Nov. 17 Notes Parallel and Perpendicular
Parallel and Perpendicular Line Segments
Line segments - a line with a beginning and an end. A piece of a line. You know a line ends when it has dots at each end.
Line segments are labeled with letters.
Intersecting - lines that cross or meet.
Parallel - describes lines in the same plane that never cross, or intersect
- they are marked using "arrows"
Perpendicular
- describes lines that intersect at right angles (90 degrees)
- they are marked using a small square

Notes and Homework from Oct. 19 and 20th
Adding and Subtracting Decimal numbers
Estimate - to approximate an answer.
Over estimate - estimate that is larger than the actual number
Under estimate - estimate that is smaller than the actual number
Front End Estimation: that is using only the highest place value when estimating. eg. 125 + 476 = turns into 100 + 400 =
It is like under estimating.
Relative Size Estimation: rounding to the nearest highest place value.
eg. 125 + 476 = turns into 100 + 500 =
125 is between 100 and 200 but closer to 100
476 is between 400 and 500 but closer to 500
It is like rounding.
Estimating - getting an approximate answer.
Calculating - getting an exact answer.
HW Textbook pg. 48 - 51 # 4 - 25 even numbers
