Which is the most descriptive name for the shape below?
shape
A. square
B. rhombus

D. rectangle
The most descriptive name for the shape below would be a rhombus because it has four equal sides, opposite equal angles, but its angles are not 90 degrees making it different from a square or a rectangle. Therefore, the answer is B. rhombus.
Which figures appear to be congruent?
An image of 5 triangles on a 14 by 12 grid is shown.Triangle 1 has a base that is 4 units long. The upper vertex is 4 units above the midpoint of the base. To the right, triangle 2 has a horizontal leg that is 3.5 units long and a vertical leg that is 4 units long. A small square is positioned in the triangle at the lower left vertex. Below triangle 1, triangle 3 has a horizontal leg that is 3.5 units long and a vertical leg that is 4 units long. A small square is positioned inside this triangle at the upper right vertex. Triangle 4 is toward the center of the grid. It has a horizontal leg that is 1 unit long and a vertical leg that is 4 units long. A small square is positioned inside this triangle at the upper right vertex. Triangle 5 is to the lower right. It has a horizontal leg that is 6 units long and a vertical leg that is 4 units long. A small square is positioned inside this triangle at the lower left vertex.

Which statement is true about the following pair of rectangles?
Two rectangles are shown. To the left, a larger rectangle has a lower side labeled 60 centimeters and a left side labeled 30 centimeters. To the right, a smaller rectangle has an upper side labeled 6 centimeters and a right side labeled 3 centimeters.
A. They are not similar because Start Fraction 6 over 60 End Fraction≠ Start Fraction 30 over 3 End Fraction.
B. They are not similar because Start Fraction 30 over 3 End Fraction = Start Fraction 60 over 6 End Fraction.
C. They are not similar because Start Fraction 3 over 6 End Fraction ≠ Start Fraction 30 over 60 End Fraction.
D. They are similar because Start Fraction 3 over 6 End Fraction = Start Fraction 30 over 60 End Fraction.
