How many are there of a parallel sides in a square?

Two pairs. Again, this is not an "improvement" on that answer, just an elaboration. The dictionary defines, in geometry, a 'square' as a rectangle having all four sides of equal length. Therefore two pairs of parallel sides as the person said.


What is a triangle with all three sides are equal length?

If all three sides are equal in length, the triangle is said to be Equilateral.


What is the difference between an isosceles and acute triangle?

They both have 3 sides but an isosceles triangle has two equal sides whereas an acute triangle with different acute angles has no equal sides and is said to be a scalene triangle, or an acute triangle with three equal acute angles (of 60° each) and three equal sides is called an equilateral triangle.


What is triangle with at least two sides equal?

A ISOSCELES triangle. With all sides equal it is an EQUILATERAL triangle With one right angle it is a RIGHT ANGLED traigle/ With no sides equal it is a SCALENE triangle.


What is a 2 sided polygon called?

A two sided polygon is called a bigon, and it exists in spherical geometry. (the previous answerer said this: "a polygon has 3 or more sides retard idiot so how stupid can you be a polygon can not have 2 sides dumb*ss" - and I would advise him/her to shout at the mirror next time)


With similar triangles the ratios of all three parts of corresponding sides are never equal?

The ratios of all three corresponding sides is ALWAYS equal. But there is nothing that can be said about parts of the sides.


Does a polygon have to have equal sides?

No, it does not. A polygon is an enclosed plane area whose boundaries comprise straight lines. There is no requirement for the sides to be equal. If they are, the polygon is said to be equilateral.


What has 2 pair of parallel sides 3 equal sides and 4 right angles?

the last person who answered this said pentagon, but there isn't a correct answer for this. A square would be the closest, but it has FOUR equal sides.


What is geomertic figures if they have equal corresponding angles and proportional corresponding sides?

They are said to be similar


What are congruent shapes?

In geometry, it refers to two shapes that are identical in shape and size. If one shape can be moved - without stretching or cutting - so that it exactly covers another, then the two shapes are said to be congruent.


A polygon which has equal sides and equal angles is?

Such a polygon is said to be a "regular" polygon, meaning that all its sides are equal and all its angles are equal, so we have; equilateral triangle; square; pentagon; hexagon; heptagon;octagon;nonagon;decagon - to give but the first nine possibilities. The next one would have 11 equal sides and angles, and I don't know its name.


Are all polygons are equilateral?

Yes in general polygons that have equal interior angles also have equal sides and they are said to be regular polygons. But a rectangle is an exception.
