The question, in short

Using nine labelled shapes on a square grid, identify a quadrilateral's name, a shape matching G, H's rotational symmetry order and E's line count.

Summarised in our own words. Use the official paper for the exact wording and the diagram.

Part (a) · 1 mark

Give the mathematical name of the quadrilateral labelled D.

  1. 1Identify the quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides.
  2. 2Name it as a trapezium.

AnswerTrapezium

Part (b) · 1 mark

State which lettered shape is congruent to shape G.

  1. 1Compare each shape to shape G.
  2. 2Find that shape F has the same size and shape as G.
  3. 3Conclude that F is congruent to G.

AnswerF

Part (c) · 1 mark

State the order of rotational symmetry for shape H.

  1. 1Observe the number of times shape H maps onto itself in a full turn.
  2. 2Count the positions where it looks identical.
  3. 3Determine the order is 4.

Answer4

Part (d) · 1 mark

State how many lines of symmetry shape E has.

  1. 1Draw or imagine lines through shape E.
  2. 2Test for symmetry by folding or reflecting.
  3. 3Count how many lines produce matching halves.
  4. 4Find there are 2 lines of symmetry.
