To solve the problem of classifying the quadrilaterals in the worksheet, we need to identify each shape based on its properties. Let's go through each question step by step:
---
Question 1
Shape: A square
-
Properties of a square:
- All four sides are equal.
- All four angles are right angles (90°).
- The given shape matches these properties.
Answer: d) Square
---
Question 2
Shape: A parallelogram
-
Properties of a parallelogram:
- Opposite sides are parallel and equal.
- Opposite angles are equal.
- The given shape has opposite sides that appear parallel and equal, but it is not a rectangle, square, or trapezoid.
Answer: b) Parallelogram
---
Question 3
Shape: A trapezoid
-
Properties of a trapezoid:
- Exactly one pair of opposite sides is parallel.
- The given shape has one pair of parallel sides (the top and bottom), but the other two sides are not parallel.
Answer: d) Trapezoid
---
Question 4
Shape: A rhombus
-
Properties of a rhombus:
- All four sides are equal.
- Opposite angles are equal.
- The given shape has all sides equal, but the angles are not right angles, so it is not a square.
Answer: a) Rhombus
---
Question 5
Shape: A rectangle
-
Properties of a rectangle:
- Opposite sides are equal and parallel.
- All four angles are right angles (90°).
- The given shape has opposite sides equal and parallel, and all angles are right angles.
Answer: c) Rectangle

Question 6
Shape: A kite
-
Properties of a kite:
- Two pairs of adjacent sides are equal.
- One pair of opposite angles is equal.
- The given shape has two pairs of adjacent sides that are equal, which is characteristic of a kite.
Answer: a) Kite
