Question 1
Which shape always has 4 equal sides and 4 right angles?
Correct answer: A
A square has both: 4 equal sides and 4 right angles. A rhombus always has 4 equal sides, but its angles do not have to be right angles.
-
Question 2
Which shape is NOT a quadrilateral?
Correct answer: C
A quadrilateral has exactly 4 sides. A pentagon has 5 sides, so it is not a quadrilateral.
-
Question 3
What is always true about a rhombus?
Correct answer: D
Every rhombus has 4 sides of the same length. Some rhombuses have right angles (squares), but most do not.
-
Question 4
Which statement is true?
Correct answer: B
A rectangle needs 4 sides and 4 right angles, and every square has those. Not every rectangle is a square, because a rectangle can have 2 long sides and 2 short sides.
-
Question 5
A garden is divided into 4 parts that all have the same area. What fraction of the whole garden is each part?
Correct answer: B
When a whole is split into 4 equal parts, each part is 14 of the whole. 44 is all 4 parts together.
-
Question 6
A hexagon is divided into 6 equal triangles. 2 of the triangles are shaded. What fraction of the hexagon is shaded?
Correct answer: A
2 of 6 equal parts are shaded, so the shaded part is 26. 46 is the part that is not shaded.
-
Question 7
A shape has 4 sides and 4 right angles. Its sides are not all the same length. What is the shape?
Correct answer: D
Four right angles with two long and two short sides make a rectangle. It cannot be a square, because a square has 4 equal sides.
-
Question 8
Sam draws a quadrilateral with 4 equal sides and no right angles. Which shape did he draw?
Correct answer: C
A quadrilateral with 4 equal sides is a rhombus. It is not a square or a rectangle, because those shapes have right angles.
-
Question 9
A sandwich is cut into 3 pieces. What must be true for each piece to be 13 of the sandwich?
Correct answer: B
A fraction like one third means one of 3 parts with the same area. The pieces may have any shape, as long as they are equal in size.
-
Question 10
Lena draws a shape with 4 equal sides and 4 right angles. Which list includes every correct name for her shape?
Correct answer: C
The shape is a square. It also has 4 right angles, so it is a rectangle, and it has 4 equal sides, so it is a rhombus too.
