Higher Check In - 8.01 Conventions, notation and terms ABCD is a polygon which has no parallel sides and one pair of equal angles. What is the name of this polygon? Write down the name of any polyhedrons which have the same number of faces and vertices. How many more edges does a pentagonal prism have than a cone? Three points A (3, 5), B (8, 5) and C (6, -1) form three of the vertices of a parallelogram. Find the coordinates of the fourth point D. Place the following quadrilaterals in the correct position in the Venn diagram below. rectangle kite rhombus parallelogram trapezium ABC is a triangle with lengths AB 9 cm and AC 9 cm. One of the angles is 100°. How many different triangles can be drawn with this information? Explain your answer. A cone is sliced into two equal pieces along the vertical plane through the vertex. Each piece will have two flat faces. What are the shapes of these faces? Triangle ABC with A (2, 5), B (1, 8) and C (4, 9) is reflected in the line to form a quadrilateral. Find the coordinates of the fourth vertex, and name the quadrilateral. Sally is designing a patchwork quilt using only regular polygons. She has decided on a floral pattern using one polygon for the centre of the flower and a different polygon for the petals surrounding the flower. If she uses regular pentagons for the petals, how many petals will be needed for each flower? A rectangular table top has a perimeter of 10 m and an area of 5.8 m2. Work out whether a tablecloth measuring 2.4 m by 2.6 m would cover this table top. Extension A tesseract is an "impossible" 4 dimensional cube. By considering the number of vertices of a point in zero dimensions, a line in one dimension, a square in two dimensions and a cube in three dimensions, can you describe the number of vertices in a tesseract?
