Classifying 2D Shapes
Part A: Fix the Sentence
Each sentence has an error. Rewrite it correctly on the line.
1. Fix the sentence:
A hexagon has five sides and five angles.
Rewrite: A hexagon has six sides and six angles.
2. Fix the sentence:
A regular polygon has sides of different lengths.
Rewrite: A regular polygon has all sides equal in length and all angles equal in measure.
3. Fix the sentence:
An octagon has ten sides and ten angles.
Rewrite: An octagon has eight sides and eight angles.
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. A polygon with seven sides is called a heptagon.
2. The sum of interior angles in a triangle is 180° and in a quadrilateral is 360 degrees.
3. A closed plane figure made of straight line segments is called a polygon.
4. A regular hexagon has 6 equal interior angles.
Part C: Short Answer
Answer each question in one or two complete sentences.
1. What is the difference between a regular polygon and an irregular polygon? Give one example of each.
A regular polygon has all sides and all angles equal, like a regular pentagon. An irregular polygon has sides or angles that are not all equal, like a rectangle.
2. How can you find the sum of interior angles of any polygon if you know the number of sides?
You subtract 2 from the number of sides and multiply by 180°. For example, a pentagon has (5 − 2) × 180° = 540°.
