Worked practice questions

Which name fits a flat shape made of straight segments joined in a closed loop?

  1. Cylinder
  2. Polyhedron
  3. Prism
  4. Polygon
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. Polygon

1. A flat (plane) shape built from line segments joined end to end into a closed chain is a polygon. 2. A polyhedron, prism and cylinder are all solid, three-dimensional figures, so they fail. 3. The segments are the edges and their meeting points are the vertices. _Source: Wikipedia, Polygon, lead section_

What are the points where two edges of a polygon meet called?

  1. Faces
  2. Bases
  3. Diagonals
  4. Vertices
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. Vertices

1. Edges (sides) are the segments of a polygon. 2. The points where two edges meet are its vertices, also called corners. 3. Faces belong to solids, and a diagonal joins two non-adjacent corners, so those fail. _Source: Wikipedia, Polygon, lead section_

A polygon with n sides is called an n-gon. Which shape is a 3-gon?

  1. Square
  2. Hexagon
  3. Triangle
  4. Pentagon
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. Triangle

1. An n-gon has n sides, so a 3-gon has three sides. 2. A shape with three sides is a triangle. 3. A square has four sides, a pentagon five and a hexagon six, so they fail. _Source: Wikipedia, Polygon, lead section_
