- 2.What does the statement AB = CD mean, where A, B, C and D are all points?
- 3.A quadrilateral has both pairs of opposite sides parallel and equal in length, but none of its angles are right angles. Which statement about this quadrilateral is correct?
- 4.A polygon has one more side than a heptagon. What is the polygon called?
- 5.A regular polygon has 5 lines of symmetry. What is the order of rotational symmetry of this polygon?
- 6.A rhombus has all four sides equal in length. Which statement about a rhombus is correct?
- 7.A polygon has 12 straight sides. What is the mathematical name for this polygon?
- 8.Which of the following correctly describes what it means for two lines to be perpendicular?
- 9.Which of the following is the correct definition of a regular polygon?
- 10.A surveyor is marking out field ABCD for a new crop. The plan states that side AB is parallel to side DC, but AB and DC are not equal in length, and sides BC and AD are not parallel to each other. Which term correctly describes the shape of field ABCD?
- 11.A triangular prism has two triangular faces and three rectangular faces. How many vertices does a triangular prism have?
- 12.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?
- 13.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?
- 14.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?
- 15.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?
