Classifying quadrilaterals worksheet for Grade 5 students, featuring shapes like squares, rectangles, rhombuses, parallelograms, trapezoids, and irregular quadrilaterals.

Let’s go through each shape one by one and classify it based on its sides and angles.

We’re looking at 9 shapes. For each, we’ll decide which category it fits into:
- Square: all 4 sides equal, all angles 90°
- Rectangle: opposite sides equal, all angles 90°
- Rhombus: all 4 sides equal, angles not necessarily 90°
- Parallelogram: opposite sides parallel and equal, angles not necessarily 90°
- Trapezoid: only one pair of opposite sides parallel
- Scalene: no sides equal, no parallel sides (for quadrilaterals, this means irregular with no symmetry)

Note: Some shapes can fit more than one category — we pick the most specific one. For example, a square is also a rectangle and a rhombus, but we call it a “square” because that’s the most precise.

---

Shape 1: Looks like a slanted parallelogram. Opposite sides are equal and parallel. Angles are not 90°. So → Parallelogram

Shape 2: All sides look equal, and all angles look 90°. So → Square

Shape 3: Opposite sides equal, all angles 90°, but adjacent sides are different lengths. So → Rectangle

Shape 4: No sides appear parallel or equal. It’s irregular. So → Scalene

Shape 5: Slanted, opposite sides equal and parallel, angles not 90°. Same as Shape 1 → Parallelogram

Shape 6: Only the top and bottom sides are parallel. The other two sides are not parallel. So → Trapezoid

Shape 7: Slanted, opposite sides equal and parallel, angles not 90° → Parallelogram

Shape 8: Opposite sides equal, all angles 90°, but width ≠ height → Rectangle

Shape 9: Slanted, opposite sides equal and parallel, angles not 90° → Parallelogram

Wait — let’s double-check Shape 2. Is it really a square? Yes, if all sides are equal and all angles are 90°, it’s a square.

Shape 4: Definitely no parallel sides — so scalene is correct.

Shape 6: Only one pair of parallel sides — trapezoid.

All others are clear.

Final classifications:

1. Parallelogram
2. Square
