Geometry in the Real World

By: Madison MondonBlock 1

A precise location on a line or plane

Point

a surface generated by a straight line moving at a constant velocity with respect to a fixed point.

A line with two distinct end points

ANGLE

The space in between two lines or three planes

Lines that intersect to form four 90 degree angles

Lines that never intersect and always remain the same distance from each other

PARALLEL LINES

A three sided polygon with three angles

A triangle with a right angle

Right Triangle

Five sided polygon with five angles

Six sided polygon with six angles

Hexagon

A four sided regular polygon with all sides equal and all internal angles are 90 degrees

A parallelogram having four right angles

Rectangle

A quadrilateral having two parallel sides and two nonparallel sides

Trapezoid

A quadrilateral having both pairs of opposite sides

parallel to each other

A closed plane curve consisting of all points at a given distance from the center

Circle

a surface or solid bounded by two parallel planes and generated by a straight line moving parallel to the given planes and tracing a curve bounded by the planes

and lying in a plane perpendicular or oblique to the given planes

a solid geometric figure generated by the revolution of a semicircle about its diameter; a round body whose surface is at all points

equidistant from the center

Sphere

half of a circle; the arc from one end of a diameter to the other

Semicircle

Two lines in the same plane are not parallel and intersect at a certain point

An egg-shaped or elliptical form or figure

Oval
