"geometrical terms"
 
   Hi, my name is Kendra. I'm in the 10th grade. I have a Geometry project due tomorrow! I'm very desperate. I'm doing whats known as an "Alphabet Book." In this "Alphabet Book," I must define and give examples for geometrical terms. I must have 2 terms for each letter of the alphabet. However, I'm in a bind! I can't think of any other words that start with x or y! All I have for x and y are x-axis and y-axis. Please, if you can think of any other words, I'd really appreciate your help!!!!!

Thanks,
Kendra

Well, to "x-axis" you can add "x-coordinate", and similarly with "y". For the latter you also have "yard" - a unit of measurement, and "yaw" - the angle between the axis of a projectile and its velocity vector.
