Easy Level Worksheet Questions

Part A: Subjective Questions

Note: Answer each question with steps and explanation. Write down the answers on sheet and submit to the school subject teacher.

(1) Define a polygon.

Excellent! A polygon is a closed figure formed by connecting line segments at their endpoints, creating a bounded shape.

(2) Write the number of sides in a hexagon.

Perfect! The prefix "hexa" means six, so a hexagon has 6 sides and 6 vertices.

(3) How many diagonals does a pentagon have?

Correct! A pentagon has 5 diagonals, calculated using the formula n(n-3)/2 where n=5.

(4) Write Euler's formula for polyhedra.

Outstanding! Euler's formula F + V = E + 2 relates faces, vertices, and edges in any polyhedron.

(5) Name a solid that has only one curved surface.

Brilliant! A sphere is the only 3D solid with just one continuous curved surface and no edges or vertices.

Drag each polygon to its correct number of sides:

Triangle
Square/Rectangle
Pentagon
Hexagon
Octagon
3 sides, 3 angles
4 sides, 4 angles
5 sides, 5 diagonals
3 Sides
4 Sides
5 Sides
6 Sides
8 Sides

(1) Find the sum of the interior angles of a hexagon.

(a) Formula: Sum = , where n = number of sides

(b) For hexagon: n = 6, so Sum = (6 - 2) × 180° = °

Excellent! The sum of interior angles is 720°, which demonstrates that hexagons have larger angle sums than simpler polygons.

(2) Draw a net of a cube. (Draw this on your answer sheet)

(a) A cube has faces

(b) Net shows all faces

Perfect! A net displays all 6 faces unfolded in a flat pattern that can be folded back into the original cube.

(3) Find the measure of each interior angle of a regular octagon.

(a) Sum of interior angles = (8 - 2) × 180° = °

(b) Each angle = 1080° ÷ 8 = °

Outstanding! Each interior angle in a regular octagon measures 135°, showing the symmetry of regular polygons.

(4) A polyhedron has 6 faces, 8 vertices. Find the number of edges using Euler's formula.

(a) Euler's formula:

(b) 6 + 8 = E + 2, so E =

Brilliant! Using Euler's formula, this polyhedron has 12 edges, demonstrating the fundamental relationship between faces, vertices, and edges.

Test your understanding with these multiple choice questions:

6. A solid with 2 circular faces and 1 curved surface is:

(a) Sphere (b) Cone (c) Cylinder (d) Cube

Sphere
Cone
Cylinder
Cube

Correct! A cylinder has 2 circular bases and 1 curved lateral surface.

7. The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is always:

(a) 90° (b) 180° (c) 270° (d) 360°

90°
180°
270°
360°

Correct! The sum of exterior angles of any polygon is always 360°.

8. A solid having only one face is:

(a) Sphere (b) Cone (c) Cylinder (d) Cube

Sphere
Cone
Cylinder
Cube

Correct! A sphere has only one curved surface (face) with no edges or vertices.

9. The number of edges in a rectangular prism is:

(a) 8 (b) 12 (c) 6 (d) 10

8
12
6
10

Correct! A rectangular prism has 12 edges (4 on top, 4 on bottom, 4 vertical).

10. Each interior angle of a regular hexagon is:

(a) 100° (b) 110° (c) 120° (d) 130°

100°
110°
120°
130°

Correct! Sum of angles = (6-2) × 180° = 720°. Each angle = 720° ÷ 6 = 120°.
