Triangles can be classified by the length of their ________ and the measure of their ________.
sides, angles
Classify this triangle by its sides and angles.
Scalene, Right (See the square corner?)
True or False: A rectangle can be classified as a rhombus.
False, because a rectangle does not have congruent (equal) sides.
Which 2-D figure can be classified using every name on the Venn diagram?
square
True or False: Rhombuses are always parallelograms.
True, because rhombuses have 2 pairs of parallel sides.
Classify this triangle by its sides and angles.
Isosceles, obtuse
Why is a square ALSO a rectangle?
A square has 2 pairs of parallel sides and 4 right angles...just like a rectangle.
Which describes BOTH triangles?
It is D because ALL triangles have at least 2 acute angles. It's the third angle that classifies or names it.
What is true of any polygon?
It is a closed shape with at least 3 straight sides and 3 angles.
All triangles have at least _____ acute angles.
2
Chase said he can draw an equilateral obtuse triangle. Is he correct?
Chase is not correct because equilateral triangles have only acute angles.
What is the greatest number of right angles any triangle can have?
only 1
Look at the quadrilaterals. Name the shapes that can only be classified as quadrilaterals AND trapezoids
O, R, and S
Which color flags show only parallelograms?
red, blue, and orange
True or False: A trapezoid is also a parallelogram.
False: A trapezoid only has 1 pair of parallel sides and a parallelogram has 2 pairs.
Name 4 polygons that have 2 pairs of opposite parallel sides.
parallelogram, rectangle, rhombus, square
Why is a rectangle NEVER a square?
A rectangle does NOT have congruent (equal) sides.
True or False: All 3 sides of an isosceles triangle are congruent.
False: Only 2 sides are congruent and the third side is different.
Which could be the sides of a parallelogram?
It is B because a parallelogram has 2 pairs of opposite, equal sides.
Which of the following statements is NOT true?
It is C because a trapezoid has 1 pair of parallel sides.
What are the properties of a trapezoid?
A trapezoid is a special quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides.
This question has 2 parts. Part 1 - What is a regular polygon? Part 2 - Name an example..
A regular polygon has congruent (equal) sides AND congruent (equal) angles.Examples: square, equilateral triangle
Using a protractor, Jacob drew a triangle with all equal angles. What type of triangle did he draw? Use 2 names.
an equilateral, acute triangle
Classify this triangle by its sides and angles.
Equilateral, Acute
What are the properties of a quadrilateral?
A quadrilateral has 4 sides and 4 angles.
Classify this polygon in the most SPECIFIC way.
trapezoid
Quinn says that the figure is a rhombus, but Brooke disagrees. Who is correct and why?
Brooke is correct because the figure is a parallelogram. A rhombus ALWAYS has congruent (equal) sides and a parallelogram had 2 pairs of opposite equal sides.
