Administer this parallel and perpendicular lines test to assess your students’ ability to identify types of line pairs in a variety of settings.
A Comprehensive Parallel and Perpendicular Lines Test
This two-page assessment on parallel, perpendicular, and intersecting lines is perfect for students to demonstrate their understanding of basic geometry concepts. With a variety of problem types, it provides a well-rounded assessment of their skills. This parallel and perpendicular lines test includes the following tasks:
- Labeling pairs of lines as parallel, perpendicular, or intersecting
- Completing a table that records the number of each type of line pair in various shapes
- Drawing different pairs of parallel, perpendicular, and intersecting lines
- Highlighting parallel lines in given shapes
- Writing a brief explanation of the differences between parallel, perpendicular, and intersecting lines
An answer key is also included to make grading quick and easy. This parallel and perpendicular lines test is ideal for reinforcing line relationships and preparing students for more advanced geometry concepts!
Other Uses For Our Parallel and Perpendicular Lines Quiz
This resource was created for assessment, but of course, it can be used however you like in your classroom! Here are some other potential uses for this parallel and perpendicular lines quiz:
- Exit Ticket: Give students one section of this assessment at the end of your lesson to assess their understanding.
- Independent Practice: Instead of using this parallel and perpendicular lines test to assess, use it to give students more practice identifying different line types.
- Review: Perhaps you plan on assessing this and other geometry skills in a larger, more comprehensive assessment. This resource can serve as a great review of line types to prepare students for the larger test.
