Two parallelograms have two sides 3 feet and 2 feet long one of the parallelograms is a rectangle and the other is not which has a bigger area and why?

The area of a parallelogram is base times perpendicular height With the dimensions given the perpendicular height of the rectangle will be greater than the parallelogram. Therefore the rectangle will have a greater area than the parallelogram.


A polyhedron with two parallel congruent bases and all other faces being parallelograms is what?

It is a skew prism. If the parallelograms are rectangles then it is a right prism.


If two parallelograms are similar what do you know about the ratios of the two side lengths within one parallelograms and the ratios of the correspondingside lengths in the other parallelogram?

If and when two parallelograms are similar, you know that the ratio of two side lengths within one parallelogram will describe the relationship between the corresponding side lengths in a similar parallelogram. If and when two parallelograms are similar, you know that the ratio of corresponding side lengths in the other parallelogram will give you the scale factor that relates each side length in one parallelogram to the corresponding side length in a similar parallelogram.


Is every rectangle is a parallelogram?

No. A rectangle is a parallelogram because all of its sides are parallel, but a parallelogram is not a rectangle because it does not have all right angles. It is a true statement to say that all rectangles are parallelograms. However, the statement that all parallelograms are rectangles is false. A parallelogram is a shape where its opposite sides are parallel to each other, including squares, hexagons, octagons, etc.


What is 5 degrees less than 3150mm?

There is no sensible answer to this question. A millimetre is a measure of length, with dimensions [L]. A degree is a measure of angulatr displacement or temperature [unspecified], with some other dimensions. Basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot combine measures with different dimensions.

Do all parallelograms have diagonals which bisect?

Yes; all parallelograms have diagonals that bisect each other. Other properties of parallelograms are: * The opposite sides are congruent. * The opposite sides are parallel. * The opposite angles are congruent.

If two triangles have the same base then the areas will be the same?

Not always because that will depend on their other 2 dimensions


Can you call a 4 sided shape a parallellogram?

Only if 2 sides are parallel with each other, and the other two sides are also parallel with each other. All squares are rectangles. All rectangles are parallelograms. All parallelograms are 4 sided. But not all 4-sided are parallelograms, not all parallelograms are rectangles, and not all rectangles are squares.


Are quadrilateral parallelograms?

Quadrilateral can certainly be parallelograms, but they can also be squares, rectangles, and other 4-sided shapes.All parallelograms are quadrilaterals but not all quadrilaterals are parallelograms.


How do cm 3 power and ml compare?

Cubic centimeters and milliliters are the same volume. One is length of dimensions and the other is in volume units.


All quadrilaterals are parallelograms?

Some are, and some are not. A parallelogram is a special kind of quadrilateral ... one in which every side is parallel to the one across from it. So all parallelograms are quadrilaterals, but there are also a lot of other quadrilaterals that are not parallelograms.
