Let's solve the task step by step.
Task:
"Name Shapes - Number of Corners and Sides"
Write the number of
corners and
sides for each shape. Then color them (though coloring is not possible here, we can still complete the labeling).
We have four shapes:
---
1. Triangle
-
Shape: A triangle has three straight sides.
-
Corners (vertices): 3
-
Sides: 3
✔ So, fill in:
-
Corners: 3
-
Sides: 3
---
2. Square
-
Shape: A square has four equal sides and four right angles.
-
Corners: 4
-
Sides: 4
✔ So, fill in:
-
Corners: 4
-
Sides: 4
---
3. Circle
-
Shape: A circle is a round shape with no straight edges.
-
Corners: 0 (a circle has no corners or vertices)
-
Sides: 0 (it doesn’t have straight sides; it’s curved)
⚠️ Note: Some might say a circle has "1 side" (the curved boundary), but in basic geometry for young learners,
sides usually refer to straight edges. So:
-
Corners: 0
-
Sides: 0
✔ Fill in:
-
Corners: 0
-
Sides: 0
---
4. Rectangle
-
Shape: A rectangle has four sides with opposite sides equal and all angles at 90 degrees.
-
Corners: 4
-
Sides: 4
✔ So, fill in:
-
Corners: 4
-
Sides: 4
---
Final Answer Table:
| Shape | Corners | Sides |
|-----------|---------|-------|
| Triangle | 3 | 3 |
| Square | 4 | 4 |
| Circle | 0 | 0 |
| Rectangle | 4 | 4 |

✔ This completes the task. You would now color each shape as instructed (e.g., triangle red, square blue, etc.), but since that's visual, we've completed the written part.
