- 1.A regular polygon has 5 lines of symmetry. What is the order of rotational symmetry of this polygon?
- 2.A polygon has 9 sides. What is the name of this polygon?
- 3.Which of these correctly compares a 'line' with a 'line segment'?
- 4.A triangular prism has two triangular faces and three rectangular faces. How many vertices does a triangular prism have?
- 5.What does the statement AB = CD mean, where A, B, C and D are all points?
- 6.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?
- 7.A polygon has one more side than a heptagon. What is the polygon called?
- 8.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?
- 9.In geometry, which of the following best describes a 'plane'?
- 10.Which of the following is the correct definition of a regular polygon?
- 11.Point M lies exactly halfway between point A and point B, with A, M and B all on the same straight line. Which term correctly describes point M?
- 12.In triangle XYZ, the side opposite vertex X is labelled using the standard lowercase-letter convention. Which label is correct?
- 13.A written description of a diagram states: 'AB is marked with a single arrow, CD is marked with a single arrow, and EF is marked with a double arrow.' Using the standard convention for marking parallel lines, what can be concluded?
- 14.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?
- 15.In pentagon PQRST, which of the following correctly names the interior angle at vertex R, using standard three-letter angle notation?
