How many triangles can be formed by the diagonals of one vertex of a four-sided polygon?
Two triangles can be formed by the diagonals of one vertex of a four-sided polygon.
What are 10 properties of a rectangle?
1. Opposite sides are equal 2. it is a parallelogram 3. all 4 angles (at vertices) are 900 4. diagonals are equal in length 5. diagonals bisect each other 6. triangles formed by a diagonal and 2 sides (opposite side for each triangle) are congruent 7. among the four triangles that are formed by the 2 diagonals, the vertically opposite triangles are congruent 8. if length=breadth, then the rectangle is a square 9. perimeter of the rectangle = 2 * ( length + breadth) 10. area of rectangle = length * breadth
How many triangles are formed in drawing diagonals in a square?

What figure is formed when you put two congruent triangles together?
Figure that are congruent are shapes are the same size and shape. So when two formed congruent triangles are both together they fit just right.
What quadirlateral is formed by 2 right scalene triangles?
If the triangles are congruent and you match the hypotenera the right way, you can get a rectangle. If the triangles are not congruent, you can't even necessarily get a quadrilateral.
How many pairs of congruent triangles are formed diagonals of a rectangle?
Four.
How many pairs of congruent triangles are formed by the diagonals of a rectangle?

How do you prove that the diagonals of an isosceles trapezoid are equal?
Let's draw the isosceles trapezoid ABCD, where AD ≅ BC, and mADC ≅ mBCD. If we draw the diagonals AC and BD of the trapezoid two congruent triangles are formed, ∆ ADC ≅ ∆ BDC (SAS Postulate: If two sides and the angle between them in one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts in another triangle, then the triangles are congruent). Since these triangles are congruent, AC ≅ BD.
How many diagonals are in a quadrilateral?
A diagonal line of a polygon is a line that joins any two vertices not already joined by a side.A polygon with n sides has n(n-3)/2 diagonals→ a quadrilateral with 4 sides has 4(4-3)/2 = 4 × 1 ÷ 2 = 2 diagonalQuadrilaterals include:Squares, rectangles, rhombuses, parallelograms, kites, trapezia (trapezoids).The diagonals of a quadrilateral divide the quadrilateral into 4 triangles. depending upon the quadrilateral some, or all of the triangles may be congruent.The properties of the diagonals of each quadrilateral are:square: equal and bisect each other at 90°; the triangles formed are all congruentrectangle: equal and bisect each other but not at 90°; the triangles formed are all congruentrhombus: not equal but bisect each other at 90°; the triangles formed are all congruentparallelogram: not equal but do bisect each other, but not at 90°; the triangles formed are congruent in (opposite) pairskite: perpendicular and the longer diagonal bisects the shorter diagonal; the triangles formed are congruent in (adjacent) pairstrapezium (trapezoid): only of equal length and bisect each other if it is an isosceles trapezium (trapezoid) and the triangles formed are congruent in (opposite) pairs; otherwise they are of differing lengths and just intersect each others and the triangles formed are non-congruent.
How many triangles are formed when any parallelogram and its diagonals are drawn?
how many triangles are formed when any parallelogram and it diagonals are drawn
What are four attributes of a rhombus?
1. Opposite angles congruent 2. All sides are congruent 3. The diagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each other 4. Diagonals bisect the angles NOTE: Four congruent right triangles are formed with the right angles It has all of the properties of a parallelogram and a kite
If all of the diagonals are drawn from a vertex of an n-gon how many triangles are formed?

5 triangles are formed.
How many triangles can be formed by the diagonals of one vertex of a four-sided polygon?

How many triangles are formed by the diagonals in a 21 sided polygon?
The number of triangles formed by the diagonals of a 21 sided polygon is C(21,3) = 21x20x19/3x2x1 = 1,330.
Why is drawing the diagonals of a parallelogram help full in proving many of the parallelograms properties?
It is helpful (not help full) because the two triangles formed by either diagonal are congruent.
