To solve this problem, we need to look at the rocket picture Sam made and identify every different 2D shape used to build it.
Step 1: Look at the top of the rocket.
The very top point of the rocket is a triangle. It is orange.
Step 2: Look at the main body of the rocket.
The long middle part where the windows are is a rectangle. It is dark blue.
Step 3: Look at the windows.
Inside the blue rectangle, there are two round shapes. These are circles. They are cream or light yellow colored.
Step 4: Look at the bottom sides (the fins).
On the left and right sides at the bottom, there are two more triangles pointing outwards. These are also orange.
Step 5: List all the unique shapes found.
- Triangles (one on top, two on the sides)
- Rectangle (the body)
- Circles (the windows)
Final Answer:
Sam used
triangles, a
rectangle, and
circles to compose his picture.
