Which statement about squares and equilateral triangles are true?
Both are regular polygons
What does a triangle pentagon and square have in common?
they are all polygons
Are all shapes polygons?
Not all shapes are polygons. Polygons are shapes that have to have straight sides and be closed figures. So a shape that is curved would not be a polygon.
What are polygons with all equal sides and angles called?
They are known as regular polygons.
Do two polygons which are similar have the same shape?
Similar polygons are polygons for which all corresponding angles are congruent and all corresponding sides are proportional. From this definition we can say they have the same shape.
What generalization can you make between a hexagon a pentagon and a square?
They are all polygons !
What statement is a good generalization about all multiples of 6?
All multiples of 6 have 3 as a factor
What is a generalization for a pentagonsquare and a hexagon?
They are all 5, 4 and 6 sided polygons respectively
If a statement is true is it converse also true?
Not necessarily. If the statement is "All rectangles are polygons", the converse is "All polygons are rectangles." This converse is not true.
Which statement is a correct generalization about all multiples of ten?
None of them.
All polygons can be constructed entirely from the repetition of a single length of line segment?
This is false. The statement would be true for regular polygons, but not all polygons are regular.
Make and test a generalization for each set of polygons?
Oh, dude, making generalizations about polygons is like trying to figure out why people still use fax machines. You just look at the sides and angles of different polygons, see what they have in common, and boom, you've got yourself a generalization. Testing it is like checking if your favorite food is still delicious - just try it out with different polygons and see if it holds up. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!
What is the generalization for a right triangle rectangle and a pentagon?
They are all polygons whose sides are consecutive in numbers as such as 3, 4 and 5 respectively
What is an example of a false statement that has a true converse?
All four-sided polygons are squares. (False) Squares are all four-sided polygons. (True)
In reactions betewwen gases all collisions lead to reactions?
The statement is false as a generalization.
What is generalization?
*A generalization is a statement about several things or people *clue words to identify generalization * Valid generalization: fact support or prove and (true) generalization *clue words in a sentence to make a generalization: never,all,sometimes,most,always,none,everybody,everone,society,some,almost,only,empty *Faulty generalization: (not true) generalization (can not) be proven or supported with a fact.
What is a generalization?
Making a general statement/assumption about a specific group. ex. Teenagers are irresponsible. You are making a generalization because you are making ageneral assumption that all teenagers are irresponsible, when it could not be true.
