Recognise and identify shapes and Unit 5.1 objects and their attributes Two-dimensional (2-D) shapes Rectangles Rectangles are four-sided shapes with these two properties: • both pairs of opposite sides are equal • the corners are all right angles The longer side is the length and the shorter side is the breadth. Downloaded from hlayiso.com Maths Lit NQF Level 3
How do we know if a shape is a rectangle? Unit 5.1 A shape is a rectangle: • if a 4-sided shape has all its angles equal to 90° • if the opposite sides are equal, and at least one of the angles is 90° The sides of a shape are marked with lines to show they are equal. The diagonals of a rectangle each divide it into two identical triangles. A B A B E D C D C Downloaded from hlayiso.com Maths Lit NQF Level 3
Squares Unit 5.1 A square is a 2-D shape with • four straight sides, all equal in length • four right angles U X V W Downloaded from hlayiso.com Maths Lit NQF Level 3
Triangles Unit 5.1 A triangle is a 2-D shape • Any closed shape with three straight sides is a triangle. • A right-angled triangle has one of the angles equal to 90°. • The side opposite the right angle is always the longest side and it is called the hypotenuse.

Circles and semi-circles Unit 5.1 • All the points on the outside of the circle are exactly the same distance from the centre. radius centre • Semi-circles are half circles. • The straight edge is formed by the diameter of the circle. r Downloaded from hlayiso.com Maths Lit NQF Level 3
Three-dimensional (3-D) objects Unit 5.1 Remember the parts of a 3-D object: vertex face • Rectangular prisms are box shapes. All the faces are rectangles and opposite faces are exactly the same. • Cubes are a kind of rectangular prism. All six faces of a cube are identical squares.

Three-dimensional (3-D) objects Unit 5.1 Cylinders • They have top and base circles that are the same. • The side face is formed by one rectangle, which curves all the way around. Downloaded from hlayiso.com Maths Lit NQF Level 3
Three-dimensional (3-D) objects Unit 5.1 Spheres • They are perfectly round 3-D objects. • Every point on the surface is the same distance from the centre. • Examples: Soccer balls, tennis balls, globes, ball bearings • The sphere is the 3-D object with the smallest surface enclosing a given volume.
