What is the name of this polygon? How do you know?

This is a heptagon. It has seven sides.


200

What is the difference between "Plane Geometry" and "Solid Geometry"? BONUS 200: Give 2 examples of each.

Plane Geometry: the study of flat, 2D figures (triangle, square, circle, rectangle)

Solid Geometry: the study of 3D figures (rectangular prism, cube, cylinder, sphere, pyramid, cone)

200

What is the name of this tool? What is the difference between these two tools?

This is a set square. One is a 45º set square and the other is a 30º/60º set square.

200

What is the definition of a "Polygonal Shape"?

A polygonal shape is a closed flat figure formed by connecting line segments.

200

What is the name of this polygon? How do you know?

This is a trapezium. It is a quadrilateral with only two parallel sides.


300

What are the elements of a circumference? HINT: there are 5 total elements.

Arc, radius, diameter, centre and chord.

300

What do the R and the D stand for in the image?

Radius and Diameter

300

Name 3 types of triangles. BONUS 200: Name all 6 types of triangles.

Equilateral, isosceles, scalene, right-angled, obtuse, acute

300

What is the name of this polygon? What polygon can fit IN the shape?

This is a regular pentagon. A 5-star polygon can fit in the pentagon.


400

Which type of line NEVER cross each other? BONUS 500: Name the other 2 types of lines and what is the difference between the 2 other types.

Parallel lines NEVER cross.

BONUS:

Oblique Lines: cross at ANY angle EXCEPT 90º.

Perpendicular Lines: cross to FORM a right angle of 90º.

400

What type of relative position do these circumferences have?

Concentric circumferences


400

What is the difference between a trapezium and a trapezoid?

A trapezium is a quadrilateral with only TWO parallel sides.

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with NO parallel lines.

400

Name the quadrilaterals: a, b, and d.

BONUS 200: Name all the quadrilaterals.


(a) rectangle, (b) square, (c) parallelogram; (d) rhombus and (e) kite

500

What is the difference between a ray and a segment?

A ray is a line with a point marked on it.

A segment is a part of a line marked by two points.

500

What are the differences between these lines?

Perpendicular lines (cross at 90º) and Oblique lines (cross at any angle EXCEPT 90º)


500
