Geometry in the Real World Project
Maddie SchimmingBlock 5
Point
• An undefined term in geometry, it names a location and has no size.
Line (segment)
• An undefined term in geometry, a line segment is a straight path that has no thickness and stops at two given points.
Plane
• An undefined term in geometry, it is a flat surface that has no thickness and extends forever.
Angle
• A figure formed by two rays with a common endpoint.
Perpendicular Lines
• Lines that intersect at 90 degree angles.
Parallel Lines
• Lines in the same plane that do not intersect.
Triangle
• A three sided polygon.
Right Triangle
• A triangle with one right angle.
Pentagon
• A five-sided polygon.
Hexagon
• A six-sided polygon.
Square
• A quadrilateral with four congruent sides and four right angles.
Rectangle
• A quadrilateral with four right angles.
Trapezoid
• A quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides.
Parallelogram
• A quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides.
Circle
• The set of points in a plane that are a fixed distance from a given point called the center of the circle.
Cylinder
• A three- dimensional figure with two parallel congruent circular bases and a curved lateral surface that connects the bases.
Sphere
• The set of points in space that are a fixed distance from a given point called the center of the sphere.
Cube
• A prism with six square faces.
Pyramid
• A polyhedron formed by a polygonal base and triangular lateral faces that meet at a common vertex.
Cone
• A three-dimensional figure with a circular base and a curved lateral surface that connects the base to a point called the vertex.
About this project
• All of these pictures were taken in Austria this summer during a trip with my family.
