Section 1

(50 cards)

Rotation

Front

a rigid transformation where each point on the figure is rotated about a given point

Back

Reflection

Front

rigid transformation in which each point in a geometric figure is at an equal distance on the opposite side of a given line (line of symmetry)

Back

Exterior Angles

Front

An angle formed by one side of triangle and the extension of another side

Back

Rotational Symmetry

Front

symmetry that occurs if a figure can be rotated less than 360° around a central point and still look the same as the original. The number of times a figure fits into itself in one complete rotation is called the order of rotational symmetry.

Back

Image

Front

figure after a transformation

Back

Angle Bisector

Front

A ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles

Back

Corresponding Angles

Front

Angles that are in the same position, but a different group of angles

Back

Intersection

Front

The set of points two or more geometric figures have in common.

Back

Congruent

Front

Two figures are congruent if and only if there exists one, or more, rigid motions which will map one figure onto the other.

Back

Transversal

Front

A line that intersects two or more lines in a plane at different points

Back

Transformation

Front

one to one mapping of points in a plane such that each point in the pre-image has a unique image and each point in the image has a pre-image

Back

Plane

Front

A flat surface made up of points that extends infinitely in all directions

Back

Congruent segments

Front

line segments whose lengths are equal

Back

Skew Lines

Front

Lines that do not intersect and are not coplanar

Back

Midpoint

Front

The point halfway between the endpoints of the segment.

Back

Perpendicular Bisector

Front

a perpendicular segment that bisects a segment

Back

Euclidean Geometry

Front

the study of plane and solid geometry based on definitions, undefined terms (point, line, plane) and the assumptions of mathematician Euclid

Back

Parallel Lines

Front

Coplanar lines that do not intersect. Their slopes are equal.

Back

Line of Symmetry

Front

- line dividing an image into two congruent parts that are mirror images of each other

Back

Two-Dimensional Coordinate System

Front

two axes at right angles to each other, forming a xy-plane, consisting of points (x, y)

Back

Consecutive Interior Angles

Front

Angles that are on the same-side of the transversal and are in between the parallel lines

Back

Concurrent LInes

Front

when three or more lines intersect at a common point

Back

Collinear

Front

Points that lie on the same line.

Back

Composition of Transformations

Front

combination of two or more transformations

Back

Vertex

Front

The common endpoint of an angle

Back

Pre-Image

Front

original figure prior to a transformation

Back

Point of Rotation

Front

point around which a figure is rotated (center of rotation)

Back

Point Symmetry

Front

180 degree rotation around a point

Back

Parallel

Front

Lines, segments, rays or planes that never intersect

Back

Point of Concurrency

Front

the point where concurrent lines intersect

Back

Angle

Front

Formed by two non-collinear rays that have a common endpoint

Back

Symmetric Points

Front

two points in a plane such that the line segment joining the points is bisected by a point or center

Back

Segment Bisector

Front

Any segment, line or plane that intersects a segment at it's midpoint.

Back

Rigid Transformation (Isometric)

Front

a transformation that preserves the size and shape of a figure

Back

Reflectional Symmetry

Front

symmetry in which one half of the image is a mirror image of the other over a line of reflection

Back

Interior Angles

Front

Angles that lie between two transversal that intersect the same line

Back

Horizontal Reflectional (Line) Symmetry

Front

reflectional symmetry about a horizontal line of reflection

Back

Translation

Front

rigid transformation moving all points in a geometric figure the same distance and the same direction

Back

Perpendicular

Front

Lines, segments,rays or planes that form right angles.

Back

Midpoint of a Line Segment

Front

the point halfway between the endpoints of a line segment

Back

Coplanar

Front

Points that lie in the same plane

Back

Alternate Interior Angles

Front

Angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and are in between the parallel lines

Back

Line

Front

Made up of points and has no thickness or width.

Back

Alternate Exterior Angles

Front

Angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and are outside the parallel lines

Back

Perpendicular Lines

Front

lines in the same plane that intersect at 90 angles whose slopes are opposite reciprocals,

Back

Vertical Reflectional (Line) Symmetry

Front

reflectional symmetry about a vertical line of reflection

Back

Degree of Rotation

Front

number of degrees a figure is rotated about the point (center) of rotation

Back

Space

Front

A Boundless 3-D set of all points

Point

Front

A location - it has neither shape nor size

Back

Dilation

Front

a similarity transformation in which a figure is enlarged or reduced using a scale factor and a center of dilation

Back
