Shapes
Download this sheet of quadrilaterals. Sort the quadrilaterals using Venn Diagrams according to:
number of equal sides
number of pairs of equal opposite sides
number of pairs of parallel sides
number of right angles
Click on the following link to bring up the Virtual Pinboard (you need to scroll down).
Use the pinboard to answer the following questions in a screencast:
Can a quadrilateral have one angle that is greater than 180°?
Can a quadrilateral have exactly three right angles?
If the angles of a quadrilateral are all equal, are the sides all equal?
Can a quadrilateral have two obtuse angles?
Can a quadrilateral have four acute angles?
Can a quadrilateral have three acute angles?
If both pairs of opposite sides are parallel, are they also equal length?
If both pairs of opposite sides are equal length, are they also parallel?
