About this app

An interactive elementary math app for classifying triangles and quadrilaterals by their properties. Move triangle angles and quadrilateral vertices or adjust shape controls to see how side lengths, angles, and parallel pairs determine names. A final name-finding activity checks whether learners can identify the most specific classification and understand that categories can overlap.

Use cases

  • Elementary students learning shape classification
  • Teachers demonstrating triangle and quadrilateral properties
  • Parents practicing geometry concepts with children
  • Learners reviewing angles, equal sides, and parallel sides

Features

  • Interactive triangle activities for right, obtuse, isosceles, and equilateral triangles
  • Quadrilateral activities for parallelograms, rectangles, rhombi, and squares
  • Live displays of angles, side lengths, equal sides, and parallel pairs
  • Four-question shape naming challenge with immediate feedback
  • Reset and next-step controls plus optional sound toggle
