Example Questions
Example Question #4 : Shape Properties
Which of the shapes is NOT a quadrilateral?
Hexagon
Rectangle
Square
Rhombus
Trapezoid
Hexagon
A quadrilateral is a sided shape. The only shape listed that does not have
sides is a hexagon, which has
sides.
Example Question #5 : Shape Properties
Which of the following shapes is NOT a parallelogram?
Rhombus
Rectangle
Square
Kite
Kite
A rectangle, square, and rhombus can all be classified as a parallelogram because each shape has opposite side lengths that are equal. A kite does not.
Example Question #6 : Shape Properties
What is the difference between a trapezoid and a isosceles trapezoid?
An isosceles trapezoid has to have equal base angles
There is no difference between them
A trapezoid has to have equal side lengths
An isosceles trapezoid has to have equal side lengths
A trapezoid has to have equal base angles
An isosceles trapezoid has to have equal base angles
By definition, an isosceles trapezoid has to have equal base angles, but a trapezoid does not have to have equal angles.
Example Question #4 : Shape Properties
Which shape is NOT a quadrilateral?
Kite
Rhombus
Rectangle
Trapezoid
Circle
Circle
A quadrilateral has to have sides, a circle does not have any sides.
Example Question #1 : Properties Of Triangles
What is the main difference between a right triangle and an isosceles triangle?
A right triangle has to have a angle and an isosceles triangle has to have
equal, base angles.
A right triangle has to have a angle and an isosceles triangle has to have
equal, base angles.
A right triangle has to have a angle and an isosceles triangle has to have
equal, base angles.
An isosceles triangle has to have a angle and a right triangle has to have
equal, base angles.
A right triangle has to have a angle and an isosceles triangle has to have
equal, base angles.
A right triangle has to have a angle and an isosceles triangle has to have
equal, base angles.
By definition, a right triangle has to have one right angle, or a angle, and an isosceles triangle has
equal base angles and two equal side lengths.
Example Question #7 : How To Find The Length Of The Side Of An Equilateral Triangle
What is the difference between an equilateral triangle and a scalene triangle?
The sum of their angle measurements
The length of their sides
The sum of their side lengths
Their color
The number of side lengths
The length of their sides
Of the choices listed, the main difference between an equilateral triangle and a scalene triangle is their side lengths. An equilateral triangle has to have equal sides, but a scalene triangle can have all different side lengths.
Example Question #821 : Geometry
A two-dimensional figure has four sides, the length is 3 centimeters. All of its four angles are right angles. Choose the correct category (or categories) that describes this type of figure.
rhombus
quadrilateral
rectangle
square
All four categories are correct.
All four categories are correct.
Example Question #591 : Plane Geometry
What other shape can a parallelogram be classified as?
Rectangle
Square
Triangle
Quadrilateral
Rhombus
Quadrilateral
A parallelogram can not be classified as a square because a square has to have equal sides, but a parallelogram can have two different side lengths, as long as the opposite side lengths are equal.
A parallelogram can not be classified as a rectangle because a rectangle has to have angles, and a parallelogram does not.
A parallelogram can not be classified as a triangle because a parallelogram has to have sides and a triangle only has
sides.
A parallelogram can not be classified as a rhombus because a rhombus has to have equal sides and a parallelogram does not.
A parallelogram has four sides, and all shapes with four sides are quadrilaterals.
Example Question #1 : Classify Two Dimensional Figures: Ccss.Math.Content.5.G.B.4
Which shape has only one pair of opposite, equal angles?
Square
Kite
Rectangle
Parallelogram.
Kite
A kite has to one one set of opposite, equal angles.
A square and a rectangle have equal angles.
A parallelogram has two sets of opposite, equal angles.
Example Question #2 : Classify Two Dimensional Figures: Ccss.Math.Content.5.G.B.4
Which shape has two pairs of adjacent sides, with the adjacent sides being equal in length?
Rectangle
Parallelogram
Kite
Trapezoid
Kite
A kite has two sets of adjacent sides, and the adjacent sides have equal lengths.
A rectangle, parallelogram, and trapezoid do not have adjacent sides that are qual in length.
