rhombus
What is a polygon has 4 sides and has only 1 pair of parallel sides?
rhombus
What are the differences between a trapezoid and a rhombus?
trapazoid has 1 set parallel lines and a rhombus has 2 sets of parallel lines
Is a rhombus is a trapezoid?
Technically, yes - a trapezoid is a four-sided figure with two parallel sides. A rhombus is a four-sided figure with two pair of parallel sides. A rhombus might be described as a special trapezoid since it does have two parallel sides, but others might argue against such an interpretation.Likewise, a square could be described as a special rhombus (or a very special trapezoid), since a square is a four-sided figure with two pair of parallel sides AND four right angles.
What is a quadrilateral with 1 pair of parallel sides?
This shape is called a rhombus. Its area can be found by averages the two "bases" (i.e. the parallel sides: (b1+b2)/2) and multiplying that average by the height of the rhombus. Remember, the height must be perpendicular to one of the bases.
