TRANSCRIPT
A plane is a flat surface that goes on and on in all directions.
A plane figure is a flat geometric shape.
A polygon is a closed plane figure made up of three or more line segments (sides) that are connected.
A vertex is the point where two sides of a polygon meet. The plural of vertex is vertices.
vertices
Polygons are named by the number of sides they have.
A triangle has 3 sides.
A quadrilateral has 4 sides.
A pentagon has 5 sides.
A hexagon has 6 sides.
An octagon has 8 sides.
There are also names for polygons with seven sides, nine sides, and any number of sides!
The perimeter of a figure is the distance around the outside.
What is the perimeter of each of these polygons?

The area of a flat surface is the number of square units needed to cover the surface.
What is the area of each of these polygons?
Count the square units to find out.
A = 20 sq. units
A = 104 sq. units

A circle is a closed curve that is made of points that are the same distance from the center.
A line segment is a part of a line.
A radius is any line segment that connects the center to a point on the circle. A diameter is any line segment that passes through the center of a circle, connecting two points on the circle.
A diameter is twice as long as a radius.
The circumference is the distance around a circle.
The circumference of a circle is about 3 times the diameter.
C = about 3 x d
The area of a circle is the number of square units needed to cover the inside of the circle.
Find the approximate area of a circle by counting the square units inside or by multiplying the radius times the radius times 3.
A = about 3 x r x r
Find the approximate perimeters of the circles below.
R = 3 units R = 6 units

Congruent figures have the same size and shape.
Similar figures have the same shape. If they also have the same size, they are congruent.
A slide (translation) moves a figure up, down, or over.
A turn (rotation) rotates a plane figure.
A flip (reflection) is a mirror image of a figure.
A plane figure has symmetry if its halves match.
If a plane figure has symmetry, it can be folded so its halves match. The fold is called a line of symmetry.
How many lines of symmetry do each of these plane figures have?
A tessellation completely covers the inside space of a plane figure, usually in some kind of organized pattern.
Now use the tiles to experiment. Which tiles will tessellate a piece of math paper? Try squares, triangles, hexagons, etc. Will circles tessellate a plane figure? Explain your answer.
A three-dimensional object is called a space figure or a solid.
