Geometry Scavenger Hunt Allison Koronka Mandy Jackson Tracie Alvarado Eneida Rangel
Point Natural Man made An exact location in space Example: www.shadowfire.demon.nl point A www-personal.umich.edu
Line Natural Man Made A straight path in a plane, extending in both directions with no endpointsExample: opim.wharton.upenn.edu line AB or line BA www.usbr.gov
Plane Natural Man Made A flat surface that extends without end in all directionsExample: www.freefoto.com Planes are named by three points in the plane. www.avonleagardens.com
Parallel Lines Natural Man Made Lines that never intersect and are always the same distance apart Example: Freefoto.com www.eriding.net/media/ photos/maths/040909_psi...
Transversal A line that cuts across a set of lines or the sides of a plane figure. Transversals often cut across parallel lines. Example: Natural Man Made freefoto.com freefoto.com
Triangle Natural Man Made A polygon with three sides Examples: www.mikejs.com/ pics/colin1.jpg www.beneath.co.uk
Pythagorean Triple Natural Man Made A set of three positiveintegers which satisfies the Pythagorean theorem a2 + b2 = c2. Example: www.3aw.com.au www.willamette.edu
Quadrilateral A polygon with four sides. Example: Natural Man Made darkwing.uoregon.edu/~afrank/square_bush.JPG images.amazon.com/images/ P/B000C7LOGU.16._SCL...
Circle A plane curve everywhere equidistant from a given fixed point, the center Example: Natural Man Made http://www.lil-fingers.com/coloring/images/circle.gif http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx
Fractal A geometric pattern that is repeated at ever smaller scales to produce irregular shapes and surfaces that cannot be represented by classical geometry. Example: Natural Man Made http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/32/Sierpinski.png
Similar Items figures that are the same shape, but different sizes Example: Natural Man Made http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx
Cube a solid figure with six congruent square faces Example: Natural Man Made http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx
Oval An egg-shaped or elliptical form or figure. Example: Natural Man Made www.feathersite.com www.derutaitaly.com/ Specials/img/oval-dish.jpg
Cylinder A solid or hollow object that is shaped like a can. Example: Natural Man Made http://www.cloudforestvoices.com/CFVimages/Sycamore-trunk-web.jpg http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx
Square A plane figure with four equal sides and four right angles. Example: Natural Man Made http://www.msstate.edu/dept/crec/bhu%20square%20melons.jpg
Congruent Items Figures that are the same size and shape. Example: Natural Man Made
Sphere Natural http://www.javajane.co.uk/food/orange.jpg Man Made Any round object whose curved surface is the same distance from the center to all its points. Example: www.loc.gov
Cone Natural Man Made A cone is a space figure having a circular base and a single vertex. Example: freefoto.com wiki.videolan.org
Ray A ray is one of the basic terms in geometry. We may think of a ray as a "straight" line that begins at a certain point and extends forever in one direction. The point where the ray begins is known as its endpoint. Natural Man Made moments.capturednature.com/ archives/Sun-rays.jpg Example: zeppmusic.com
Intersecting Lines Natural Man Made The term intersect is used when lines, rays, line segments or figures meet, that is, they share a common point. The point they share is called the point of intersection. We say that these figures intersect. Example: www.anthroarcheart.org/ grfx/x64f.JPG www.istockphoto.com
Parabola Natural Man Made Set of points equally distant from a focus and a directrix. Example: www.reu.edu.uy/jpv/proyectos/cpm/foto/images/2005/UNA%20PARABOLA%20%20DIFERENTE.JPG A graph showing the reflective property, the directrix (green), and the lines connecting the focus and directrix to the parabola (blue) www.lcusd.net/lchs/dclausen/algebra2/lecture_notes/conics/flashlight_parabola.jpg
Pentagon Natural Man Made A pentagon is a five-sided polygon. Commonly, the term "pentagon" is used to refer to the regular pentagon. Example: dannyayers.com/2004/03/pentagon.jpg www.sports-collectibles-store.com
Angle Two rays that share the same endpoint form an angle. The point where the rays intersect is called the vertex of the angle. The two rays are called the sides of the angle. Example: Natural Man Made nmazca.com/3142857/ fibonacci_phyllotaxis.jpg www.bluffton.edu/ ~sullivanm/abram/angle.jpg
Arc Arc: In general, an arc is any smooth curve joining two points. The length of an arc is known as its arc length. In particular, an arc is any portion (other than the entire curve) of the circumference of a circle. Natural Man Made christine.theajnetwork.com/. ../640/rainbow.jpg
Ellipse An oval or oblong figure, bounded by a regular curve, which corresponds to an oblique projection of a circle, or an oblique section of a cone through its opposite sides. Example: Natural Man Made www.mnba.qc.ca/ellipse/ images/cover_02_01.jpg www.2dcurves.com/.../ tychobraheplanetarium.gif
Chord Natural Man Made A straight line connecting two points on a curve. Example: freefoto.com Microsoft Clip art
Pyramid A solid figure with a polygonal base and triangular faces that meet at a common point. Example: Natural Man Made www.nevadaweb.com ce.eng.usf.edu/pharos/ wonders/Gallery/pyramid.jpg
Prism A solid geometric figure whose two ends are similar, equal, and parallel rectilinear figures, and whose sides are parallelograms. Example: Natural Man Made freefoto.com www.korthalsaltes.com
Tangent A line or plane which touches a given curve or solid at a single point. Example: Natural Man Made freefoto.com bike-exchange.com
Parallel Lines cut by a Perpendicular Transversal These are when two parallel lines are cut by a perpendicular transversal. Example: Natural freefoto.com www.freefoto.com
Parallel Lines cut by a Non-Perpendicular Transversal This is when two parallel lines are cut by a non-perpendicular transversal. Natural freefoto.com freefoto.com
