Is it true that a four sided shape is always a square why?
No, a four sided shape is not always a square. The mathematical name for a four sided shape is a QUADRILATERAL. The definition of a square is a four sided shape with four equal sides and angles, internal angles totalling 360 degrees and four lines of symmetry. If a shape has all of these properties, it is a square.Possibilities for a four sided shape areAs said above, all are called quadrilaterals, but some have special propertiesA Parallelogram, which has opposite sides parallel to each othera Rhombus, which has all sides equal and parallel, but not necessarily with right anglesA Rectangle, which is a parallelogram with right angles.A Square, which is a rhombus rectangle. All four sides equal, all angles equal and right, all diagonals bisecting each other. It really is hip to be square.
A four sided shape of which each of the opposite two sides are parallel with each other?
parallelogram, rectangle, square, rhombus
What shape has four congruent sides an 4 right angles?
A square always has, and any polygon with more than four sides can have.
Is a four sided figure a parallelogram?
Four-sided figures are called quadrilaterals. They can be parallelograms, but do not have to be. They can be: square rhombus parallelogram quadrangle rhomboid rectangle oblong kite trapezium trapezoid
What is A four sided figure with 2 pairs of parallel sides and no right angles?
Assuming that the figure qualifies as a polygon, then all figures in this category are parallelograms. If all sides are equal in length then the shape is also a rhombus.
