$$ DRAWING DUEL $$

Your chosen leader will go against an opponent (chosen by dojo random) from another team in a duel to see who can draw the geometry term called out by Sheriff Plourde.

The winner will receive DOUBLE POINTS for their team and title of Faster Draw this side of the Mississippi.


FINAL SAY is determined by Sheriff Plourde, any arguing or negative attitudes/remarks from group members will result in double points being TAKEN AWAY from the team responsible. EVEN IF THEY AREN'T IN THE DUEL.

Identify the types of polygons in order from the least number of sides to the greatest number of sides. Stating the type and number of sides. 

To help get you started here is the one for example... 

"A 3-sided polygon is called a triangle."


What is 

"A 4-sided polygon is called a quadrilateral."

"A 5-sided polygon is called a pentagon."

"A 6-sided polygon is called a hexagon."

"A 7-sided polygon is called a septagon or heptagon."

"An 8-sided polygon is called an octagon."

"A 9-sided polygon is called a nonagon."

"A 10-sided polygon is called a decagon."

300

Name ALL of the quadrilaterals that share the same attributes as parallelograms. 

What are square, rectangle, and rhombus?

400

Explain the difference between a right angle, an acute angle, and an obtuse angle. 

What is a right angle measures exactly 90o, an acute angle measures less than 90o, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90o?

400

Describe what an attribute is in geometry.

What are qualities, or features, that describe the characteristics of something; in geometry the special characteristics of polygons and quadrilaterals?

400

Each polygon and quadrilateral have _________, or exact, ____________.

What is specific attributes?

400

All quadrilaterals share these three attributes.

What is 4 sides, 4 angles, and they are polygons?

500

Explain what parallel, perpendicular, and intersecting lines are by drawing a diagram of each. Describe how you identify the types of lines.

What is parallel lines are lines that will NEVER intersect, or cross, we can identify these by two straight lines with equal distance between them. Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at right angles, we can identify these by two straight lines crossing creating 4 angles that measure exactly 90o. Intersecting lines are two lines that intersect, or cross, each other and create 4 angles of any measure, we can identify these by two bent lines crossing and creating angles larger and smaller than 90o.

$$ DRAWING DUEL $$

Your chosen leader will go against an opponent (chosen by dojo random) from another team in a duel to see who can draw the geometry term called out by Sheriff Plourde.

LET'S MAKE THIS A LITTLE BIT MORE INTERESTING....

The winner will have the choice to either KEEP the 500 points earned for their team or TAKE AWAY 500 points from one of the other teams. 

FINAL SAY is determined by Sheriff Plourde, any arguing or negative attitudes/remarks from group members will result in double points being TAKEN AWAY from the team responsible. EVEN IF THEY AREN'T IN THE DUEL.
