A trapezoid has exactly 1 right angle: Always Never Sometimes None of the Above

Sometimes Show how you know.

100

What does congruent mean?

Equal; same

100

A triangle with three different sized angles is called?

A scalene triangle

100

Is this statement true? All trapezoids have one pair of parallel sides.

Yes - this is true. 

100

 Is a square a rectangle? 

Yes, it is a special kind of rectangle with congruent sides.

200
Which of the following statements is true? All squares are rectangles. All rectangles are squares. No squares are rectangles.
All squares are rectangles.
200

What are perpendicular lines?

Lines that form 90 degree angles

200

A kite can be a parallelogram

No, a kite does not have 2 pairs of parallel lines.

200

Is it possible for a trapezoid to have two right angles? If so, draw an example

Yes

200

How is a rhombus a parallelogram?

A parallelogram has opposite sides congruent and 2 sets of parallel lines. A rhombus also has these attributes.

300
Which of the following statements is true? A parallelogram is a type of a square. A parallelogram is a type of a rhombus. A rectangle is a type of parallelogram.
A rectangle is a type of parallelogram.
300

Name two attributes that a square has.

Four right angles Four equal length sides

300

A rectangle has 4 right angles and a rhombus never has right angles.

False, when a rhombus is a square it has right angles.

300

Which attribute belongs to every rhombus, but does not belong to every parallelogram? A) All four sides have different lengths B) All four sides are equal in length C) The opposite sides are equal in length

B All four sides are equal in length. Prove with a representation why a rhombus has this attribute, but not every parallelogram does.

300

 How is a trapezoid different than a square?

A trapezoid has only one set of parallel sides; a square has 2

400
Which of the following statements is false? All quadrilaterals have exactly 4 sides. All quadrilaterals have parallel sides. All quadrilaterals have exactly 4 angles. All quadrilaterals are polygons.
All quadrilaterals have parallel sides.
400

Which of these shapes have opposite sides that are parallel? A Parallelogram B Rhombus C Both a parallelogram and a rhombus D Neither a parallelogram nor a rhombus

C Both a parallelogram and a rhombus

400

Some parallelograms are rectangles, and some rectangles are squares.

True

400

Is this statement true, based on the hierarchy of properties of polygons? Since all rectangles have four sides, all quadrilaterals have four sides.

Yes, this is a true statement based on the hierarchy - look at your flow chart to prove why this is true.

400

T/F All kites are squares

False

500
Every rhombus is a parallelogram. Always Sometimes Never
Always
500

Is the following statement true based on a hierarchy of properties of polygons? Since all rectangles have four sides and 2 sets of parallel lines, they are not quadrilaterals.

No

500


A quadrilateral with all four sides equal must be a square.


False

500
Draw a representation of the hierarchy (flow chart) of quadrilaterals - without looking at your chart as a reference. You should use the following terms: parallelogram, trapezoid, square, rhombus, and rectangle
Check your flow chart for accuracy.
