This math skill involves identifying and naming complex two-dimensional shapes based on their characteristics, such as the presence of right angles, parallel sides, and equal-length sides. Shapes include right triangles, non-right triangles, trapezoids, kites, parallelograms, and rhombuses.

Identify and name complex 2D shapes
Test your understanding of identify and name 2D shapes by practicing it! Work through the below exercises to use it in practice.
🎙️
Let's name these two dimensional shapes.
🎙️
A triangle with one perfect corner is called a right triangle
🎙️
And if it has no perfect corners, it's called a non-right triangle
🎙️
A shape with one pair of parallel sides that are different lengths is called a trapezoid
🎙️
And a shape with two pairs of sides that are the same length, connected to each other, is called a kite
🎙️
If it has two pairs of parallel sides, it's called a parallelogram
🎙️
And if the pairs of parallel sides are the same length, it's called a rhombus
