1x5

2x4

3x3 a square, but a square IS a special type of rectangle,

Also 4x2 and 5x1 which are the first two rotated through 90 degrees. Whether these should be considered the same or different depends on the context of the question.

How many different rectangles can you make with 5 tiles?

Using all five tiles, only one rectangle can be made. (1 tile wide by 5 tiles long) Using less than all five tiles, you could make six different rectangles. (squares are technically rectangles too.) The rectangles possible would be: 1 tile wide by 5 tiles long, 1 wide by four long, 1 wide by 3 long, 1 wide by 2 long, 1 wide by 1 long, and 2 wide by 2 long.


How do you make 2 squares using 10 toothpicks?

Start with a 2x2 square (that uses 8 toothpicks) Use the other two to make a 1x1 square in one of the corners of the big one..

What is a figure made up of more than one geometric shape is called an?

There is no specific name. The resulting shape depends on the relative sizes and shapes of the original gemetric shapes and how they are used to "make up" a shape. For example, two rectangles can make up one rectangles, a hexagon, a heptagon, an octagon, a nonagon, a dodecagon, a triskaidecagon (13) or a hexadecagon (16). There may be others. Using more shapes or more complicated ones will greatly increase the number of possible outcomes. Furthermore, there is no reason to be restricted to polygons.


Can 9 toothpicks s be used to form 4 congruent triangles?

Yes. Make one triangle using hree matches. Underneath the two vertices at the base of this triangle, make another two triangles, using six more matches. You will find that there is an inverted triangle in the middle - the fourth.

How many different rectangles with an area of 12 square units can be formed using unit squares?

3 or 6, depending on whether rectangles rotated through 90 degrees are counted as different. The rectangles are 1x12, 2x6 3x4 and their rotated versions: 4x3, 6x2 and 12x1.
