The point line and pair of intersecting lines are special types of conic sections
If a right circular cone is intersected by a plane only at its vertex what shape is produced
The intersection will consist of only one point.
Tessellations have been used by various cultures in decorating what familiar objects
A.BuildingsB.ClothingC.Manuscripts
D. All of the above
The answer is D all of the above
A point of symmetry is a point around which a shape can be rotated without changing any of its characteristics
If it says rotated it's true
If it says reflected it is false
You can bisect an angle using the paper folding technique
Yes, you can bisect an angle using the paper folding
technique.
To find the bisector of a given angle using a paper folding construction does it requires you to first create a triangle using the given angle
You cannot tessellate seven sided polygons by themselves
Which of the following are the tools which allowed the Greeks to exploit the five basic postulates of Euclidian geometry
One can find an angle bisector using a compass and a straightedge construction or a straightedge and tracing paper construction
To find a segment parallel to another segment through a given point using paper folding techniques
Fold the paper so the line is on itself.
Fold this folded edge on itself causing a crease to form that
goes through the point in question,
You are using the theorem that lines perpendicular to the same
line are parallel.
To find the midpoint of a segment fold the paper so that the two endpoints of the sement match up
If you fold the line segment in half so that the two ends are
touching and then crease the paper, the crease will go right
through the midpoint of the line segment.
What best describes a line of symmetry
An image or thing that can be divided equally by one or more
lines, and look the same on each side.♥
Is it possible to create a regular tesselation with a regular polygon
Certain polygons, yes. Squares, Triangles and Hexagons are all
shapes which, in their regular form, can tessellate.
Other polygons cannot.
What is the best definition of a conic section
the figure defined by intersection of a cone and a plane.
What is produce when you slice a cone with a plane that passes through only one nappe but not parallel to the edge of the cone
An ellipse which, when the plane is perpendicular to the axis of
the cone, becomes a circle.
What does not describe a rigid motion transformation
Which transformations will result in an image that maps onto itself
What is the number of sides a polygon can have to form a regular tessellation
It can have 3, 4 or 6 sides.
If a tessellation is regular how many sides can the regular tessellation have
It can have 3, 4 or 6 sides.
What kind of angle is created by the intersection of two perpendicular lines ray or line segments
What is not a characteristic of of a perpendicular bisector
If a shape is a regular hexagon with six sides must be true
A regular hexagon has 6 equal sides and 6 equal angles
If a right circular cone is intersected by a plane only at its vertex as in the picture below what shape is produced
The answer will depend on the angle formed between the plane and
the axis of the cone. Since there is no picture "below" it is not
possible to determine that and therefore it is impossible to give
an answer.
