Types of Quadrilaterals | 5th Grade Math (Mastery Check)

welcome to fifth grade math with mr. J so here we are at the quadrilaterals mastery check where you are going to classify some quadrilaterals here on your own to see if you have the concept down now if you're looking for a little more help or instruction I drop the link to my instructional video down in the description so go check that out and then come back to the mastery check now if you I I would highly suggest you have your quadrilateral hierarchy or chart whatever you want to call it from the instructional video handy here as we work through these so you can give the best classification possible now if you think you can do it without that chart great so you need something to write with and write on I'm gonna say pause here in a few seconds you're going to pause classify give the best classification for each of these quadrilaterals when you're ready press play check your work with mine now I am going to show you a few things on number one here so we know exactly what to do and what some of these lines on the quadrilaterals mean so number one we want the best classification best name for this quadrilateral now we do know it is a quadrilateral has four sides and four angles but we can get more specific for example this quadrilateral has two pairs of parallel sides the left and the right one pair top in the bottom two pair so it is a parallelogram but I think we can get more specific because this quadrilateral quadrilateral has four right angles so which quadrilateral has four right angles plus as a parallelogram and a quadrilateral hopefully you're thinking rectangle rectangle would be the best answer for this classification so you just need to give one for each of these and it's the best or the most cific quadrilateral classification now these lines on the sides so see how we have two here and two here that means those two are congruent they're the same those markings mean those two sides are congruent which means people or the same and then the top and the bottom only have one line each so that means those are the same so on number two there aren't any dashes aren't any matches right so none of the sides are the same so have whatever you're going to write with and whatever you're going to write on ready here go ahead and press pause alright welcome back hopefully we have so we did number one together so we had five more quadrilaterals to classify let's start with number two now number two is the most general least specific quadrilateral there is and the best name for it it is just a quadrilateral it doesn't have any parallel sides doesn't have any right angles doesn't have any congruent sides so just a quadrilateral number three it looks like the left and the right are parallel the top and the bottom are parallel so this has two pairs of parallel sides the best classification for number three is parallelogram let's take a look at number four here number four is a quadrilateral it's a parallelogram which means two pairs of parallel sides it also has four congruent sides four sides that are the same each side has a dash that means they are all the same and it has four right angles so this is the most specific quadrilateral of them all the square number five let's see here so we have four sides four angles so it is a quadrilateral it has two pairs of parallel sides the left and the right are pair top in the bottom or parallel let's see any right angles nope so it's not a rectangle or a square but it does have four congruent sides right each of the sides has two dashes which means they all match they're all congruent so this one is a rhombus so it is a quadrilateral it is a parallelogram but it also has four congruent sides which makes it the best classification makes it Aramis and then lastly number six we have two congruent sides left in the right let's check parallel the left and the right are not parallel though just the top and the bottom are so exactly one pair of parallel sides trapezoid okay so there you have it the quadrilaterals mastery check hopefully you did well there as you went through and classified with the best name possible for those quadrilaterals if you need more help or more instruction head back to my instructional video and make sure you have everything correct on your hierarchy or chart so thanks a lot for watching and until next time peace you
