  1. Print this webpage. If you can, set your printer to Grayscale for faster printing.
  2. Fold each page down the middle along the solid vertical line.
  3. Cut along the dotted horizontal lines.
  4. Optional: Use tape, glue, or staples to hold the two sides of each flashcard together.

This will print 5 pages (5 terms/page). This box will be automatically hidden when printing. ← Back to Set Page

Acute TriangleAll angles in the triangle are less than 90 degrees.
Obtuse TriangleA triangle where one angle measures over 90 degrees.
Right TriangleOne angle in the triangle measures exactly 90 degrees.
Isosceles TriangleA triangle with at least 2 congruent sides
Equilateral TriangleAll the sides of the triangle are equal in length
Scalene triangleNo equal sides
KiteQuadrilateral with 2 pairs of adjacent congruent sides, with perpendicular diagnals
SquareA quadrilateral with 4 sides that are equal and has all 90 degree angles
RhombusA quadrilateral, all 4 sides the same length
Trapezoid hdQuadrilateral in which exactly 1 pair of parallel sides
Trapezoid bdA quadrilateral with at least 1 pair of parallel sides
RectangleA quadrilateral in which the opposite sides are parallel, all angles are 90 degrees
ParallelogramQuadrilateral in which the opposite sides are parallel
SphereAll points in a space that are a fixed distance away from a fixed poit
CircleAn infinite number of points connected around an equal distance from a middle point`
Polyhedron(The plural is polyhedra) A three dimensional object whose surfaces are composed of polygonal regions (faces, verices, edges)
Convex polyhedronis defined in a manner similar to that used in defining a convex polygon
Concave polyhedronIs defined in a manner similar to that used in defining a concave polygon.
Convex Polyhedronis defined in a manner similar to that used in defining a convex polygon
prisma polyhedron that has two parallel faces that are congruent. These 2 faces are called the bases of the prism. The other faces of the prism are called the lateral faces. (right prism, oblique prism)
PyramidA polyhedron whose base is a polygon ad whose faces are triangles that have a common vertex. That common vertex is called the apex of the pyramid.
Regular PolyhedronA convex polyhedron in which the faces are congruent regular polygons and in which the number of edges that meet at each vertex are the same.
CylinderA simple closed surface that is bounded by two congruent simple closed surfaces that lie in the parallel plane
ConeA siple closed surface whose base is a simple closed surface and whose lateral surfaces slopes up to a vertex that is called the apex
SphereThe set of all points in a three dimensional space that are the same distance from a fixed point, called the center
