slope | | matching sides of 2 or more polygons |
corresponding angles | | figures with the same shape but not necessarily the same size are similar |
scale | | ratios that name the same comparison |
quadrant | | a rate in which the 2nd quantity in the comparison is 1 unit |
y-axis | | the technique of using similar figures and proportions to find a measure |
similar | | angles in the same position formed when a third line intersects 2 lines |
cross product | | the product of numbers on the diagonal when comparing 2 ratios |
scale drawing | | the point where the x-axis intersect on the coordinate plane (0,0) |
coordinate plane | | an equation that states that 2 ratios are equivalent |
scale factor | | a proportional model is a 3-dimensional object |
Indirect measurement | | a drawing that uses a scale to make an object smaller than or larger than the real object |
origin | | the vertical axis on a coordinate plane |
corresponding sides | | a ratio that compares 2 quantities measured in different units |
unit rate | | the horizontal axis on a coordinate plane |
rate | | a plane formed but he intersection of a horizontal number line called the x-axis and a vertical number line called the y-axis |
scale model | | the ratio between 2 sets of measurements |
x-axis | | a pair of numbers that can be used to locate the point on a coordinate plane |
proportion | | a measure of the steepness of a line on a graph; the rise divided by the run |
ordered pair | | the x- and y-axises divide the coordinate plane into 4 regions. |
equivalent ratios | | the ratio used to enlarge or reduce similar figures |
