A square is a...

• quadrilateral

• parallelogram

• trapezoid

• kite

• rhombus

Answer explanation

A square is a type of quadrilateral with four equal sides and angles. It is also a parallelogram (opposite sides are parallel), a rhombus (all sides equal), and a kite (two pairs of adjacent sides equal).

A rhombus is a...

• quadrilateral

• parallelogram

• trapezoid

• kite

• square

Answer explanation

A rhombus is a type of quadrilateral with all sides equal and opposite angles equal, making it a parallelogram. It also fits the definition of a kite, as it has two pairs of adjacent sides that are equal.

A kite is a...

• quadrilateral

• parallelogram

• trapezoid

• rectangle

• square

Answer explanation

A kite is a type of quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides that are equal. It does not fit the definitions of parallelogram, trapezoid, rectangle, or square, making 'quadrilateral' the correct choice.

A rectangle is a...

• quadrilateral

• parallelogram

• trapezoid

• kite

• square

Answer explanation

A rectangle is a type of quadrilateral because it has four sides. It is also a parallelogram since opposite sides are parallel and equal in length, making both options correct.

A parallelogram is a...

• quadrilateral

• rectangle

• trapezoid

• kite

• square

Answer explanation

A parallelogram is a type of quadrilateral, which means it has four sides. The other options, such as rectangle, trapezoid, kite, and square, are specific types of quadrilaterals, but all parallelograms are quadrilaterals.

A trapezoid is a...

• quadrilateral

• rectangle

• trapezoid

• kite

• square

Answer explanation

A trapezoid is defined as a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides. Therefore, the correct answer is 'quadrilateral', as it encompasses all four-sided figures, including trapezoids.

Select all the names for this shape.

• Quadrilateral

• Parallelogram

• Trapezoid

• Kite

Answer explanation

The shape is a quadrilateral, which is any four-sided figure. While it could potentially fit other categories like parallelogram or trapezoid, those depend on specific properties not stated in the question.

Select all the names for this shape.

• Quadrilateral

• Parallelogram

• Kite

• Rectangle

Answer explanation

The shape is a quadrilateral because it has four sides. It is also a parallelogram since opposite sides are parallel, and a rectangle as it has right angles. A kite is not correct as it does not fit the properties of the shape.

Select all the names for this shape.

• Quadrilateral

• Parallelogram

• Kite

• Rectangle

Answer explanation

A quadrilateral has four sides, making it a valid name for the shape. A kite is a specific type of quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides that are equal. The other options do not apply.

Select all the names for this shape.

• Quadrilateral

• Parallelogram

• Kite

• Rhombus

• Trapezoid

Answer explanation

The shape is a quadrilateral, which includes all four-sided figures. It can also be classified as a parallelogram (opposite sides are parallel), a kite (two pairs of adjacent sides are equal), and a rhombus (all sides are equal).
