Composing Shapes
Mathematics · Geometry · procedural
Compose two-dimensional shapes (rectangles, squares, trapezoids, triangles, half-circles, quarter-circles) to create composite shapes, and compose new shapes from the composite shape
What mastery looks like
- Combine two triangles to form a rectangle or larger triangle
- Put together half-circles and quarter-circles to form circles or new shapes
- Decompose a composite shape and describe which simpler shapes make it up
Check your understanding
Can Composing Shapes use flat shapes like triangles and rectangles to fit together and make a new larger shape — like a puzzle?
