MA.3.G.3.1: Describe, analyze, compare, and classify two-dimensional shapes using sides and angles - including acute, obtuse, and right angles - and connect these ideas to the definition of shapes.

Content Limits :  Items may include regular and irregular polygons with 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, or 10 sides.  Polygons used in items may be concave or convex.  Polygons used in items may include types of triangles (right, equilateral, isosceles, and scalene), types of quadrilaterals (parallelogram, trapezoid, rectangle, rhombus, square, and/or kite), pentagons, hexagons, octagons, and decagons.  Polygons may be classified by use of parallel or perpendicular sides as well as number of sides and/or types of angles.  Items may assess the specific names of polygons with 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, or 10 sides and the following terms: regular and irregular polygons, lines and line segments (parallel and perpendicular), diagonals, and vertices (vertex).  Items will not include defining or identifying the following vocabulary terms: concave and convex.  Types of angles will not be assessed in isolation at this benchmark.

MA.3.G.3.2: Compose, decompose, and transform polygons to make other polygons, including concave and convex polygons with three, four, five, six, eight, or ten sides.

Remark/Examples : Example: With pattern blocks, a trapezoid and a triangle can be combined to form a parallelogram or a large triangle. Also, the hexagon can be decomposed to form two trapezoids, and so forth. Example: One can cut a triangle off of a parallelogram so that, when translated and attached to the other side, the parallelogram becomes a rectangle.

Content Limits:  Items may include concave or convex polygons with 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, or 10 sides.  Items may include the use of transformations to create new polygons, but the transformation (i.e., rotations, translations, reflections, dilations) will not be assessed.  Geometric terms will be used with common terminology set in parentheses, i.e., reflection (flip).  Items may use the following terms: overlapping, combine, and polygon.  Items will not assess the following vocabulary terms: concave, convex, compose, or decompose.

MA.3.G.3.3: Build, draw, and analyze two- dimensional shapes from several orientations in order to examine and apply congruence and symmetry.

Content Limits:  Items may include concave or convex polygons with 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, or 10 sides.  Items should use the correct geometric term with common terminology set in parentheses, i.e., reflection (flip).  Items may assess the following terms: symmetry, reflection, and/or congruent.  Transformations may be used in graphics; however, the transformations needed to compose or decompose polygons (rotations, translations, dilations) will not be assessed.

What is a polygon? polygon Not a polygon

Regular Polygons A regular polygon is a polygon whose sides are all the same length, and whose angles are all the same.

Are these regular polygons? Why or why not? A: No… These sides are all the different lengths, and the angles are all different.

10/6/2015 Two Ways to Classify Triangles  By Their Sides  By Their Angles

Acute??? Acute Triangles Not Acute Triangles Definition:

Isosceles??? Isosceles Triangles Not Isosceles Triangles Definition:

10/6/ Scalene Triangles  No sides are the same length

Isosceles Triangles At least two sides are the same length

Acute Triangles Acute triangles have three acute angles

Right Triangles Right triangles have one right angle What about the other two angles?

ObtuseTriangles Obtuse triangles have one obtuse angle What about the other two angles?

Let’s Play….. NAME THAT TRIANGLE!!

Answer: Right Scalene Triangle

NAME THAT TRIANGLE!! Answer: Obtuse Isosceles Triangle
