- 1.A quadrilateral has all four sides equal in length and all four interior angles equal to 90°. Its diagonals are equal in length and bisect each other at right angles. Which quadrilateral matches this description exactly?
- 2.A rhombus has all four sides equal in length. Which statement about a rhombus is correct?
- 3.Which of these correctly compares a 'line' with a 'line segment'?
- 4.A triangle has vertices X, Y and Z, with a right angle at Y. Side XY is twice as long as side YZ. Which of the following correctly describes this triangle?
- 5.In quadrilateral WXYZ, which of the following correctly names the angle at vertex Y using standard notation?
- 6.A regular polygon has 5 lines of symmetry. What is the order of rotational symmetry of this polygon?
- 7.A triangular prism has two triangular faces and three rectangular faces. How many vertices does a triangular prism have?
- 8.A polygon has one more side than a heptagon. What is the polygon called?
- 9.What does the statement AB = CD mean, where A, B, C and D are all points?
- 10.Lines AB and CD cross at a point, forming four right angles where they meet. Which notation correctly describes the relationship between AB and CD?
- 11.A rhombus has all four sides equal in length, but it is not a square — its angles are not all 90°. How many lines of symmetry does this rhombus have?
- 12.An isosceles trapezium has exactly one pair of parallel sides, and its two non-parallel sides are equal in length. How many lines of symmetry does it have?
- 13.Which of the following is the correct definition of a regular polygon?
- 14.A tile manufacturer cuts a hexagonal tile so that all six sides measure exactly 4 cm, but a check shows only two pairs of the six interior angles are equal to each other, not all six angles. The customer's order specifies regular hexagonal tiles. Based on the check, is this tile a regular hexagon?
- 15.A textbook contains the instruction 'Draw AB' and, on the next line, the statement 'AB = 5 cm'. Which statement about the notation AB is correct?
