Drawing Geometric Shapes with Given Lengths of Sides

This lesson teaches how to draw geometric shapes using given side lengths. It covers different types of quadrilaterals and triangles, emphasizing that multiple shapes can be drawn with the same measurements. The lesson includes practical examples of drawing triangles and quadrilaterals, such as rectangles and parallelograms, and highlights common misconceptions about shape congruency.

What types of triangles can be drawn with one side measuring 7 units and another side measuring 9 units?

Describe the process of creating an isosceles triangle using the measurements provided in the lesson.

Explain how to draw a quadrilateral with two sides of 4 inches and two sides of 5 inches.

What is the difference between a rectangle and a parallelogram based on the sides used?

Can you create a rhombus with the given measurements of two sides of 4 inches and two sides of 5 inches? Why or why not?
