Geometry, Semester 1, Review

Front

What does SSS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

SSS stands for Side-Side-Side, a criterion for triangle congruence where all three sides of one triangle are equal to the three sides of another triangle.

What is the formula for the surface area of a cylinder?

Back

The surface area (SA) of a cylinder is given by the formula SA = 2πr(h + r), where r is the radius and h is the height.

Front

What is the definition of a transformation in geometry?

Back

A transformation is an operation that moves or changes a shape in some way to produce a new shape.

Front

What does AAS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

AAS stands for Angle-Angle-Side, a criterion for triangle congruence where two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are equal to the corresponding parts of another triangle.

Front

What is the difference between rotation and reflection?

Back

Rotation turns a shape around a fixed point, while reflection flips a shape over a line to create a mirror image.

Front

What is the formula for the area of a circle?

Back

The area (A) of a circle is given by the formula A = πr², where r is the radius.

Front

What does ASA stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

ASA stands for Angle-Side-Angle, a criterion for triangle congruence where two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to the corresponding parts of another triangle.

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

Congruent triangles are triangles that are identical in shape and size, meaning all corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

What is the formula for the surface area of a sphere?

Back

The surface area (SA) of a sphere is given by the formula SA = 4πr², where r is the radius.

Front

What does the term 'translation' mean in geometry?

Back

Translation refers to moving a shape from one location to another without changing its size, shape, or orientation.
