  1. For #2, my answer was a stroke through the equal sign, to make a ‘does not equal’ sign. I’m calling it good.

  2. For #2: Strike out the = to make “does not equal”.

    For #3: Write “anything here”. Just writing “anything” is an incomplete answer and is only worth half-points.

    For #4: Use the bottom line of the questionaire as one side and finish off the rectangle using three of your lines.

    As for question #1, “swquence” is not a word. Completing it is impossible. “F S S” is therefore incorrect.

  3. Oh, now I get it. It says that draw a rectangle WITH 3 LINES. It can be draw a rectangle with 3 lines INSIDE it or draw a rectangle USING 3 LINES.

  5. now firstly this is not a profetional test so why is everyone so picky? your all saying that anyone who dident know that a square is a rectange is a moron. im a 12 year old in grade 6 and i dident know that. i would also like it if a wasent called dumb. in math books at my level it is incorrect to put a square is a rectangle so if a square is a rectangle why are children be taught that a square is not a rectange is a little bit stupd. and yet you are saying that we are stupid for not knowing it oh please use common sence people.

  7. I guess you could say that #4 is thinking “inside” the box!

    A rectangle can be defined as a 4-sided polygon with 4 right angles. Since a square satisfies this condition, we say that a square is a special case of a rectangle.

    Further, it may “appear” to be a square. That doesn’t mean it is.
