Oh, dude, like, so you know how a parallelogram has four sides, right? Well, steering with a parallelogram is kinda like that, but with your car. The steering system uses two control arms connected to the steering box to move the wheels in sync, allowing you to turn left or right. It's all about that geometry, man.

When you turn the wheel a gear in the steering gearbox turns a lever called a pitman arm. The pitman arm is connected to a central rod which is connected to another pivoting lever called the idler arm. The pitman arm connects (in the other direction) to a tie rod, which turns one wheel. The idler arm connects to the other tie rod which turns the other wheel. The pitman arm and idler arm always move parallel to each other, hence the name parallelogram steering. A look at an image of the system would probably help you to understand how it works.
Circumference of a parallelogram = (2 x length) + (2 x width).
A parallelogram doesn't need any right angles in order to be a parallelogram.If it has any, then it's a special kind of parallelogram, called a "rectangle".Note:The way the properties of a parallelogram work out,if it has one right angle, then it has four of them.
height x base length. The area of a parallelogram is equal to the length of the base times the shortest distance to the opposite side.
No, a trapezoid is not a parallelogram.
If it is a parallelogram, then it has two sets of parallelogram sides. Parallelograms' opposite angles are congruent A parallelogram's bisectors are congruent. * * * * * A parallelogram's bisectors are NOT congruent.
