- 1.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?
- 2.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?
- 3.A triangular prism has two triangular faces and three rectangular faces. How many vertices does a triangular prism have?
- 4.A sign-maker is told a metal bracket outline must have two pairs of adjacent sides equal in length (not opposite pairs), exactly one pair of opposite angles equal, and exactly one line of symmetry. Which quadrilateral matches this description?
- 5.A polygon has 9 sides. What is the name of this polygon?
- 6.A polygon has 12 straight sides. What is the mathematical name for this polygon?
- 7.In quadrilateral WXYZ, which of the following correctly names the angle at vertex Y using standard notation?
- 8.A polygon has one more side than a heptagon. What is the polygon called?
- 9.Which of the following correctly describes what it means for two lines to be perpendicular?
- 10.In pentagon PQRST, which of the following correctly names the interior angle at vertex R, using standard three-letter angle notation?
- 11.Which of the following is the correct definition of a regular polygon?
- 12.In quadrilateral ABCD, side AB is parallel to side DC. Which statement correctly uses geometric notation to show this?
- 13.A regular polygon has 5 lines of symmetry. What is the order of rotational symmetry of this polygon?
- 14.A rhombus has all four sides equal in length. Which statement about a rhombus is correct?
- 15.A garden designer describes a flower bed as a shape with four straight sides: exactly one pair of sides is parallel, those two parallel sides are different lengths, and the other two sides are equal in length to each other but not parallel to each other. Which shape should the designer draw?
