Term
Definition
Base of a cone   the flat surface shaped like a circle  
🗑
Base of a pyramid   a face opposite the common vertex (apex) where the triangular faces meet  
🗑
Bases of a cylinder   the two congruent, opposite flat surfaces shaped like circles  
🗑
Bases of a prism   the two congruent, opposite faces that are connected by rectangular faces  
🗑
Classify   applying an attribute to categorize a sorted group  
🗑
Congruent   of equal measure.  
🗑
Congruent figures   figures that are the same size and same shape  
🗑
Decompose figures   to break a geometric figure into two or more smaller geometric figures  
🗑
Edge   where the sides of two faces meet on a three dimensional figure  
🗑
Face of a prism   a polygon that forms a surface of a prism  
🗑
Irregular figure   a polygon with sides and/or corners that are not all congruent  
🗑
Polygon   a closed figure with at least 3 sides, where all sides are straight (no curves)  
🗑
Properties of three-dimensional figures   relationship of attributes within a geometric figure (e.g., a rectangular prism has 6 faces and each pair of opposite faces (bases) are congruent, etc.) and between a group of geometric figures (e.g., a square and a rectangle both have 4 sides and 4 square corners; however, a square has 4 congruent sides but a rectangle has only opposite sides congruent; etc.)  
🗑
Quadrilateral   a polygon with 4 sides and 4 vertices  
🗑
Regular figure   a polygon with all sides and corners congruent  
🗑
Side   a straight outer boundary between two vertices (line segment) of a two-dimensional figure  
🗑

🗑
Three-dimensional figure   a figure that has measurements including length, width (depth), and height  
🗑
Two-dimensional figure   a figure with two basic units of measure, usually length and width.  
🗑
Unit fraction   a fraction in the form of 1/b representing the quantity formed by one part of a whole that has been partitioned into b equal parts where b is a non-zero whole number.  
🗑
Vertez (vertices) in a three dimensional figure   the point where three or more edges of a three- dimensional figure meet  
🗑
Vertex (vertices) in a two-dimensional figure   the point (corner where two sides of a two-dimensional figure meet  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
