Geometric Classifications

🔹 What Is It?

Geometric classification means grouping shapes based on their properties — like sides, angles, and symmetry.

🧩 Clue to Remember

Ask yourself:

• How many sides or angles?
  
  

• Are the sides equal?
  
  

• Are there any right angles?
  
  

🔹 Example

A square has 4 equal sides and 4 right angles.
A rectangle has 2 pairs of equal sides and 4 right angles.
Both are quadrilaterals — shapes with 4 sides.

💡 Why It Matters

Knowing how to classify shapes helps us understand the rules of geometry and see how different shapes are related.
