From the given quadilaterals, let's determine the specific name for each based on the property marked.

• 1a. ,All four sides are marked equal.

Since all four sides are equal, we can say the specific name for the quadilateral is a Square.

A square is a quadilateral with four equal sides.

• 1b. In this quadilateral, we have one pair of parallel sides.

Given that the quadilateral is NOT drawn to scale, the quadilatral here can be said to be a Trapezoid.

A trapezoid is a quadilateral with one pair of parallel side.

• 1c. In this quadilateral, all four angles are marked as right angles.

Given that all four angles are right angles, the specific name for the quadilateral is a Rectangle.

A rectangle is a quadilateral with four interior right angles.

ANSWER:

• 1a. Square

,

• 1b. Trapezoid
