Step-by-step solution for: 2nd Grade Math Worksheets - Geometry - 3D Shape Names - Shape ...
Let’s go step by step to match each 3D shape with its correct name using the word bank provided.
We are given these shapes (in order from top to bottom, left to right):
1. Cone – It has a circular base and comes to a point at the top.
2. Square Pyramid – It has a square base and four triangular sides meeting at a point.
3. Sphere – A perfectly round ball-like shape.
4. Rectangular Prism – Like a box; all faces are rectangles.
5. Cube – A special rectangular prism where all sides are equal squares.
6. Cylinder – Has two flat circular bases and one curved side.
7. Triangular Prism – Has two triangular bases and three rectangular sides.
8. Hemisphere – Half of a sphere, like a dome.
9. Cuboid – Another name for a rectangular prism (sometimes used interchangeably, but in this worksheet, “cuboid” is listed separately — so we’ll assign it to the longer rectangular box that isn’t a cube).
Wait — let’s check the image layout again carefully.
Looking at the positions:
Top row:
- Left: Cone → label: cone
- Middle: Square pyramid → label: square pyramid
- Right: Sphere → label: sphere
Middle row:
- Left: Rectangular prism (long box) → label: rectangular prism or cuboid? The word bank includes both. But note: “cuboid” is often used for any rectangular prism, while “rectangular prism” is more specific. However, since both are listed, we must assign them correctly based on common usage in such worksheets.
Actually, looking at the shapes:
There are TWO rectangular boxes:
- One is long and flat → likely cuboid
- One is more balanced → could be rectangular prism, but wait — there’s also a cube.
Let me list all 9 shapes clearly by position:
Row 1:
1. Cone → cone
2. Square pyramid → square pyramid
3. Sphere → sphere
Row 2:
4. Long rectangular box (with dashed lines showing depth) → This is a cuboid (since “cuboid” is in the word bank and typically refers to non-cube rectangular prisms)
5. Cube → cube
6. Cylinder → cylinder
Row 3:
7. Triangular prism → triangular prism
8. Hemisphere → hemisphere
9. Another rectangular box (shorter, wider) → This should be rectangular prism
But wait — the word bank has:
- sphere
- cone
- cube
- cuboid
- cylinder
- square pyramid
- triangular prism
- rectangular prism
- hemisphere
That’s exactly 9 words — matching the 9 shapes.
So now, assign each shape to its correct term:
Shape 1 (top left): Cone → cone
Shape 2 (top middle): Square pyramid → square pyramid
Shape 3 (top right): Sphere → sphere
Shape 4 (middle left): Long rectangular box → cuboid (commonly used for elongated rectangular prisms)
Shape 5 (middle center): Cube → cube
Shape 6 (middle right): Cylinder → cylinder
Shape 7 (bottom left): Triangular prism → triangular prism
Shape 8 (bottom middle): Hemisphere → hemisphere
Shape 9 (bottom right): Shorter rectangular box → rectangular prism
Yes — this uses all 9 terms without repetition.
Now, the student is supposed to trace the shape and write the name in the letter boxes below each shape. Since we’re not tracing, we just need to provide the correct label for each.
Final Answer:
From top to bottom, left to right:
1. cone
2. square pyramid
3. sphere
4. cuboid
5. cube
6. cylinder
7. triangular prism
8. hemisphere
9. rectangular prism

Final Answer:
cone, square pyramid, sphere, cuboid, cube, cylinder, triangular prism, hemisphere, rectangular prism
