Let’s match each shape to its correct name by looking at their properties.
1.
Blue slanted rectangle (left top) → This is a parallelogram. It has two pairs of parallel sides, but no right angles and not all sides equal.
2.
Green rectangle (left second from top) → This is a rectangle. It has four right angles and opposite sides equal.
3.
Purple square (left third from top) → This is a square. All sides are equal and all angles are 90 degrees.
4.
Pink slanted diamond (left fourth from top) → This is a rhombus. All sides are equal, but angles are not necessarily 90 degrees.
5.
Orange trapezoid (left bottom) → This is a trapezoid. Only one pair of opposite sides is parallel.
6.
Orange diamond (right top) → This is a kite. It has two pairs of adjacent sides that are equal, and one diagonal is a line of symmetry.
7.
Blue small square (right second from top) → This is also a square — same as the purple one, just smaller.
8.
Green trapezoid (right third from top) → This is a trapezoid — only one pair of parallel sides.
9.
Yellow slanted rectangle (right fourth from top) → This is a parallelogram — same as the blue one on the left.
10.
Red tall rectangle (right bottom) → This is a rectangle — long and thin, but still has four right angles.
Now let’s match them correctly:
- Blue slanted shape (left top) →
parallelogram
- Green rectangle (left) →
rectangle
- Purple square (left) →
square
- Pink slanted diamond (left) →
rhombus
- Orange trapezoid (left) →
trapezoid
- Orange diamond (right top) →
kite
- Blue small square (right) →
square
- Green trapezoid (right) →
trapezoid
- Yellow slanted shape (right) →
parallelogram
- Red tall rectangle (right) →
rectangle
But wait — we have duplicate names! That’s okay — multiple shapes can share the same name if they fit the definition.
Let’s list matches clearly:
Left column shapes (top to bottom):
1. Blue slanted → parallelogram
2. Green rectangle → rectangle
3. Purple square → square
4. Pink rhombus → rhombus
5. Orange trapezoid → trapezoid
Right column shapes (top to bottom):
6. Orange kite → kite
7. Blue small square → square
8. Green trapezoid → trapezoid
9. Yellow parallelogram → parallelogram
10. Red rectangle → rectangle
So the matching is:
- Square: purple square (left) and blue small square (right)
- Rectangle: green rectangle (left) and red rectangle (right)
- Rhombus: pink slanted diamond (left)
- Trapezoid: orange trapezoid (left) and green trapezoid (right)
- Parallelogram: blue slanted (left) and yellow slanted (right)
- Kite: orange diamond (right top)
All shapes are matched correctly based on their geometric properties.
Final Answer:
The shapes are matched as follows:
- Blue slanted (left top) → parallelogram
- Green rectangle (left) → rectangle
- Purple square (left) → square
- Pink slanted diamond (left) → rhombus
- Orange trapezoid (left) → trapezoid
- Orange diamond (right top) → kite
- Blue small square (right) → square
- Green trapezoid (right) → trapezoid
- Yellow slanted (right) → parallelogram
- Red tall rectangle (right) → rectangle
