Possible Answers:

Heptagon

Pentagon

Hexagon

Parallelogram

Correct answer:

Pentagon

Explanation:

The two-dimensional figure shown in the image is a pentagon. A pentagon is classified by having five sides, five angles, and five vertices. A pentagon has interior angles that add to 540 degrees. Regular pentagons have sides of equal length and interior angles of 108 degrees.

Example Question #12 : Classify Two Dimensional Figures: Ccss.Math.Content.4.G.A.2

What is the name for the two-dimensional figure below?

Explanation:

The two-dimensional shape in the image is a heptagon. A heptagon has seven sides, seven angles, and seven vertices. The sum of the interior angles is 900°.

Example Question #11 : Draw And Identify Lines And Angles, And Classify Shapes By Properties Of Their Lines And Angles

Do the black lines in the figure represent lines of symmetry? 

10

Possible Answers:

No

Yes

Correct answer:

Yes

Explanation:

When you are trying to decide if a line represents a line of symmetry you can think about folding the figure across that line. Once you make the fold, do all of the parts line up on top?

If yes, then the line represents a line of symmetry. 

If no, then the line does not represent a line of symmetry. 

10

These lines represent lines of symmetry because if you fold on the black lines, then one side would lay on top of the other and the parts would match up.

No

Yes

Correct answer:

No

Explanation:

When you are trying to decide if a line represents a line of symmetry you can think about folding the figure across that line. Once you make the fold, do all of the parts line up on top?

If yes, then the line represents a line of symmetry. 

If no, then the line does not represent a line of symmetry. 

 7

These lines do not represent lines of symmetry because if you fold on the black lines,  one side will not lay on top of the other with parts that match up.
