A

• Adjacent Angles
• An adjacent angle is angles that share a common vertex, common side, and don't overlap

B

• Base (Exponet Wise)
• Base - in a power, the number that is the common factor.

C

• Cubed Root - a number that multiples itself 3 times in order to create a cubic value.

D

• The diameter is a circle cut through the middle

E

• Exponet - in a power, the number of times the base is used as a factor.

F

• Fraction- a numeral quantity that is not a whole number

G

• Graphs- a diagram showing the relation between variable quantities.
• Typically of 2 variables

H

• Height - a measure of a polygon or solid figure, Taken as a perpendicular rom the base of the figures.
• (BxH wise)

I

• Integer- any negative or positive whole number including zero

J

• Joint Variation- Directly proportional to each variable taken 1 at a time.

K

• Kite- Quadrilateral whose 4 sides can be grouped into 2 pairs of equal length side that are adjacent to each other.

L

• Logarithm- a quantity representing the power to which a fixed number (base) must be raised to produce a given number.

M

• Mixed Number- a fraction with a whole number in front of it
• Ex: 3 1/5

N

• Negative Exponent- an exponent that is negative.
• 8 to the -2 power changes to 1/8 to the 2 power. It becomes a positive.

O

• Ordered Pair- a pair of elements. (A,b). They help you locate the correct number on a graph
• Ex: (2,3) that means you go to the right 2 and up 3

P

• Parallel lines- lines that can keep on going forever and never intersect

Q

• Quadrant- each of 4 parts of a plane divided by 2 lines or planes at right angles

R

• Rational number- any number that can be expressed as a quotient or fraction.

S

• Scale- when you reduce or enlarge something from its regular size.

T

• Translation- a shape sliding. TranSLation.

U

• Undefined Slope- the slope of a vertical line.

V

• Variable- a letter representing a number.

W

• Whole number- a number that is not a fraction nor decimal or root.

X

• X - intercept- where the graph crosses the x - axis

Y

• Y - intercept- where the graph crosses the Y- intercept

Z

• Zero Property- product of 2 non-zero elements is non-zero
• Ex: 2 + 0 = 2
