What is the use of geometry in sports?
the angle that players kick in soccer the angle they swing the bat in baseball the angle they shoot in basketball soccer balls have pentagons and hexagons on them
How could you use the formulas to determine if a polygon on a coordinate plane is a rhombus?
The answer depends on what information you have. You would need to use the formulae for the distance between two points to check that all 4 sides were the same length. If so, the polygon is a rhombus. If you wish to exclude squares (which are technically rhombi), you would need to check that the gradients of any two adjacent sides did not multiply to -1, since if it did the sides are perpendicular and the rhombus is a square..
What is the rule for a rhombus?
It is required to use only the special drinking fountains, lunch counters, schools, and swimming pools that have been provided and are clearly marked for its use.
What shape do bees make use to make a beehive?
The cells made by bees in a hive are all hexagons.
Why do bees build their nests using pentagons?
They do not use pentagons but hexagons. Hexagons are the most efficient division of a surface.
What number will you get if you use the numbers one to seven once to make every line of three hexagons add up to the same number?
Three hexagons comprise more than 7 lines so you cannot use only seven numbers, once each, to make all the lines add up to the same number!
Why does a soccer ball have pentagons and hexagons on it?
They aren't - only. If you only used hexagons, you wouldn't be able to make them into a ball. Sticking only hexagons together would give you a flat piece of fabric. To get a ball shape, you use 12 pentagons, and 20 hexagons, with the same length sides. That combination is what allows you to make something nearly perfectly round out of bits that are actually flat.
How do you use the word rhombus in a sentence?
A rhombus is a square tilted on it's side. Or a rhombus is a diamond, or the sandbox looked like a rhombus.

I don't use the name "rhombus-quadrilateral", but perhaps the answer to your question is that a rhombus is a special kind of parallelogram
Why do architects and engineers use so many triangles in construction?
Triangles are rigid, quadrilaterals are not - a square can be "squashed" into rhombus.
How do you find the value of x in a rhombus?
To find the value of x in a rhombus, use these properties. All sides of a rhombus are the same length. Opposite angles of a rhombus are the same size and measure. Intersection of the diagonals of a rhombus form right angles. Sides are perpendicular. The diagonals of rhombus bisect each other. Adjacent angles add up to 180 degrees.
Use rhombus in a sentence?
in math class we learn about rhombuses
Can a square be a rhombus?
Yes, a square is a rhombus. It's just a specialized form or rhombus. Use the link to the Math Forum web site where this question is explained.No never. A square has four equal length sides and 90 degree angles in every corner. A rhombus has equal length sides, but they are not 90 degree angles
Why are hexagons used in Bees' nests?
That form is the best use of space and gives the largest number of cells for the least amount of wax.
