Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Identifying Quadrilateral worksheet
To solve this, we need to look at the properties of each shape (sides and angles) and match them to the correct name from the list provided.

Here is the step-by-step logic for each number:

1. Shape 1: It has 4 right angles (square corners) and opposite sides are equal. This is a rectangle.
2. Shape 2: It has exactly one pair of parallel sides (top and bottom). The other two sides slant inwards. This is a trapezoid.
3. Shape 3: It has 4 right angles and opposite sides are equal. Even though it is tilted, it is still a rectangle.
4. Shape 4: It has 4 equal sides and 4 right angles. This is a square.
5. Shape 5: It has exactly one pair of parallel sides (the vertical ones). This makes it a trapezoid.
6. Shape 6: It has 4 equal sides, but the angles are not right angles (they are slanted). This is a rhombus.
7. Shape 7: Opposite sides are parallel and equal in length, but there are no right angles. This is a parallelogram.
8. Shape 8: It has 4 right angles and opposite sides are equal. This is a rectangle.
9. Shape 9: It has exactly one pair of parallel sides (the vertical ones). This is a trapezoid.
10. Shape 10: It has exactly one pair of parallel sides (the vertical ones). This is a trapezoid.
11. Shape 11: Opposite sides are parallel and equal, but there are no right angles. This is a parallelogram.
12. Shape 12: It has 4 right angles and opposite sides are equal. This is a rectangle.

*(Note: While all these shapes are technically "quadrilaterals" because they have 4 sides, in these types of worksheets, you usually pick the most specific name available in the list.)*

Final Answer:
1) rectangle
2) trapezoid
3) rectangle
4) square
5) trapezoid
6) rhombus
7) parallelogram
8) rectangle
9) trapezoid
10) trapezoid
11) parallelogram
12) rectangle
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of identifying quadrilaterals.
