- 1.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?
- 2.What does the statement AB = CD mean, where A, B, C and D are all points?
- 3.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?
- 4.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?
- 5.A rhombus has all four sides equal in length. Which statement about a rhombus is correct?
- 6.A triangular prism has two triangular faces and three rectangular faces. How many vertices does a triangular prism have?
- 7.In triangle XYZ, the side opposite vertex X is labelled using the standard lowercase-letter convention. Which label is correct?
- 8.In geometry, which of the following best describes a 'plane'?
- 9.Which of these correctly compares a 'line' with a 'line segment'?
- 10.Which of the following correctly describes what it means for two lines to be perpendicular?
- 11.A quadrilateral has two pairs of parallel sides. All four of its interior angles are right angles, but its sides are not all the same length. Which quadrilateral is this?
- 12.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?
- 13.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?
- 14.A polygon has 9 sides. What is the name of this polygon?
