    Study Notes

    Math Concepts

    • Improper Fraction: A fraction where the numerator is greater than the denominator.
    • Origin: The point of intersection of the x-axis and y-axis in a coordinate plane.
    • Rotation: A transformation that orients a figure around a specific point.
    • Y-Coordinate: The second number in an ordered pair indicating the vertical position.
    • Line Graph: A visual representation that connects points to display data over time.
    • Perpendicular Lines: Two lines that meet at a right angle (90 degrees).
    • Variable: A symbol or letter that represents an unknown number or value.

    Comparative and Geometric Terms

    • Equivalent Expressions: Two or more expressions that yield the same value.
    • Right Triangle: A triangle characterized by having one angle equal to 90 degrees.
    • Even Numbers: Numbers that end in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8.
    • Y-Axis: The vertical line on a coordinate plane, representing the y-values.
    • Parallelogram: A four-sided shape with opposite sides that are equal in length and parallel.
    • Face: A flat surface of a three-dimensional figure.
    • Edge: The line created where two faces of a three-dimensional figure meet.

    Mathematical Operations and Properties

    • Operation: An action performed on numbers, such as addition or multiplication.
    • X-Coordinate: The first number in an ordered pair representing the horizontal position.
    • Coordinate Plane: A two-dimensional grid defined by x-axis and y-axis.
    • Parallel Lines: Lines that are equidistant and never intersect.
    • Pyramid: A three-dimensional shape with triangular faces converging at a vertex and a polygon base.
    • Ordered Pair: A set of two numbers that define a point in a coordinate plane.

    Geometric Figures

    • X-Axis: The horizontal line on a coordinate plane, representing the x-values.
    • Rectangular Prism: A three-dimensional figure consisting of six rectangular faces.
    • Protractor: A measuring tool used to determine angles in degrees.
