Elaborations
- • Elaboration establishing the properties of squares, rectangles, parallelograms, rhombuses, trapeziums and kites using geometric properties and proof, such as the sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is equal to a complete turn or 360°
- • Elaboration identifying properties of quadrilaterals related to side lengths, parallel sides, angles, diagonals and symmetry
- • Elaboration applying the properties of triangles and quadrilaterals to construction designs such as car jacks, scissor lifts, folding umbrellas, toolboxes and cherry pickers
