What is the difference between a parallelogram and a square?
A square is a parallelogram a parallelogram isn't always a square. The definition of parallelogram is a closed shape with two parallel sides. So a rectangle is a parallelogram and so is a square and a rombus. The definition of square is shape with four equal sides.
If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram will it always have equal angles?
Diagonally opposite pairs of angles will always be equal, but the only time all angles in a quadrilateral parallelogram are equal is when that shape is a rectangle.
What shape is a parallelogram but not a quadrilateral?
A shape that is a parallelogram but not a quadrilateral doesn't exist.
How many sides does a shape have to have to be a parallelogram?
A shape must have 4 sides in order to be a parallelogram (minus other defining characteristics a shape must have to be a parallelogram).
A kite is always a parallelogram?
Most kites are (its common). But there are other kites that are a different shape. The ones with a different shape are usually a bigger size.
Can a parallelogram be any type of shape?
No, because a parallelogram is always a 4 sided quadrilateral.
What is a rectangle always an example of?
A rectangle is always a quadrilateral and a parallelogram.
Is a parallelogram always have 4 right angles?
A parallelogram does not have to be four right angles. A parallelogram is a four sided shape with two parallel lines.

What shape is a parallelogram but not a quadrilateral?
A shape that is a parallelogram but not a quadrilateral doesn't exist.
Is it possible to draw a rectangle that in not a parallelogram?
Yes, a rectangle is not a parallelogram to begin with. The top side and bottom sides are longer than the sides. Rectangles ARE always parallelograms, they are just a specific type. The above answer is false. As long as the opposing sides are parallel, the shape is a parallelogram. Rectangles always have opposing sides that are parallel, since they are made from right angles. You cannot make a rectangle that is not a parallelogram. But you can make a parallelogram that is not a rectangle. If the shape is neither a parallelogram or a rectangle, than it is a quadrilateral.
What shape are always parallelograms?
parallelograms, rectangles, rhombus, square
How many sides does a shape have to have to be a parallelogram?
A shape must have 4 sides in order to be a parallelogram (minus other defining characteristics a shape must have to be a parallelogram).
How is a parallelogram different from a rhombus?
Technically, a rhombus is a parallelogram, but a parallelogram is not always a rhombus. A parallelogram is any four-sided shape with two sets of parallel lines. A rhombus is a parallelogram with all equivalent side lengths. So, a rhombus is a more specific parallelogram. (And so is a a square or a rectangle.)
