NAME DATE cu 1-1 A Game and Some Geometry Objective: Use the term equidistant. In the figure below, you see five points: C, D, E, F, and G. Use a centimeter ruler to find the distance from C to E and from D to E. If you don’t have a centimeter ruler, you may use the centimeter ruler shown below as a guide. oF oS) *E G Refer to the diagram above. 1. What is the distance from C to E? from D to E? 2. What is the distance from C to F? from D to F? E and F are said to be equidistant from C and D because they are ‘equally distant from C and D. Refer to the diagram above. 3. Find another point on the diagram that is equidistant from Cand D. How many points exist that are equidistant from C and D? Describe the geometric figure the points would form. 5. Point G is 5 em from C and D. Find a second point, H, that is 5m from C and D. Can you find a third one? 6. How many points exist that are 5 cm from C and D? Describe their location. o 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 HW Hn 12 Centimeter Ruler eu STUDY GUIDE for GEOMETRY Copyright © by Houghton Miffin Company, All rights reserved.NAME _ DATE 1-1 A Game and Some Geometry (continved) Mark a point P on your paper. 7. Mark a point 4.cm from P. 8. Mark another point 4 cm from P. 9. Mark several other points that are 4 cm from P, How many points exist that are 4 cm from P? Describe the geometric figure the points would form, You are given the points X, ¥, and Z, below. 10. a, Draw a line to indicate all points equidistant from X and Y. b. Draw a circle to indicate all points 5 em from Z. If you don't have a compass, draw freehand as well as you can. c. How many points are equidistant from X and Y and are also Sem from Z? LL, Repeat Exercise 10(c), but use 1 cm instead of 5 em. Xe oN Your eyes may mislead you in the exercises that follow, but you are asked to make estimates. You may want to check your estimates by measuring. 12. Which is greater, the distance fromA to B or 13. How does the area of the circle on the left the distance from C to D? compare to the area of the circle on the A right? ic D B ‘STUDY GUIDE for GEOMETRY 2 Copyright © by Houghton Miflin Company.
