Identify all of the different shapes that make up the following figure of a two-dimensional wagon.
Identify all of the different shapes that make up the following figure of a two-dimensional wagon.
In the world around us, all figures can be looked at in geometric shapes.
Looking at the following two-dimensional wagon,
the figure can be broken down into three different shapes. The body of the wagon is a rectangle, the wheels are seen geometrically as circles and the handle is a quadrilateral.
Recall that to be a square, the quadrilateral has to have four equal side lengths.
A parallelogram must have opposite parallel sides, this particular figure doesn't give enough information to determine whether the handle is a parallelogram.
A quadrilateral is a more correct statement as it describes a figure with four sides.
Therefore, the correct answer is, "Rectangle, Circle, Quadrilateral".

Identify all of the different shapes that make up the following figure of a two-dimensional non traditional stop sign.
Identify all of the different shapes that make up the following figure of a two-dimensional non traditional stop sign.
In the world around us, all figures can be looked at in geometric shapes.
Looking at the two-dimensional non traditional stop sign,
the figure can be broken down into two geometric shapes. It is important to point out that this stop sign is a non traditional one. Normal stop signs are octagons which have eight sides. This particular stop side only has six sides and is therefore a hexagon. Therefore, this non traditional stop sign can be broken down into a hexagon and a rectangle.

Objects in the real world can be described in geometric shapes. What geometric shape describes a water silo?
Objects in the real world can be described in geometric shapes. What geometric shape describes a water silo?
In the three-dimensional world a water silo has a bottom and top in the shape of a circle. The three-dimensional connection between the top and the bottom creates a cylinder. Therefore, the geometric shape that best describes the silo is a cylinder.

Sally orders a pair of shoes from an online store. The box that the shoes arrived in can be described as what geometric shape?
Sally orders a pair of shoes from an online store. The box that the shoes arrived in can be described as what geometric shape?
A box in three-dimensional space can be describes as either a cube or a rectangular prism depending on the side lengths. Since rectangular prism is the only option available, this is the best option. Most shoe boxes in general are rectangular prisms since shoes are longer than they are wide.

Identify all of the different shapes that make up the following figure of a two-dimensional snowman.
In the world around us, all figures can be looked at in geometric shapes.
Looking at the two-dimensional snowman,
the figure can be broken down into one main geometric shape, a circle. The base, torso, and head of the snowman are all circles and the arms are lines. Therefore, the geometric shapes of the two-dimensional snowman are circles and lines.

Objects in the real world can be described in geometric shapes. What geometric shape describes a coffee mug without a handle?
In the three-dimensional world a coffee mug without a handle has a bottom and top in the shape of a circle. The three-dimensional connection between the top and the bottom creates a cylinder. Therefore, the geometric shape that best describes the coffee mug is an open cylinder since there is no top on the coffee mug.
