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.
