1. Three-Dimensional Figures

2. Vocabulary Two-dimensional figures (plane figures) – triangles, quadrilaterals, and circles. They lie in one plane

3. Vocabulary Three-dimensional figures – figures that have length, width, and depth Cone Cylinder Prism Pyramid Sphere

6. Two-dimensional figures can be transformed through space to create three-dimensional figures. One way is to rotate a two-dimensional figure about a line. This line is sometimes called an axis of symmetry.

7. Space Figures Translate a rectangle through space – It creates a rectangular prism!

8. Space Figures Translate a triangle through space – It makes a triangular prism!

9. Space Figures Translate a circle through space – It makes a cylinder!

10. Space Figures Rotate a rectangle around an axis of symmetry – it also makes a cylinder!

11. Space Figures Twirl (rotate) a triangle around one of its sides – It makes a cone!

12. Space Figures Twirl (rotate) a circle around its diameter – It makes a sphere!

30. Cross-Sections EQ: How can I describe the cross-sections of solid figures?

31. Vocabulary Cross-section – a view of the inside of a 3D figure after it is sliced Polyhedron – a 3D figure (a solid with flat faces) http://www.learner.org/channel/courses/learningmath/geometry/se ssion9/part_c/index.html

32. Example 1 Describe three different cross-sections you can find for the rectangular prism below

33. Solution

34. Example 2 The cylinder below sits on a horizontal base. Draw and describe the cross-section formed when the cylinder is cut by a plane that is tilted away from its base.

35. Solution The cross-section is shaped like an oval. In mathematics, this shape is called an ellipse.

36. Example 3 The cone below sits on a horizontal base. Draw and describe the cross-sections formed when the cone is cut by a vertical plane through its vertex.

37. Solution The cross-section is shaped like an isosceles triangle. The base of the triangle is on the base of the cone.

38. Example 4 The pyramid below has a square horizontal base. Draw and describe the cross-sections formed when the cone is cut by a vertical plane that does not pass through the vertex at its top.

39. Solution The cross-section will be shaped like a quadrilateral. This figure is called an isosceles trapezoid.
