The document contains a series of riddles about 2D shapes answered by Mr. Azzopardi. Each riddle provides clues about the number of sides and vertices of a shape and asks the reader to identify it. The riddles cover common shapes like squares, rectangles, triangles, circles as well as less common shapes like rhombuses, pentagons, hexagons and octagons. After each riddle the answer is provided along with examples of objects that shape. The goal is to correctly answer each riddle based on the clues.
