Let’s go shape by shape and count the angles and sides.
Remember:
- A
side is a straight line that makes up the edge of the shape.
- An
angle is where two sides meet (a corner).
We’ll look at each shape one at a time.
---
Top row, left: Triangle
- It has 3 straight sides.
- It has 3 corners → so 3 angles.
→ 3 angles, 3 sides
Top row, right: Hexagon (6-sided)
- Count the sides: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 → 6 sides
- Each corner is an angle → 6 angles
→ 6 angles, 6 sides
---
Second row, left: Octagon (8-sided)
- Sides: 8
- Angles: 8
→ 8 angles, 8 sides
Second row, right: Rectangle
- 4 sides (top, bottom, left, right)
- 4 corners → 4 angles
→ 4 angles, 4 sides
---
Third row, left: Circle
- A circle has NO straight sides — it’s all curved.
- No corners → no angles.
→ 0 angles, 0 sides
Third row, right: Hexagon again (6-sided)
- Same as top right → 6 sides, 6 angles
→ 6 angles, 6 sides
---
Bottom row, left: Square
- 4 equal sides
- 4 corners → 4 angles
→ 4 angles, 4 sides
Bottom row, right: Pentagon (5-sided)
- 5 sides
- 5 corners → 5 angles
→ 5 angles, 5 sides
---
Final Answer:
Triangle: 3 angles, 3 sides
Hexagon (top right): 6 angles, 6 sides
Octagon: 8 angles, 8 sides
Rectangle: 4 angles, 4 sides
Circle: 0 angles, 0 sides
Hexagon (third row right): 6 angles, 6 sides
Square: 4 angles, 4 sides
Pentagon: 5 angles, 5 sides
