List the names of these shapes, from left to right.

• Square, kite, rrhombus, trapezoid, quadrilateral

• Square, kite, rectangle, trapezoid, quadrilateral

• Square, rhombus, rectangle, trapezoid, trapezoid

• Square, kite, rectangle, parallelogram, trapezoid

Why are all squares also rectangles?

• Because squares have 4 equal sides and so do all rectangles.

• Because squares have 1 set of parallel sides and so do rectangles.

• Because squares have no right angles and rectangles have no right angles.

• Because squares have 2 sets of sides that are parallel and 4 right angles and so do rectangles.
