What is an easy conditional statement that relates to geometry?
If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent then the parallelogram is a rectangle.
What are the shape in geometry?
There are lot of shapes in geometry. It is called polygons. Triangle, trapezoid, circle, parallelogram, rhombus, rectangle, diagonal, square etc. Parallelogram, rhombus, rectangle, diagonal, square, and trapezoid are quadrilaterals.
Is th paralleloram a rhombus or a Rectangle?
I hope you know the definition of the parallelogram. i.e.,In geometry, a parallelogram is a quadrilateralwith two sets of parallel sides.so naturally rhombus and rectangle are special case of parallelogram. That means every rhombus is parallelogram similarly every rectangle is a parallelogram. But converse need not be true.So parallelogram not necessarily a rhombus or a rectangle.GMG.
What is parallelogram in geometry?
It is a quadrilateral with parallel sides. This includes a square and rectangle, given that a side is parallel with another side.
Who founded coordinate geometry?
Coordinate Geometry is also Analytic Geometry, founded by Rene Descartes.

What is symmetric in geometry?
square, rectangle, parallelogram, rhombus, triangle, kite

Can every rectangle be a parallelogram?
Well, a rectangle is defined as having two sets of parallel sides and four right angles, a parallelogram is defined as having two sets of parallel sides and two sets of supplementary angles. Therefor, a rectangle is always, by definition, a parallelogram. A parallelogram is not always a rectangle, but it can be.

What types of parallelograms are there?
A parallelogram in geometry is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel lines. A square, rectangle, rhombus, are examples of different types of parallelogram.
What is the real name of the kite?
In geometry, a kite, or deltoid is a quadrilateral with two disjoint pairs of congruent adjacent sides, in contrast to a parallelogram, where the congruent sides are opposite.
When is a rhombus a rectangle?
when its angles are right angles apex 5.5.3 quiz geometry.
What is parallelogram in geometry?
It is a quadrilateral with parallel sides. This includes a square and rectangle, given that a side is parallel with another side.
If a parallelogram has a right angle is it a rectangle?
No because it could be an irregular quadrilateral that includes a right angle. A rectangle has four right angles.Yes, a parallelogram with a right angle is always a rectangle. In fact, in my geometry book, some 55 years ago, such was the definition of rectangle.A parallelogram with one right angle will always have four right angles.It is true that you can draw an irregular quadrilateral with a right angle which is not a rectangle but the figure will not be a parallelogram.
If a parallelogram has a right angle then it is a rectangle?
No because it could be a right angled trapezoid. A rectangle must have four right angles. Yes, a parallelogram with a right angle is always a rectangle. In fact, in my geometry book, some 55 years ago such was the definition of rectangle. A parallelogram with one right angle will always have four right angles. The right angled trapezoids that are not rectangles are not parallelograms.
Who founded coordinate geometry?
Coordinate Geometry is also Analytic Geometry, founded by Rene Descartes.
