Match the line length to the term. 1. five feet monometer 2. one foot tetrameter 3. two feet hexameter 4. seven feet trimeter 5. four feet heptameter 6.Three feet pentameter 7. six feet octameter 8. eight feet dimeter

1. five feet - pentameter

2. one foot - monometer

3. two feet - dimeter

4. seven feet - heptameter

5. four feet - tetrameter

6. three feet - trimeter

7. six feet - hexameter

8. eight feet - octameter

Explanation:

This question refers to meter in poetry, which is done by counting the number of syllables. However, different types of meter will count syllables in different ways. An iambic pentameter, for example, will consider an unstressed syllable plus a stressed one as one foot. Each line will repeat that pattern five times, which is why it is called pentameter.

To match the columns above, we need to know the meaning of the different prefixes used:

mono - one

di - two

tri - three

tetra - four

penta - five

hexa - six

hepta - seven

octa - eight

Remember that those same prefixes are used in other fields of knowledge? For instance, in geometry, a pentagon is a figure with five sides and five angles.
