In the figure, all congruent segments are marked as congruent.Classify the triangle by its side lengths and angle measures?
equilateral acute
Is it true that a figure with no lines of symmetry have rotational symmetry?
yes
What figure has both line symmetry and rotational symmetry?
A circle and square.
A figure made up of simple geometric shapes?
A geometric solid. The answer is NOT polyhedron. A cone, for example, which is a figure made up of the most simple geometric shapes (a straight line) and a circle, is not a polyhedron.
What geometric figure of sheet of paper?
A rectangle.
What geometric figure does not have a line of symmetry?
A parallelogram does not have a line of symmetry.
Which geometric figure has exactly 4 lines of symmetry?
A square
What is an axis of symmetry?
An axis of symmetry is any of one or more lines about which a geometric figure is symmetrical.
Does every figure have a line of symmetry?
Shapes do not always have lines of symmetry. For example, if you have an irregular shape, it will not have a line of symmetry. I am quite certain though that all geometric shapes have a line of symmetry.
What geometric figure has only one line of symmetry?
Only One Line of SymmetryAn isosceles triangle only has one line of symmetry.
What is a figure if all the sides have equal lengths and all the angles have equal measures?
The figure is a Regular polygon.
What is a figure with sides that have equal lengths and all the angles have equal measures?
polygon
What is a figure with sides the have equal lengths and all the angles have equal measures?
square
Why is it important to keep track of corresponding parts in congruent figures?
It is important so you can later prove that the figure is congruent using a geometric proof or other method. It is also useful for finding side lengths and the measures of angles.
What geometric figure has a measurable length?
Any two dimentional geometric figure has a measurable length. This measurement is called circumference. This is also called a plane figure. Examples of plane figures with measurable lengths are: triangle, square, circle, and rectangle.
What standards does a congruent figure have to meet to be a congruent figure?
All interior angle measures and side lengths of one figure must be the same for the other figure.
Which figure has sides that have all equal lengths and all the angles have equal measures?
Any "regular" polygon.
