Students will practice identifying and applying the properties of rhombi and squares to solve for sides and angles with this cut and paste puzzle. Several problems require that students solve a multi-step equation or apply the Pythagorean Theorem.
Properties included for rhombi: opposite sides are congruent, opposite sides are parallel, diagonals bisect each other, opposite angles are congruent, consecutive angles are supplementary, four congruent sides, diagonals are perpendicular, and diagonals bisect opposite angles.
Properties included for squares: All properties of parallelograms, rectangles, and rhombi.
Students solve each problem, then cut out the squares and rearrange so the edges meet and paste onto a template. A template to paste the solution and answer key included. Some more challenging problems are included. This activity was created for a high school level geometry class. The box letters make it easy for students to organize their work AND make it easier to grade!
