Assignment Due Friday March 24th

You answer this assignment you must reply to this post as a comment. You CANNOT answer this assignment by creating a post on your classroom blog.

This assignment has two parts.

Part 1: There are 5 different types of quadrilaterals (4 sided polygons). I need you to tell me what these five polygons are called, and what the difference is between them. It would be great if you could find pictures of the quadrilaterals, but it is not required.


Part 2. There are 6 different types of triangles. 3 of them are based upon their sides (all three the same, two the same or all unique in length) and three of them based upon their interior angles.

You need you to tell me two types of triangles based upon their sides, and two types of triangles based upon their angles.

Have fun searching everyone! HINT:Remember that google is a powerful tool

  • Part 1: They are all listed below

    - Square
    A Square is with sides of equal length that are positioned at right angles to each other.

    - Rectangle
    A rectangle is a closed side with opposite sides of equal lengths and and with four right angles.

    - Trapoziod
    A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with two sides parallel.

    - Parralellogram
    A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with opposite sides parallel.

    - Rhombus
    A quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides parallel and all the sides are the same length.

    Part 2: They are all listed below

    1. Acute/scalene triangle

    2. Equilateral triangle

    3. Isosceles triangle

    4. Obtues/scalene triangle

    5. Isosceles right triangle

    6. Right triangle

    Well lets start with the triangle based upon their sides.

    - An isosceles triangle is a triangle with (at least) two equal sides. It also with the equilateral

    Well lets finish this with the interior angles.

    - A right triangle is a triangle with an angle of a 90 degree. It goes for the same of isosceles triangle.

    Well it sums everything up I guess. Im ready for the next one.

    Parallelogram: when a figure or shape that has four sides and two are parallel

    Rhombus:a four-sided shape that has two acute and obtuce angles

    Trapizoid: A four-sided shape that has two parallel sides(The parallel sides are called the bases of the trapezoid) and has 2 that are not parallel

    square: a shape that has four right angles and has 4 equal sides

    rectangle: a shape that has four right angles, but it doesn't have equal sides

    Part 2. There are 6 different types of triangles. 3 of them are based upon their sides (all three the same, two the same or all unique in length) and three of them based upon their interior angles.

    BASED ON SIDE:
    eqilateral triangle,isosceles triangle and scalene triangle
    BASED ON ANGLE:
    obtuce triangle, acute triangle and right triangle
