Fill in the blanks with yes or no.
Example
Is this a square? yes
Question 1.
Is this a rectangle? ____
Answer:
No, The above figure is not a rectangle.
Question 2.
Is this a square? ____
Answer:
No, The above figure is not a square.
Question 3.
Is this a rectangle? ___
Answer:
No, The above figure is not a rectangle.
Fill in the blanks.
Example
Is this a square? Yes
Why or why not? All its sides are of equal length, and it has four right angles.
Question 6.
Is this a rectangle? ____
Why or why not? ________
Answer:
Yes
A rectangle is a type of quadrilateral that has its parallel sides equal to each other and all the four vertices are equal to 90 degrees. Hence, it is also called an equiangular quadrilateral.
Question 7.
Is this a rectangle? ____
Why or why not? ________
Answer:
No
A Rectangle is a four sided-polygon, having all the internal angles equal to 90 degrees. The two sides at each corner or vertex, meet at right angles. The opposite sides of the rectangle are equal in length which makes it different from a square. The above figure is a square because all sides are of equal length.
Question 8.
Is this a rectangle? ____
Why or why not? ________
Answer:
Yes
A rectangle is a type of quadrilateral that has its parallel sides equal to each other and all the four vertices are equal to 90 degrees. Hence, it is also called an equiangular quadrilateral.
Find the lengths of the unknown sides.
Example
ABCD is a square.
Question 9.
EFGH is a rectangle.
EF = ______ cm
EH = ______ cm
Answer:
EF = 2 cm
EH = 7 cm
Explanation:
In the above image we can observe a rectangle of EFGH. A rectangle is a type of quadrilateral that has its parallel sides equal to each other and all the four vertices are equal to 90 degrees.
Question 10.
PQRS is a square.
SR = __ ft
Answer:
SR = 10 feet
Explanation:
In the above image we can observe a square of PQRS. A square is a plane figure with four equal straight sides and four right angles.
Question 11.
ABCD is a rectangle.
Its length is twice its width.
AB = __ yd
Answer:
Width = 14 yards
Length = 2 x width
= 2 x 14
= 28 yards
AB = 28 yards
Explanation:
In the above image we can observe a rectangle ABCD. A rectangle is a type of quadrilateral that has its parallel sides equal to each other and all the four vertices are equal to 90 degrees.
Draw a line segment to break up each figure into two rectangles.
