Classifying Quadrilaterals

How are rectangles and squares different?

• Squares have 4 sides equal to each other while rectangles only require opposite sides to be equal to each other, not all 4.

• Rectangles have all sides equal while squares do not.

• Both shapes have the same properties and are interchangeable.

• Squares can have different angles while rectangles cannot.

What is the difference between a rhombus and a square?

• A square has all right angles, while a rhombus does not have to have right angles.

• A rhombus has equal sides, while a square does not.

• A square can have unequal sides, while a rhombus cannot.

• A rhombus has four right angles, while a square has two.

What is a rectangle?

• A quadrilateral with 4 right angles and 2 sets of opposite sides lengths that are equal.

• A polygon with 6 sides and equal angles.

• A three-dimensional shape with 4 triangular faces.

• A quadrilateral with only one pair of parallel sides.

What is a rhombus?

• A polygon with three sides

• A quadrilateral with all four sides of equal length but not necessarily with right angles

• A shape with four right angles

• A circle with equal radius

What is a parallelogram?

• A quadrilateral with 2 sets of parallel sides.

• A three-sided polygon.

• A shape with all sides equal and angles of 90 degrees.

• A quadrilateral with only one pair of parallel sides.

What is a trapezoid?

• A quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides.

• A polygon with four equal sides.

• A three-sided figure.

• A quadrilateral with no parallel sides.

What is a concave quadrilateral?

• A quadrilateral with all angles less than 90 degrees.

• A quadrilateral that has at least one interior angle greater than 180 degrees.

• A quadrilateral with equal sides and angles.

• A quadrilateral that is always a rectangle.

What are the characteristics of a square?

• A square has 4 equal sides and 4 right angles.

• A square has 4 unequal sides and 4 right angles.

• A square has 4 equal sides and 2 right angles.

• A square has 4 unequal sides and 2 acute angles.

Can a square be considered a rectangle?

• Yes, a square is a special type of rectangle because it has all right angles and opposite sides that are equal.

• No, a square cannot be a rectangle because it has equal sides.

• Yes, but only if the square is rotated at a 45-degree angle.

• No, a square is a completely different shape from a rectangle.

What is a quadrilateral?

• A polygon with four sides and four angles.

• A shape with three sides and three angles.

• A figure with five sides and five angles.

• A closed figure with six sides and six angles.
