- 1.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?
- 2.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?
- 3.A rhombus has all four sides equal in length. Which statement about a rhombus is correct?
- 4.What does the statement AB = CD mean, where A, B, C and D are all points?
- 5.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?
- 6.A polygon has one more side than a heptagon. What is the polygon called?
- 7.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?
- 8.A polygon has 12 straight sides. What is the mathematical name for this polygon?
- 9.In triangle XYZ, the side opposite vertex X is labelled using the standard lowercase-letter convention. Which label is correct?
- 10.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?
- 11.In quadrilateral WXYZ, which of the following correctly names the angle at vertex Y using standard notation?
- 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.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.In geometry, which of the following best describes a 'plane'?
- 15.In quadrilateral ABCD, side AB is parallel to side DC. Which statement correctly uses geometric notation to show this?
