Square | A rectangle with two adjacent sides congruent. Equivently a square is a quadrilateral with four right angles and four congruent sides. |
Rhombus | A parallelogram with two adjacent sides congruent. |
Rectangle | A parallelogram with a right angle. Equivalently a rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles. |
Parallelogram | A quadrilateral on which each pair of opposite sides is parallel. |
Isosceles Trapezoid | A trapezoid with exactly one pair of congruent sides. Equivalently an isosceles trapezoid is a trapezoid with two congruent base angles. |
Kite | A quadrilateral with two sides adjacent and congruent. The other two sides are also congruent. |
Greatest Possible Error | The GPE is a measurement one-half the unit used. For example, if the width of a peice of board was measured to the nearest centimeter as 5cm, the actual width must be between 4.5cm and 5.5cm. |
Rote Counting | -The child is able to recite the number name sequence correctly. |
Graphs | Graphs should have 1. Title 2.Lables on both axes 3. Source of data 4. Key to pictograph 5. Uniform size of symbols in pictograph 6. Scale: is the break shown 7. Scale: are the numbers equally spaced. |
Area | The surface included within a set of lines; specifically: the number of unit squares equal in measure to the surface. |
Circumference | the external boundary or surface of a figure or object |
Formula to find missing leg of hypotenuse of a triangle | Use this formula for both problems A(to the second power) + B(to the second power)= C squared |
Definition of Rote Counting | Child has no number concept |
Even divided by Even | Answer can be even or odd |
