Quadrilateral Categories

  • 1 Circle all the shapes that are quadrilaterals.

    • A A shape has 4 sides. Two of the sides are slanted.

    • B A shape has 4 sides. Opposite sides have the same length. Both pairs of sides are parallel.

    • C A shape has 6 sides. The top and bottom sides are parallel. The 2 sides on the left are equal to the 2 sides on the right.

    • D A shape has 4 sides. Opposite sides have the same length. The bottom left corner is farther to the left than the top left corner, and the top right corner is farther to the right than the bottom right corner.

    • E A shape has 5 sides. The bottom side is not equal to the other 4 sides.

    • F A shape has 4 sides. The sides are equal.

    • G A shape has 4 sides. Opposite sides are equal.

    • H A shape has 4 sides. None of the sides are equal. None of the sides are parallel.

    • I A shape has 3 sides. It has a right angle.

    • J A shape has 6 sides. The left and right sides are parallel.

  • 2 Put each circled quadrilateral into the categories below. Remember, shapes can be in more than one category!

    These quadrilaterals are parallelograms. _____________

    These quadrilaterals are rectangles. _____________

    These quadrilaterals are rhombuses. _____________

  • 3 Which of the quadrilaterals that you circled have angles that are greater than 90°? _____________

Ongoing Review

  • 4 Which quadrilateral is not a parallelogram?

    • A Quadrilateral A has 4 sides. The sides are equal.

    • B Quadrilateral B has 4 sides. Two of the sides are slanted.

    • C Quadrilateral C has 4 sides. Opposite sides are equal.

    • D Quadrilateral D has 4 sides. Opposite sides have the same length. The bottom left is farther to the left than the top left, and the top right is farther to the right than the bottom right.

NOTE

Students identify quadrilaterals and then categorize them by type.
