A first look

This shelf is still being planted — the questions are being written and checked. Come back soon. A Skill needs at least 5 checked questions before it opens here.

Question 1 of 3

Which of the following figures has exactly one line of symmetry?

Question 2 of 3

You have 12 straws of equal length to use as the edges of a solid cube. Each corner of the cube must be joined by a connector that can attach exactly three straws at a point. How many connectors are required to complete the cube?

Question 3 of 3

Three identical squares, each with side length 5 cm, are arranged to form an L‑shaped figure as follows: two squares are placed side‑by‑side so that they share a full side, forming a rectangle that is 5 cm tall and 10 cm long. The third square is then placed so that one of its sides of length 5 cm coincides with the top side of the leftmost square of the rectangle, extending the figure upward. What is the perimeter of the resulting L‑shaped figure?
