Polygons and Congruent Figures

An irregular polygon is:

• A polygon with different sides and different angles.

• A polygon with congruent Vertex

• A polygon with congruent sides and congruent angles

• Is not a Polygon

What's the difference between a rectangle and a parallelogram? 

• A rectangle has right angles. 

• A parallelogram has right angles. 

• They are both identical. 

Which is true about a square?

Joe sorted shapes into two groups as shown in the picture. Which rule did he use to place shapes into Group 1?

• polygons with at least 1 right angle

• polygons with 5 sides

• polygons with equal sides

• polygons with at least 1 pair of parallel sides

Which statement BEST describes why the shape below is a rhombus?

• It is a square with no right angles.

• It is a parallelogram with equal sides.

• It is a polygon with equal sides and equal angles.

• It is a quadrilateral with one pair of acute angles and one pair of obtuse angles.

Which statement correctly compares these two isosceles triangles?

• Both figures are polygons whose interior angles total 360 degrees.

• Both figures are polygons with one right interior angle.

• Both figures are polygons with one pair of sides of equal length.

• Both figures are polygons with 3 acute interior angles.
