6.G.A.1 Area of Triangles and PolygonsArea and perimeter of polygons10/2/17 Math Review Area and Perimeter of PolygonsAlign Panel: This panel allows you to align one or more objects the the artboard or other objects. Alignment: Formatting the appearance of text with the margins of the text box. Anchor Point Tool: Allows you to add or remove handles to create a curve on an anchor point. Anchor Points: A point on a path indicates a change of direction. Appearance Panel: This panel shows you the fill, strokes, graphic styles, and effects that have been applied to an object, group or layer and are able to modify theses from this panel directly. Area Type Tool: This occurs when using the type tool and you click and drag a text box, the text will automatically wrap inside the box. Blend Tool: This tool allows you to combine shapes/colors between two or more objects to create a new object between the original, blending the colors and shapes by inserting the middle steps to get from one object to the next. Blob Brush Tool: This tool is used to create free-form objects that can have a more hand-drawn feel. Brushes: Allows you to set the appearance/style of a path, can be applied to existing paths or used to create new paths. Clipping Masks: This command allows you to mask objects to a shape so that only areas that lie within the shape are visible, the mask and objects that are masked are called a clipping set. Closed Path: A path that has the same beginning and ending point. It forms a complete shape that can be filled with color or text. Create Outlines: This command converts text to closed paths and can be found in the Type Menu. Curvature Pen Tool: Allows you to simply create paths with curved anchor points. Curves: Can be applied to an anchor point using handles to create an arched line. Direct Select Tool: Allows you to select individual points of any path. Effects: These can be added to objects to create quick dynamic characteristics. Eraser Tool: This tool allows you to remove anchor points and cut through paths. Expand Objects: This allows you to divide a single object into multiple objects that make up its appearance. Eyedropper Tool: This tool allows you to sample the color or text from an existing part of the artwork. Global Swatches: This is a color swatches that will be automatically updated throughout your artwork when you change them, indicated with a white triangle in the corner of the swatch. Graphic Styles: A set of reusable appearance attributes that allow you to quickly change the look of an object. Grouping: This command allows you to link objects together so that they can be moved, scaled, rotator, or copy. Groups can be nested inside other groups. Hierarchy: To create visual order in design, controlling what the viewer looks at in order using size, color, contrast, etc… Image Trace: This command allows you to convert a raster image into a vector artwork. Isolation Mode: This mode allows you to adjust single objects/groups inside a group without ungrouping the group. Join Tool: This tool joins paths and anchor points together quickly. Kerning: This is the adjustment of the space between two individual letters. Knife Tool: This tool allows you to split an object into 2 pieces along a freehand path you draw. Leading: This is the adjustment of the space between lines of text. Live Corners: This widget appears when using the Direct Select tool and a corner is selected, when used this will create a rounded corner. Live Paint: This command allows you to quickly apply colors to objects in a complex design. Open Path: A path that does not end, not connected back to the original anchor point. Overflow Text: This occurs when the text box is too small to house all the text and is indicated by a small red plus sign in the bottom right corner of the text box. Paintbrush Tool: This tool is used to create free-form paths that can have a more hand-drawn feel. Paragraph Spacing: The space that occurs between lines of text. Pathfinder Panel: This panel allows you to create complex shapes by selecting 2 or more objects and using the buttons in the panel to cut, combine, or divide the objects. Paths: These are created when 2 or more points are connected, these are created using the pen tool. Pen Tool: It allows you to create and edit anchor points and paths. Pencil Tool: This tool is used to create free-form shapes or lines, the accuracy of the lines can be adjusted. Perspective Tool: This tool allows you to place elements on a perspective grid to adjust objects on a different perspective, automatically snapping to the perspective grid. Placeholder Text: Text that is placed in a text box that "holds a place" in a design to allow for creating a layout or adjust the text design. Point Type Tool: This occurs when when using the type tool and you click once, the text will continue without wrapping. Readability: The characteristics of fonts and styles that make test easy to identify and read. Scale, Shear, Distort Objects: This set of commands allows you to adjust the size and perspective of objects. Scissors Tool: This tool allows you to split a path into 2 pieces. Selection Tool: Allows you to select paths, objects or groups by click or dragging over them. Shape Builder Tool: This interactive tool allows you to create complex shapes by merging and erasing simpler objects. Shapes Tools: A group of tools to create basic shapes without using the pen tool (rectangle, ellipse, polygon, star, etc…). Smooth Tool: This tool will smooth a complex path and reduce the number of anchor points. Swatches: This is a saved color that can be applied in a design via the swatches panel and can be grouped, these can include gradients and patterns. Text Wrapping: This is when the text in a text box automatically wraps to the next line when it reaches the edge of the box. Threading Text: This is the ability to create 2 or more text boxes that are linked, when text is added/adjusted in one box, it will affect the other(s). Touch Type Tool: This tool allows you to adjust individual letter in a previously created text box. Tracking: This is the adjustment of the overall spacing between letters. Transform Objects: This allows you to change the size of objects. Type on a Path Tool: This tool allows you to add text along any previously created path. Type Tool: This tool allows you to create text in a design. View Modes: Ability to view projects and adjust the display on the screen. Modes include Outlines, Presentation, & Full Screen.Area of PolygonsArea of Polygons PracticeArea of Polygons TESTArea of Polygons Review
