POINT:
The geometric figure formed at the intersection of two lines.
LINE (SEGMENT):
All points between two given points (including the given points themselves).
PLANE:
A flat surface extending in all directions.
ANGLE:
Two rays sharing a common endpoint.
PERPENDICULAR LINES:
Lines that intersect in a 90 degree angle.
PARALLEL LINES:
Two distinct coplanar lines that don’t intersect.
TRIANGLE:
A polygon with three sides.
RIGHT TRIANGLE:
A triangle which has a right (90 degree) interior angle.
PENTAGON:
A polygon with five sides.
HEXAGON:
A polygon with six sides.
SQUARE:
A rectangle with all four sides of equal length (90 degrees each).
RECTANGLE:
A quadrilateral with four congruent angles (90 degrees).
TRAPEZOID:
A quadrilateral which has a pair of opposite sides which are parallel.
PARALLELOGRAM:
A quadrilateral with with two pairs of parallel sides.
CIRCLE:
The locus of all points that are a fixed distance from a given point.
CYLINDER:
A 3D geometric figure with parallel congruent bases.
SPHERE:
A 3D solid consisting of all points equidistant from a given point.
ACUTE TRIANGLE
A triangle for which all interior angles are acute.
OBTUSE TRIANGLE
A triangle which has an obtuse angle as one of its interior angles.
This is a kitchen tile.
OCTAGON
A polygon with eight sides.
