What does the term 'perimeter' refer to?
The area inside a shape
The number of sides of a shape
The total distance around the edge of a shape
The measure of a shape's angles
Perimeter is defined as the distance around a shape. It is calculated by adding the lengths of all the sides, not by determining the area or counting the sides.
A rectangle has a length of 8 cm and a width of 3 cm. What is its perimeter?
26 cm
16 cm
24 cm
22 cm
The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated as 2 times the sum of its length and width: 2*(8 + 3) = 22 cm. This formula is standard for rectangles.
If a right triangle has one 90° angle and the other two angles are equal, what are the measures of the other two angles?
60° and 60°
90° and 0°
30° and 60°
45° and 45°
In a right triangle, the sum of the angles must equal 180°. With one angle at 90°, the remaining 90° is equally divided between the two identical angles, making them 45° each.
What is the area of a rectangle with a length of 5 cm and a width of 3 cm?
15 square centimeters
8 square centimeters
10 square centimeters
18 square centimeters
The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying its length by its width. Therefore, 5 cm x 3 cm = 15 square centimeters.
Which property is true for all squares?
They have two pairs of equal sides
Only opposite sides are equal
All four sides are equal in length and all four angles are 90°
All angles are acute
A square is uniquely defined by having four sides of equal length and four right angles (90° each). This sets it apart from other quadrilaterals that may have only pairs of equal sides.
How many lines of symmetry does a rectangle (that is not a square) have?
4
2
0
1
A rectangle that is not a square has two lines of symmetry: one vertical and one horizontal. Diagonals in a non-square rectangle do not provide symmetrical halves.
Which type of angle measures exactly 90°?
Straight angle
Obtuse angle
Acute angle
Right angle
A right angle is defined as an angle that measures exactly 90°. This distinguishes it clearly from acute angles (less than 90°) and obtuse angles (more than 90°).
What is the name of a polygon with five sides?
Quadrilateral
Pentagon
Octagon
Hexagon
A polygon with five sides is called a pentagon. Each polygon's name is derived from the number of sides it possesses.
What is the main difference between a square and a rectangle?
A square always has one curved side
There is no difference; they are the same shape
A rectangle has more corners than a square
A square has all sides equal in length, while a rectangle does not necessarily have all sides equal
The primary difference is that a square has four sides of equal length, whereas a rectangle only requires opposite sides to be equal. This affects both the shape's appearance and its geometric properties.
A regular polygon has all sides and angles equal. Which of the following is a regular polygon?
Rectangle
Equilateral triangle
Scalene triangle
Irregular quadrilateral
An equilateral triangle has all sides and angles equal, making it a regular polygon. The other options do not meet the strict criteria of equal sides and angles.
A square has a diagonal that splits it into two congruent triangles. What type of triangle is formed?
Scalene triangle
Isosceles right triangle
Obtuse triangle
Equilateral triangle
When a square is divided by its diagonal, it creates two congruent isosceles right triangles. Each triangle has a 90° angle and two equal sides.
Calculate the perimeter of an isosceles trapezoid with bases of 10 cm and 6 cm and legs of 4 cm each.
20 cm
28 cm
24 cm
30 cm
The perimeter is the sum of all sides: 10 cm + 6 cm + 4 cm + 4 cm equals 24 cm. Adding the lengths of each side gives the correct perimeter.
Which is the best description of a line of symmetry in a two-dimensional shape?
A line that divides the shape into two mirror-image halves
A line drawn outside of the shape
A line that splits the shape into triangles
A line that divides a shape into equal areas but not mirror images
A line of symmetry divides a shape into two halves that are mirror images of each other. This concept is fundamental in understanding reflective symmetry in geometry.
If a rectangle and a square have the same perimeter, which one always has the larger area?
It depends on the dimensions
Rectangle
Both have equal area
Square
Among rectangles with a fixed perimeter, the square has the largest area because its equal sides maximize the enclosed space. This is a well-known optimization result in geometry.
A circle has a diameter of 10 cm. What is the circumference of the circle? (Use 3.14 as the value for π)
62.8 cm
25.4 cm
15.7 cm
31.4 cm
The circumference of a circle is calculated by multiplying the diameter by π. With a diameter of 10 cm, the circumference is 10 x 3.14 = 31.4 cm.
