Properties of Shapes

I drew an 8 sided shape. When I measured it, I noticed that the sides were not all equal. Is it still a regular polygon?

• Yes

• No

My friend drew a shape and said that it was a square. The teacher said that it is not a square. How can my friend check to see if her shape is a square?

• She can check to see if the shape has 2 pairs of parallel lines.

• She can check to see if the shape has 2 acute angles and 2 obtuse angles.

• She can check to see if the shape has 4 equal sides.

• She can check to see if the shape has 4 equal sides and 4 right angles.

My friend wrote in his journal "All squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares." Is this statement true?

• Yes, it is true.

• No, my friend is incorrect.

Which quadrilateral does not have 2 pairs of parallel sides?

• rectangle

• trapezoid

• rhombus

• parallelogram

Which categories do rhombuses always belong to? Choose TWO correct answers.

• quadrilateral

• parallelogram

• trapezoid

• square

Which quadrilaterals always have 4 equal angles? Choose TWO answers.

• rhombus

• rectangle

• trapezoid

• square

Which quadrilaterals always have 4 equal sides? Choose TWO answers.

• rhombus

• rectangle

• trapezoid

• square

A square is all of the following EXCEPT a...

• rhombus

• rectangle

• parallelogram

• trapezoid

Which statement about rectangles is true? Be sure to read the ENTIRE statement.

• All rectangles are squares because all squares are rectangles.

• All rectangles are parallelograms because all parallelograms are rectangles.

• All rectangles are squares because all of the angles in both shapes are right angles.

• All rectangles are parallelograms because all of the opposite sides of both shapes are parallel.

Three students each chose to draw one shape from the following list:

-circle

-parallelogram

-pentagon

-triangle

A description of the shape each of the three students drew is listed below:

-The first student drew a shape that is a quadrilateral.

-The second student drew a shape that is NOT a polygon.

-The third student drew a shape that has one more angle than the first student's shape.

Which shape is NOT drawn by any of the three students?

• circle

• parallelogram

• pentagon

• triangle
