Example Questions
Example Question #4 : Understand Categories And Subcategories Of Two Dimensional Figures: Ccss.Math.Content.5.G.B.3
Which of the shapes is NOT a quadrilateral?
Trapezoid
Hexagon
Rectangle
Rhombus
Square
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 : Understand Categories And Subcategories Of Two Dimensional Figures: Ccss.Math.Content.5.G.B.3
Which of the following shapes is NOT a parallelogram?
Kite
Rhombus
Rectangle
Square
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?
A trapezoid has to have equal side lengths
An isosceles trapezoid has to have equal base angles
An isosceles trapezoid has to have equal side lengths
There is no difference between them
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 #7 : Shape Properties
Which shape is NOT a quadrilateral?
Rhombus
Rectangle
Circle
Trapezoid
Kite
Circle
A quadrilateral has to have sides, a circle does not have any sides.
Example Question #6 : Understand Categories And Subcategories Of Two Dimensional Figures: Ccss.Math.Content.5.G.B.3
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 #581 : Plane Geometry
What is the difference between an equilateral triangle and a scalene triangle?
The sum of their side lengths
The sum of their angle measurements
The length of their sides
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 #11 : Shape Properties
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.
rectangle
rhombus
square
quadrilateral
All four categories are correct.
All four categories are correct.
Example Question #821 : Geometry
What other shape can a parallelogram be classified as?
Triangle
Rhombus
Rectangle
Quadrilateral
Square
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 #62 : Geometry
Which shape has only one pair of opposite, equal angles?
Square
Kite
Parallelogram.
Rectangle
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 #63 : Geometry
Which shape has two pairs of adjacent sides, with the adjacent sides being equal in length?
Kite
Rectangle
Parallelogram
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.
