1 The Important Thing About Shapes Written by: K. Gooding

2 The important thing about a geometric shape is that it can be 2-dimensional or 3 dimensional. A 2-dimensional shape has length and width. A triangle is a polygon with 3 sides and 3 angles. A quadrilateral is a polygon with 4 sides and 4 angles. But the important thing about a geometric shape is that it can be 2-dimensional or 3 dimensional. length width square rhombus length width triangle 3 angles

3 The important thing about a geometric shape is that it can be 2-dimensional or 3 dimensional. Quadrilaterals are all around us. A rectangle is a quadrilateral with 4 sides and 4 right angles for corners. A square is a quadrilateral with 4 equal sides and 4 right angles. Windows, chalkboards, and floor tiles are quadrilaterals. But the important thing about a geometric shape is that it can be 2-dimensional or 3 dimensional. rectangle Right angle square Right angle 4 equal sides

4 The important thing about a geometric shape is that it can be 2-dimensional or 3 dimensional. Quadrilaterals come in many different shapes and sizes. A rhombus is a quadrilateral with 4 sides and 4 angles for corners. A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with 4 angles and 4 sides but only 2 sides are parallel. But the important thing about a geometric shape is that it can be 2-dimensional or 3 dimensional. 4 angles 4 sides rhombus 2 parallel sides, the lines are the same distance apart 4 angles

5 The important thing about a geometric shape is that it can be 2-dimensional or 3 dimensional. But the important thing about a geometric shape is that it can be 2-dimensional or 3 dimensional. A 3-dimensional shape has length, width, and height. A rectangular prism is a 3- dimensional shape with 6 faces that are each a rectangle. A block, a brick, and a box are rectangular prisms.
