The Water CycleSnowflakes form at the condensation stage.
The water vapor condenses directly into ice!
This process is called
“sublimation.”
Every Every snowflake starts out as the same basic shape.
By the time each snowflake touches the ground, it is
uniqueunique.
Why?
temperature
temperature
Temperature: the measurement of how hot or cold something is.
humidity
humidity
Humidity: the amount of water vapor in the air.

Symmetry – Two Dimensional Polygons
Key words:
A regular polygon is a polygon in which all sides are the same length.
Symmetry – Two Dimensional Polygons
Key words:
A regular polygon is a polygon in which all sides are the same length.
A line of symmetry for a polygon is any line on which the polygon can be folded so that one half of the polygon will fall exactly on the other half.
