Polygon Hierarchy

The document discusses different types of quadrilaterals and their properties. It explains that squares, rectangles, and rhombuses are all types of parallelograms because they have two sets of parallel sides. Rectangles are also quadrilaterals. Rhombi are parallelograms because they have two sets of parallel sides and congruent angles and sides. Parallelograms are quadrilaterals with two sets of parallel sides. Trapezoids are quadrilaterals with one set of parallel sides. All of these shapes are polygons because they are closed figures formed by line segments. The document then provides real-world examples to illustrate each shape type.

Square goes with the rectangle and rhombus because
they are parallelograms, and 2 sets of parallel sides.
Rectangles go with parallelograms because its a
quadrilateral, has 2 sets of parallel sides, and the
diagonals intersect each other. Rhombi are
parallelograms because it has 2 sets of parallel sides, all
the sides are congruent, opposite angles are congruent,
and consecutive angles are supplementary.
Parallelograms are quadrilaterals because they are 4
sided polygons, and the angles equal up to be 360
degrees. Trapezoids are quadrilaterals because it has 4
sides, and equals 360 degrees. Quadrilaterals are
polygons because they are shapes that are closed by

segments. All these shapes are polygons because they


are a closed figure formed by segments.

POLYGON: New York Times Square is an example of a


polygon because there are polygons all over. From tall
building windows, to rectangle lines on the streets, and

billboard signs.
QUADRILATERALS: These dominos are real world
examples of quadrilaterals because they are 4 sided and
the angles equal up to be 320 degrees.

PARALLELOGAMS: This phone is an example of a real


world parallelogram because it has 2 sets of parallel
sides, and the opposite sides are congruent.

TRAPEZOIDS: This pyramid is an example of a real world


trapezoid because it has 1 pair of parallel sides, and it
has bases and legs.

RECTANGLES: This brick is an example of a real world


rectangle because it has 2 sets of parallel sides, opposite
sides are congruent, and it has 90 degree angles.

RHOMBUS: This Mitsubishi sign is an example of a real


world rhombus because it has 2 sets of parallel sides, all
the sides and angles are congruent.

SQUARE: This dice/cube is an example of a real world


square because it has 2 sets of parallel sides, all sides are
congruent, all angles are congruent, and it is all the same
lengths and measures that equal 360.
