Standard 4: Concepts and Principles of Geometry
Goal 4.1: Apply concepts of size, shape, and spatial relationships. 8.M.4.1.1 Describe and classify relationships among types of one-, two-, and three- dimensional geometric figures, using their defining properties.

CL: C, D
Calc: CN
Content Limit: Classify only. Figures may include triangles and quadrilaterals. Triangles may be classified by angles (acute, equiangular, obtuse, or right) or by sides (equilateral, isosceles, or scalene) or both (e.g., an obtuse isosceles triangle). Quadrilaterals may be classified according to number and position of parallel sides as well as angle measure (square, trapezoid, paralle logram , rectangle, or rhombus). Three-dimensional figures can include cubes, rectangular prisms, spheres, pyramids, cones, and cylinders. ‘Describe’ to be assessed in the classroom, not on the ISAT.

• Describe and classify relationships among types of two- and three- dimensional geometric figures, using their defining properties • Identify two- and three-dimensional figures according to their defining characteristics

Compare characteristics of two- and three- dimensional figures

acute • equiangular • obtuse • right • equilateral • isosceles • scalene • parallel • trapezoid • parallelogram • rhombus • cube • prism • sphere • pyramid • cone • cylinder • quadrilateral    
  8.M.4.1.2 Draw and measure various angles and shapes using appropriate tools.

CL: C
Calc: YES
Content Limit: Measure only using superimposed protractor. ‘Draw’ to be assessed in the classroom, not on the ISAT.

• Draw and measure various angles and shapes using appropriate tools • Recall properties of angles and shapes

• Make use of tools to create or measure angles and shapes

compass • protractor    
8.M.4.1.3 Apply the fundamental concepts, properties, and relationships among points, lines, rays, planes, and angles.

CL: C
Calc: CN
Content Limit: Items may include parallel, intersecting and perpendicular lines including two parallel lines cut by a transversal and the congruent and supplementary angles formed. Angles may include acute, right, obtuse, and straight. Angle relationships may include complementary, supplementary, and congruent. Symbols used may include: capital letter for points, two-headed arrow above two capital letters for lines, line segment above two capital letters for line segments, one-headed arrow above two capital letters for rays, angle symbol with one capital letter or angle symbol with three capital letters for angles, and symbols for parallel, perpendicular, and right angle.

• Apply the fundamental concepts, properties, and relationships among points, lines, rays, planes, and angles • Name lines, rays, planes and angles using points

• Identify parallel, intersecting, perpendicular lines

• Name acute, obtuse, right and straight angles

• Identify and calculate compliments and supplements

point • line • segment • ray • plane • complementary • supplementary • congruent • transversal • intersect • perpendicular • corresponding angles • vertical angles    
8.M.4.1.4 Identify and model the effects of reflections, translations, rotations, and scaling on various shapes.

CL: D, E
Calc: CN
Content Limit: When using three-dimensional shapes: Transformations may include reflections, rotation and translations. Items are limited to one transformation per item. Rotations occur in increments of 90º. When using two-dimensional shapes: Transformations may include reflections, rotation, translations, and change of scale . Items are limited to two transformations per item. Rotations occur in increments of 45º. Algebraic rules limited to translations and reflections when the figure is shown on a coordinate grid . No algebraic rules are required for items involving more than one transformation. Rotations must indicate clockwise or counterclockwise.

• Identify and model the effects of reflections, translations, rotations, and scaling on various shapes • Use coordinate geometry to re present and examine the properties of geometric shapes

• Describe sizes, positions, and orientations of shapes under transformations such as: reflections, rotations, translations and dilations

clockwise/counterclockwise • reduction /enlargement • reflection • rotation • translation • dilation • scale factor    
8.M.4.1.5 Identify congruence, similarities, and line symmetry of shapes.

CL: E
Calc: CN
Content Limit:Shapes limited to two-dimensional figures.

• Identify congruence, similarities, and line symmetry of shapes • Explain and illustrate the congruence, similarity and line symmetry of objects symmetry • congruent • similar    
8.M.4.1.6 Explain the concept of surface area and volume (capacity).

CL:
