Math Test Study Guide

Concepts to know:

Know the definition of a quadrilateral.

Know the properties of all the quadrilaterals.

Know how to compare quadrilaterals using sometimes, always, never statements.
Ex:  A kite is a square.    The answer is sometimes because kites have two sets of congruent adjacent sides.  Therefore, they could be equalateral with right angles which is a square....but they don't have to be.

You try some..... A rectangle is a kite
                            A square is a rhombus

Know how to solve the task exercises we did in class.  If you want more practice with, I can give you some more task cards Monday.
