Geometry Review
(Over 2-dimentional Shapes)
Directions:
This is the in-class assignment for Friday, March 20. You will get points based on
how many problems you get done IN CLASS, so use time wisely and stay on
task.
Take out a piece of notebook paper, and work out each problem, one by one.
Be sure to show work for answers.
If you finish early, you are to catch up on Khan Academy so that you get an A+
on that grade.
1.) Is a Rectangle also a Rhombus? Explain your answer.
2.) Is a Quadrilateral also a Trapezoid? Explain your answer.
3.) Is a Rhombus also a Parallelogram? Explain your answer.
4.) Is a Trapezoid also a Parallelogram? Explain your answer.
5.) Caden has 4 sticks. Their lengths are 4 inches, 4 inches, 6 inches, and 6
inches.
Think about how many different shapes can Caden make with these 4 sticks.
Draw the shapes and label the sides, then write the name of the shape
under it. (Hint: there are actually four different shapes you could make! Can
you create them all?)
6.) Why is a square such a special quadrilateral? Give a full explanation.
7.) What is the formula for the area of a parallelogram?
8.) What is the formula for the area of a triangle?
9.) What is the formula for the area of a trapezoid?
For questions 7 through 21, write the type of shape shown, and then calculate
the ARE for each. Show all work. Be careful! Only use the numbers you need
for the area! Don’t forget to label your answer.

You are the manager of a construction company, and have just
developed floor plans for the first floor of someone’s dream home.
Patio:
______ Sq. ft.
First Floor:
______ Sq. ft.
Garage:
______ Sq. ft.
Part A: You have to calculate the square footage (area) for the entire
blueprint so far. What is the total area for the irregular shape above? (Hint:
how could you break it down to make it easier to calculate?)
Part B: Notice how you are still missing the square footage for each
section of the house. Calculate the area of the:
Patio: ______________
First Floor Living Area: ________________
