7.2A Prisms

(a) A solid with a uniform cross-section in

the shape of a polygon is called a prism.

(b) A prism is named according to the number of sides or the shape of

its bases.

e.g.

Triangular prism Rectangular prism Square prism

(a) (b)

2. Write down the height of each of the following prisms.

7.2B Total Surface Areas of Prisms

For prisms of any shape,

total surface area = total area of two bases + total area of all lateral faces

where total area of all lateral faces = perimeter of base × height

e.g. Total surface area of the prism on the right

= base + base + all lateral faces

8.1B Rectangular Coordinate Plane

Fig. 1 shows a rectangular coordinate plane. The x-axis

and the y-axis intersect at a point called the origin.

The position of a point can be represented by an ordered

pair (a , b), i.e. the coordinates of that point.

e.g. The coordinates of the origin are (0 , 0),

the coordinates of point P are (2 , 3), and

the coordinates of point Q are (–2 , –1).

1. Write down the x-coordinate of each of the following points.

(a) A(3 , 6) (b) B(–2 , –7)

2. Write down the y-coordinate of each of the following points.

(a) C(–9 , 1) (b) D(4 , –5)

The x-axis and the y-axis divide a rectangular coordinate

plane into 4 quadrants. The signs of coordinates of the

points in each quadrant are indicated in Fig. 2.

point in quadrant I are positive.

In Fig. 1 on the previous page, point P lies in

quadrant I while point Q lies in quadrant III.

Note: Points lying on the x-axis and the y-axis do not belong to any quadrant.

8.4A Introduction to Polar Coordinates

In the polar coordinate plane on the right, the position

of point A can be represented by an ordered pair (2 , 30°),

i.e. the polar coordinates of A.

In A(2 , 30°), 2 is the radius vector of A,

30° is the polar angle of A.

Similarly, the polar coordinates of B are (3 , 150°),

the polar coordinates of C are (4 , 270°).

9.1A Figures with Reflectional Symmetry

If a plane figure can be folded along a straight line and the two sides of the figure

coincide completely, the figure is said to have reflectional symmetry. The straight

line is called the axis of symmetry.

e.g. The figure on the right has reflectional symmetry.

It has four axes of symmetry: L1, L2, L3 and L4.

reflectional symmetry. If so, draw all the axes of

9.1B Figures with Rotational Symmetry

If a plane figure coincides with its original figure n times (where n > 1) in one complete

revolution (i.e. 360°) about a fixed point, then it has n-fold rotational symemetry

(i.e. with order n) and the fixed point is called the centre of rotation.

e.g. The above figure has 2-fold rotational symmetry (or the order of rotational symmetry is 2).

The process of changing the size, direction or position of a figure is called transformation.

The new figure formed from transformation is called the image of the original figure.

9.2A Translation

For translation:

(a) Every point on the original figure is moved through the same distance in the same

direction to form the image.

(b) The image obtained has the same shape, size and direction as the original figure.

e.g. In the figure on the right, AB is translated 5 units to the right to form the

image A′B′, where AA′ = BB′ = 5 units.

9.2B Reflection

For reflection:

(a) The image obtained has the same shape and size as the original figure, but the position

is different and the corresponding parts are opposite to one another.

(b) The corresponding parts of the original figure and the image are equidistant from

the axis of reflection.

e.g. In the figure on the right,

AB is reflected in the dotted line ℓ

to form the image A′B′.
