Casement windows do not have a means to open the window by moving the bottom part of the window straight up. Casement windows open by the means of a hinge and they swing open to the inside or outside depending on the type of window. Casement windows can swing open from the top or the side also.
That would be true. Casement windows open with a crank.
Since casement windows are hinged like doors, rather than sliding up and down, they must be pushed open and pulled closed. Many modern casement windows have cranks attached that do the pushing or pulling when wound in a particular direction.
Casement windows slide vertically in their 'casing', hence the term.
We have casement windows upstairs.
Casement windows lock, they do not slide.
No, they open outward by use of a hand-crank on a hinge.
I can not find out which way casement windows should hinge. I am having replacement windows installed and want to do it right. I have a bay window with 3 windows being installed. The sequence of windows is : Casement Left side #1 (bay) , Picture window #2, Case window right #3 (bay). Should Casement window #1 (left) be hindged on the right side? Or on the left side? I will mirror this answer for casement window #3 (right side).

Casement windows can be purchased through local window services. There are also top names that sell casement windows including Pella, Andersens, and even Home Depot.
Casement windows open in our out, just like a door. They do not move up and down (those are single- or double-hung windows). See http://www.areliableremodeler.com/images/window-types.gif for examples. Any window that opens can have a lock.
