direction as the hands of a clock; top turns to the right |
| coefficient | a number that is multiplied by a variable |
| congruent | identical in shape and size |
| constant | a number in an equation or expression, not attached to a letter like x or y |
| coordinate plane | a 2D tool used for graphing points, lines, and other objects |
| corresponding | parts (like points, sides, or angles) that are in the same relative position in similar figures or situations |
| counterclockwise (CCW) | to turn opposite of the way the hands of a clock turn; top turns to the left. |
| deposit | putting money into an account |
| dilation | a transformation in which the preimage enlarges or shrinks |
| equivalent | equal in value |
| image | the result of translations, rotations, and reflections on an object; has the prime symbol (A') |
| infinite | something which is boundless, limitless, endless |
| input | x; independent variable |
| integer exponent | indicates how many times to multiply the base number by itself |
| irrational number | a number that is not a fraction and can't be written as a fraction |
| less than | < |
| less than or equal to | ≤ |
| like terms | algebraic terms that have the exact same variables raised to the exact same powers (exponents) |
| more than | > |
| more than or equal to | ≥ |
| natural number | the positive whole numbers {1, 2, 3, ...} used for counting |
| Negative Exponent Rule | a negative exponent means to take the reciprocal of the base and make the exponent positive |
| no solution | an equation or system has no value for the variable(s) that makes the statement true; false statement (4=3) |
| ordered pair | (x,y) |
| orientation | the arrangement and direction of its parts; faces up/down, left/right, or maintains a clockwise/counterclockwise order |
| output | y; dependent variable |
| perfect square | a number obtained by multiplying an integer by itself; 4 x 4= 16 |
| perimeter | the total distance around the outside boundary of a two |
| Power of a Power Rule | multiply exponents when raising a power to another power |
| pre-image | the original figure before a transformation |
| Product Rule | add exponents when multiplying powers with the same base |
| proportional | two amounts that change at the same rate; equivalent ratios |
| Quotient Rule | subtract exponents when dividing powers with the same base |
| rational number | a number that can be written as a fraction |
| reciprocal | the value you multiply a number by to get 1; like flipping a fraction |
| reflection | a rigid transformation that flips a shape across a line of reflection; preimage stays congruent to image |
| rigid transformation | a move that does not change any measurements of a figure |
| rotation | a rigid transformation that turns a figure around a fixed point (center of rotation) by a certain angle, changing orientation but not size or shape |
| scale factor | a number that represents how much larger or smaller a figure becomes after dilation |
| sequence of transformations | applying two or more geometric transformations, like translations, rotations, or reflections, in a specific order |
| similar | shapes that have the same shape but different sizes, meaning their corresponding angles are equal (congruent), and their corresponding side lengths are in proportion |
| simplify | make an expression or equation easier to solve by using the distributive property, combining like terms, reduce fractions, follow order of operations |
| square root | a value multiplied by itself, gives the original number |
| term | a part of an expression or equations |
| transformation | a rigid transformation that slides every point in a figure a given distance in a given direction |
| whole number | all positive integers, beginning at zero |
| withdraw | taking money out of an account |
| Zero Exponent Rule | any nonzero base raised to the power of zero equals one |
