We are interested in the dimensions of a certain rectangle. This rectangle has length twice the side of the square and width three units less than its sides of this square. If the two areas are equal?
The rectangle is 12 units by 3 units.
How are a triangular prism and a rectangular prism are they different?
a triangular prism is different from a rectangular prism because: their names are different a triangular prism has a triangle for its' base a rectangular prism has a rectangle base a triangular prism has less sides than a rectangular prism a rectangular prism has more sides than a triangular prism
How you could use grid paper to draw a rectangle with a perimeter of 18 units?
Since the perimeter is 18, the sum of the length and breadth is 18/2 units = 9 units. Draw a straight line on the grid of less than 9 units. At right angles to that line, draw another line so that the two lines have a combined length of 9 units. These two lines are the two adjacent lines of the rectangle. Use the grid to draw line parallel to these so that you have a rectangle.
A rectangle has a perimeter of 28 centimeters The width of the rectangle is 2 centimeters less than the length What is the area of the rectangle?
Let x be L, so W = x - 2 P = 2(L + W) substitute 28 for P, x for L, and x - 2 for W; 28 = 2(x + x - 2) divide by 2 to both sides; 14 = 2x - 2 divide by 2 to both sides; 7 = x - 1 add 1 to both sides; 8 = x x - 2 = 8 - 2 = 6 So L = 8 cm and W = 6 cm. A = LW = 8 x 6 = 48 Thus the area is 48 cm^2
A triangle has four sides?
Incorrect, a triangle will never have more or less than three sides.
Which quadrilateral has less than 2 pairs of parallel sides.?
A trapezoid has only 1 pair of parallel sides of different lengths
What is the fewest sides a quadrilateral can have?
A quadrilateral always has 4 sides... no more no less.
What quadrilateral has less than 2 pair of parallel lines?
Trapezoid
What polygon has more sides then a quadrilateral but less sides than a hexagon?
A quadrilateral has 4 sides anda hexagon has 6 sides. So the polygon between them is the one that has 5 sides. That is the pentagon.
What are the qualifications of a rectangle?
More or less the same as a square. 4 right angles (90 degrees) 2 pairs of parallel lines.If you can guarantee that the opposite sides of your 4-sided figure are parallel,OR that they're equal, AND that the figure has one right angle inside it, thenyou can be sure that it's a rectangle.
Which polygon has more than 3 sides and less than 7 sides?
A quadrilateral, pentagon or hexagon.
Are opposite sides of a quadrilateral always congruent?
No. For any random quadrilateral, they are actually "never" congruent. The probability of the sides being so is infinitely less than the probability they will not be.
Does a trapezoid have at least one pair of parallel sides?
Not exactly. A trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel sides -- no more and no less.
Which quadrilateralteral has less than 2 pairs of parallel sides?
A trapezoid has only 1 pair of parallel sides of different lengths
Can a quadrilateral with four equal sides have less than four lines of symmetry?
Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.
Which shape has less than 4 sides has a right angle and is not a quadrilateral?
A right angle triangle
What is the sum of all angles in a quadrilatiral?
A quadrilateral is a 4 sided closed shape, like a square or rectangle. There's also a rhombus (tilty, squished square), diamond, parrallelogram, and many others. As long as it has 4 sides and is closed, it's a quadrilateral. Quad means 4. Every quadrilateral has 4 angles inside, as well as 4 sides. An easy example is a square, or rectangle. Pick up a textbook if you're having trouble visualizing, or draw a square on a piece of paper. Squares (and rectangles) have four 90 degree angles. 4*90 = 360 degrees in a quadrilateral. Side note: The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. What about shapes with 5 sides... 6 sides... or more? Do you think a 5-sided shape will have 360 degrees in angle sums? More or less?
