Polygon Properties Practice

Help the Park Design Team check its plans. Remember: a polygon is a flat, closed shape made from straight sides. Each place where two sides meet is a vertex (plural: vertices).

Identify the polygons

Read each clue and choose the correct answer.

1.A paving tile has 5 straight sides. What is the name of this polygon?
  • Pentagon
  • Hexagon
  • Octagon
  • Triangle
2.A sign design has 8 corners. Which polygon could it be?
  • Square
  • Pentagon
  • Hexagon
  • Octagon
3.Complete both facts: A hexagon has sides and vertices.
4.The design team says a circle is a polygon because it is a closed shape. Is the team correct? Explain briefly.

Check the shape plan

Use the shape guide, then solve the questions.

Triangle

Square

Pentagon

Hexagon

5.The path around a hexagonal flower bed has one corner at the end of every side. How many vertices does it have?
6.True or false: Every polygon has the same number of sides as vertices.
TrueFalse
7.A five-sided fountain outline is being checked. Imogen says it has 5 sides but only 4 vertices. Is Imogen right? Give a reason.

Design a park feature

Use what you know about sides and vertices to plan a new feature.

8.Draw a closed polygon with exactly 7 sides. Label it with its number of sides and number of vertices.
9.A park gate is shaped like an octagon. How many sides and vertices does its outline have altogether?
10.Explain how you can tell whether a shape is a polygon. Include what its sides and outline must be like.
