Shape Matching: Diagonal Outlines
Pupils match irregular outlines with diagonal edges and eight corners by comparing the sequence of edges and angles around the shape, remembering that a flip reverses the order.

What this topic covers
- Describe an irregular outline as a sequence of edges: long or short, straight across, up-and-down or diagonal.
- Recognise that turning keeps the sequence the same while flipping reverses its order.
- Compare the complete sequence of edges to find the matching outline and reject substantially different ones.
