Following table (graphic organizer) will help you learn about three-dimensional
figures called polyhedrons.
Use the above table (graphic organizer) to answer the following questions.
i.
What are the flat surfaces of a polyhedron called? Faces
ii.
What shape are the faces of a prism?
iii.
How many bases does a pyramid have?
iv.
How many bases does a prism have?
v.
How would you distinguish a prism from a pyramid?
2)
Transforming an object means changing its appearance. There are many ways to
do this, but we are going to concentrate on just four of them.
In each of these sections, we refer to the original shape as the object and the
transformed shape as the image.
Describe the following transformations in terms of reflection, rotation,
translation,or enlargement that have mapped one object onto it’s image

A' is the image of A

quadrant
Point where the x and y axes cross. Coordinates
are (0,0).
Horizontal axis of a Cartesian plane.
Vertical axis of a Cartesian plane.
Ordered pairs that identify points on the Cartesian
plane. (x,y)
Each quarter of the Cartesian plane.
The plane formed by a horizontal axis and a
vertical axis, often labelled the x-axis and y-axis,
respectively.
2) Label the followings on the given Cartesian plane
