About This Quiz

This quiz, titled 'Stage 3 Year 5 Space and Geometry', assesses understanding of geometric shapes and their properties. It covers the number of sides and angles in various shapes, and identifies characteristics of specific polygons, enhancing geometric reasoning skills.

2.

How many sides does an icosahedron have? Only write the number.

Explanation
An icosahedron is a three-dimensional geometric shape that consists of 20 equilateral triangular faces. Therefore, the correct answer is 20.

Rate this question:
3.

How many sides does a dodecagon have?

Explanation
A dodecagon is a polygon with twelve sides. The prefix "dodeca-" in Greek means twelve, so a dodecagon has twelve sides. Each side of a dodecagon is equal in length, and the interior angles add up to 1800 degrees.

Rate this question:
4.

6.

Fill in the blank space. A polygon is a 2D (flat) shape with _______ or more straight sides. (Use a number.)

Explanation
A polygon is a 2D shape with 3 or more straight sides. A polygon is defined as a closed figure with straight sides, and the minimum requirement for a shape to be considered a polygon is to have at least 3 sides. Therefore, the correct answer is 3.

Rate this question:
7.

• opposite sides are parallel • all sides are of equal length • all 4 interior angles are right angles • if you draw in the diagonals, right angles are formed where they intersect I am a _____________________________

Explanation
A square is a shape that has opposite sides that are parallel, meaning they never intersect. Additionally, all sides of a square are of equal length, which makes it a regular quadrilateral. Another defining characteristic of a square is that all four interior angles are right angles, meaning they measure 90 degrees. Lastly, if you draw in the diagonals of a square, they intersect at right angles, further confirming its shape. Therefore, based on the given characteristics, the shape described is a square.

8.

• all 4 sides are equal in length • opposite sides are parallel • 4 interior angles • opposite angles are equal • if you draw in the diagonals, right angles are formed where they intersect

Explanation
A rhombus is a quadrilateral with several defining characteristics. Firstly, all four sides of a rhombus are equal in length. Additionally, opposite sides of a rhombus are parallel to each other. A rhombus also has four interior angles. Furthermore, the opposite angles in a rhombus are equal. Lastly, if you draw in the diagonals of a rhombus, right angles are formed where they intersect. Therefore, based on these characteristics, the given shape can be identified as a rhombus.

9.

This is a dodecahedron. It has ______ vertices.

Explanation
A dodecahedron is a three-dimensional geometric shape that consists of 12 regular pentagonal faces. Each vertex of the dodecahedron is where three of these faces meet. Since each face has 5 vertices, there are a total of 20 vertices in a dodecahedron.

The cross section of this shape is a
- Rectangle
- Square
- An irregular shape
- Triangle
Correct Answer

A. Triangle

Explanation

The given question asks for the cross section of a shape. A cross section is the shape formed when a solid object is cut by a plane. Since a triangle is a three-sided polygon, it is a possible shape for a cross section. Therefore, the correct answer is triangle.

How many more blocks would you need to add to make these blocks into a cube. The smallest number that would create a cube without moving any of the original blocks.
- 27
- 36
- 19
- 15
Correct Answer

A. 19

Explanation

To make these blocks into a cube without moving any of the original blocks, we need to find the difference between the number of blocks we have and the number of blocks needed to form a cube. In this case, we have 27 blocks, and a cube requires 3x3x3=27 blocks. Therefore, we need to add 19 more blocks to make these blocks into a cube.

This 3D shape is a
- Semi-circle
- Half sphere
- Hemisphere
- Semisphere
Correct Answer

A. Hemisphere

Explanation

A hemisphere is a 3D shape that is formed by half of a sphere. It has a curved surface and a flat circular base. In this case, the shape described in the question is a hemisphere because it is stated that it is a "semi-circle" and "half sphere," both of which are terms commonly used to refer to a hemisphere. The other options, such as semicircle and semisphere, do not accurately describe a 3D shape and are not commonly used terms.

Rate this question:
29.

These lines would be best described as
- Perpendicular lines
- Convex lines

A shape can be a square, a parallelogram and a rhombus all at the same time.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. True

Which shape am I? Circle the correct answer. I have 4 sides but I am not a square. My opposite angles are equal and not all sides are the same length. I have 2 pairs of parallel lines.
- I am a rectangle.
- I am a parallelogram.
- I am a rhombus.
Correct Answer

A. I am a parallelogram.

Explanation

The shape described in the question has 4 sides, opposite angles that are equal, and not all sides are the same length. These characteristics match the definition of a parallelogram, which is a quadrilateral with opposite sides that are parallel and equal in length. Therefore, the correct answer is "I am a parallelogram."
