Three-dimensional objects can be represented with a twodimensional figure using special drawing techniques.
Geometry is a mathematical system built on accepted facts,
basic terms, and definitions.
Number operations can be used to find and compare the
lengths of segments and the measures of angles.
Special angle pairs can be used to identify geometric
relationships and to find angle measures.
Formulas can be used to find the midpoint and length of any
segment in the coordinate plane.
Perimeter and area are two different ways of measuring the
size of geometric figures.
