Explanation:
Each shape has a distinct geometric property that helps in identifying its name:
- A
star has multiple points extending outward.
- A
rectangle has four right angles and opposite sides of equal length.
- A
circle is a perfectly round shape with all points equidistant from the center.
- A
pentagon has five straight sides.
- An
octagon has eight straight sides.
- An
arrow has a triangular head and a pointed tail.
- A
parallelogram has opposite sides that are parallel and equal in length.
- An
oval is an elongated, rounded shape resembling an ellipse.
By carefully observing these properties, we can correctly match each shape with its name.
