Unit 6 Definitions: Geometry and Measurement
Equilateral triangle: A triangle with 3 equal sides and 3 equal angles.
Isosceles triangle: A triangle with 2 equal sides and 2 equal angles.
Scalene triangle: A triangle with no equal sides and no equal angles.
Acute triangle: A triangle with all angles less than 90°. All angles are acute.
Right triangle: A triangle with one 90° angle.
Obtuse triangle: A triangle with one angle greater than 90° and less than 180°.
Polygon: A shape with three or more sides. We name a polygon by the number
of its sides. For example, a five-sided polygon is a pentagon.
Regular polygon: A regular polygon has all sides equal and all angles equal.
Irregular polygon: A polygon that does not have all sides equal or all angles
equal.
Convex polygon: A polygon that has all angles less than 180°.
Concave polygon: A polygon that has at least one angle greater than 180°.
Congruent shapes: Two shapes that match exactly.
Formula: A short way to state a rule. For example, a formula for the area of a
rectangle is A=l x w, where l represents the length of the rectangle and w
represents its width.
Hatch marks: lines to show equal sides
Matching arcs: curves to show equal angles
Line of symmetry: Divides a shape into two congruent parts. If we fold the
shape along its line of symmetry, the parts match.
State the formulas to find the:
Perimeter of a parallelogram
P=2l+2s
Area of a rectangle
A=lxw
Volume of a Rectangular Prism
V=l x w x h
