- 1.In quadrilateral ABCD, side AB is parallel to side DC. Which statement correctly uses geometric notation to show this?
- 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.Which of these correctly compares a 'line' with a 'line segment'?
- 4.A polygon has one more side than a heptagon. What is the polygon called?
- 5.In quadrilateral WXYZ, which of the following correctly names the angle at vertex Y using standard notation?
- 6.A polygon has 12 straight sides. What is the mathematical name for this polygon?
- 7.In pentagon PQRST, which of the following correctly names the interior angle at vertex R, using standard three-letter angle notation?
- 8.In geometry, which of the following best describes a 'plane'?
- 9.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?
- 10.Which of the following is the correct definition of a regular polygon?
- 11.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?
- 12.What does the statement AB = CD mean, where A, B, C and D are all points?
- 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 triangular prism has two triangular faces and three rectangular faces. How many vertices does a triangular prism have?
- 15.A regular polygon has 5 lines of symmetry. What is the order of rotational symmetry of this polygon?
