I’ve been fortunate to work with many teachers across the US (and Canada) in consulting role, and sometimes I’ve worked with teachers who wanted to create some Venn Diagram questions. Below are a few of the ones we came up with for Geometry topics.

They were great to use as a warm-up thinking problem (maybe have students discuss with a partner) at the start of class. They were also great as part of a problem set (for class or homework), to give students a challenge to think more deeply about vocabulary and categories…and to be creative!
The task is usually to “fill in the blank” where you see a big red question mark.
Sometimes we had more than one red question mark.
Some were much more open to interpretation, which led to rich discussions.
