I have 2 pairs of parallel sides. My opposite sides are equal in length. All my angles are equal in size. I have two lines of symmetry. What am I?
The answer is any rectangle that is not a square: such a rectangle has two lines of symmetry, whereas a square has four.
How many equal sides does rectangle have?
A rectangle has two pairs of equal sides. In other words, opposite sides of a rectangle are equal in length. This property distinguishes a rectangle from a square, which has all four sides equal in length.
How is a square different from a rectangle?
How is a square different from a rectangle?In a square, all 4 sides are of equal measure. In a rectangle that is not a square, the two pairs of opposite sides will be of unequal length. Note that a square is a special case of a rectangle, so care should be given in considering the difference.a square has four lines of symmetry and a rectangle has two.
Does a rectangle have all equal sides?
no it does not but it has two pairs of parallel lines. A square has all equal sides. A rectangle has 2 pairs of equal sides though!
How many axes of symmetry dose a rectangle have?
A rectangle has two axes of symmetry: one horizontal and one vertical. The horizontal axis of symmetry runs through the center of the rectangle from one side to the other, dividing it into two equal halves. The vertical axis of symmetry also runs through the center of the rectangle, perpendicular to the horizontal axis, dividing it into two equal halves as well.
