a rigid motion (stays the same shape and size) that turns/twists a figure on a plane about a fixed point, called center of rotation, through a given angle, called the angle of rotation/

the mathematician's way of saying “I believe that this is true, but I have no proof yet”. A conjecture is a good guess or an idea about a pattern.

4 quadrants on a coordinate plane divided up by the x and y axis. The upper right quadrant is the first quadrant, then to find the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quadrant, count to the left (counterclockwise) about the origin on each divided section.

Figures that have the same size and shape are congruent (equal, same) figures. If two figures are congruent, all corresponding sides and all corresponding angles have the same measure.
