2D Shape Cards

Ivy is designing a mini-golf course using 2D shape cards. Use the cards and clues to identify shapes, compare their properties and plan a course. A vertex is a corner; vertices is the plural.

SQUARE 4 straight sides of equal length 4 vertices

RECTANGLE 4 straight sides; opposite sides are equal 4 vertices

TRIANGLE 3 straight sides 3 vertices

CIRCLE One curved edge No vertices
