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
