Hi parents


My DS said there was a question asking students to draw a parallelogram, trapezium and rhombus with a given triangle.

For the parallelogram and trapezium, how many more triangles must be drawn respectively.

Please help

I'm not so sure

Parallelogram: 8 (inclusive of the one provided)
Rhombus: 4
Trapezium: 3 (including)

Potentially... like last year. ds said those questions were easier than those PSLE series assessment books.

He must have \"steam\" coming out of his head during the paper... for some strange reasons, he said he cannot remember his answers after the paper. Only challenge according to him was the 3 shapes to draw. He was stuck for trapezium (1 mark).

BTw, there was a question on some %. He said his answer was 40% while most of his classmates said it's 45%.

Is it to draw a rombus, parallelogram and trapezium ?

DS2 recalled he has a 40% in one of his answers for P1 ... Is the question in P1 or P2 ?

Yes, it is to draw those 3.

All paper 1.
