The Quantile® Framework for Mathematics, developed by educational measurement and research organization MetaMetrics®, comprises more than 500 skills and concepts (called QTaxons) taught from kindergarten through high school. The Quantile Framework depicts the developmental nature of mathematics and the connections between mathematics content across the strands. By matching a student’s Quantile measure with the Quantile measure of a mathematical skill or concept, you can determine if the student is ready to learn that skill, needs to learn supporting concepts first, or has already learned it.

Analyzing Quadrilaterals & Drawing Figures A quadrilateral is any polygon that has 4 sides. There are many kinds of quadrilaterals, including: trapezoid a quadrilateral with exactly 1 pair of parallel sides parallelogram a quadrilateral with 2 pairs of parallel sides rectangle a parallelogram with 4 right angles rhombus a parallelogram with 4 congruent sides square a parallelogram with 4 congruent sides and 4 right angles

Use a ruler marked in centimeters and millimeters to draw the line segments, lines, and rays described below. For each one, mark the two points and make sure to use arrows correctly for rays and lines. A line segment connects two points.
A line passes through two points and keeps going in both directions.
A ray begins at one point and keeps going in just one direction.
