📐 Part 1: Shape Identification and Properties

1. Circle the correct number of sides for each shape:

Triangle: 2 sides 3 sides 4 sides

Pentagon: 4 sides 5 sides 6 sides

Hexagon: 5 sides 6 sides 7 sides

2. Which shape has 4 equal sides and 4 right angles?

Rectangle

Square

Parallelogram

Triangle

3. Check all the properties that apply to a rectangle:

4 sides

4 right angles

All sides equal length

Opposite sides equal length

2 lines of symmetry

4. Complete the table by filling in the missing information:

Circle: _____ sides, _____ angles, _____ lines of symmetry

Equilateral Triangle: _____ sides, _____ angles, _____ lines of symmetry

🔍 Part 2: Lines of Symmetry and Analysis

5. Draw all the lines of symmetry for each shape in the drawing box below:

Hint: Use a mirror to help you find lines of symmetry

6. Which type of angle is found in a regular hexagon?

Right angle (90°)

Acute angle (less than 90°)

Obtuse angle (more than 90°)

7. Explain the difference between a parallelogram and a rectangle:

8. How might understanding shape properties help you in sports, dance, or everyday physical activities? Give one example.
