Example Questions
Example Question #41 : Geometry
Which of the following shapes is NOT a quadrilateral?
Rhombus
Kite
Square
Triangle
Rectangle
Triangle
A quadrilateral is any two-dimensional shape with sides. The only shape listed that does not have
sides is a triangle.
Example Question #42 : Geometry
What is the main difference between a square and a rectangle?
Their angle measurments
Their side lengths
Their color
The number of sides they each have
The sum of their angles
Their side lengths
The only difference between a rectangle and a square is their side lengths. A square has to have equal side lengths, but the opposite side lengths of a rectangle only have to be equal.
Example Question #1 : Understand Categories And Subcategories Of Two Dimensional Figures: Ccss.Math.Content.5.G.B.3
What two shapes can a square be classified as?
Trapezoid and Triangle
Trapezoid and Rhombus
Rhombus and Triangle
Rectangle and Triangle
Rectangle and Rhombus
Rectangle and Rhombus
A square can also be a rectangle and a rhombus because a rectangle has to have at least sets of equal side lengths and a rhombus has to have
equal side lengths, like a square, and at least
sets of equal angles.
Example Question #811 : Geometry
What is the main difference between a triangle and a rectangle?
The volume
The color
The area
The number of sides
The length of the sides
The number of sides
Out of the choices given, the only characteristic used to describe shapes is the number of sides. A triangle has sides and a rectangle has
sides.
Example Question #3 : Understand Categories And Subcategories Of Two Dimensional Figures: Ccss.Math.Content.5.G.B.3
Which two shapes have to have right angles?
Rectangle and Rhombus
Square and Rhombus
Square and Rectangle
Rectangle and Parallelogram
Square and Parallelogram
Square and Rectangle
By definition, the only two quadrilaterals that have to have right angles, are the square and the rectangle.
Example Question #2 : How To Find The Area Of A Parallelogram
Which of the shapes is NOT a quadrilateral?
Square
Rectangle
Trapezoid
Hexagon
Rhombus
Hexagon
A quadrilateral is a sided shape. The only shape listed that does not have
sides is a hexagon, which has
sides.
Example Question #2 : Shape Properties
Which of the following shapes is NOT a parallelogram?
Rectangle
Kite
Square
Rhombus
Kite
A rectangle, square, and rhombus can all be classified as a parallelogram because each shape has opposite side lengths that are equal. A kite does not.
Example Question #584 : Plane Geometry
What is the difference between a trapezoid and a isosceles trapezoid?
An isosceles trapezoid has to have equal side lengths
A trapezoid has to have equal base angles
A trapezoid has to have equal side lengths
There is no difference between them
An isosceles trapezoid has to have equal base angles
An isosceles trapezoid has to have equal base angles
By definition, an isosceles trapezoid has to have equal base angles, but a trapezoid does not have to have equal angles.
Example Question #585 : Plane Geometry
Which shape is NOT a quadrilateral?
Kite
Circle
Rhombus
Trapezoid
Rectangle
Circle
A quadrilateral has to have sides, a circle does not have any sides.
Example Question #1 : Right Triangles
What is the main difference between a right triangle and an isosceles triangle?
A right triangle has to have a angle and an isosceles triangle has to have
equal, base angles.
A right triangle has to have a angle and an isosceles triangle has to have
equal, base angles.
A right triangle has to have a angle and an isosceles triangle has to have
equal, base angles.
A right triangle has to have a angle and an isosceles triangle has to have
equal, base angles.
An isosceles triangle has to have a angle and a right triangle has to have
equal, base angles.
A right triangle has to have a angle and an isosceles triangle has to have
equal, base angles.
By definition, a right triangle has to have one right angle, or a angle, and an isosceles triangle has
equal base angles and two equal side lengths.
