What shape has 4 sides that are not equal?
A quadrilateral. It may be a rectangle, parallelogram, trapezoid, or an irregular quadrilateral.
Why is a parallelogram always a quadrilateral but a quadrilateral is only sometimes a parallelogram?
A parallelogram must have 4 sides and so it must be a quadrilateral. However, the sides of a quadrilateral need not be parallel so a quadrilateral need not be a parallelogram.
What is a quadrilateral parallelogram?
A quadrilateral is a polygon with four sides. A parallelogram is a quadrilateral in which the opposite sides are parallel.
If a parallelogram has a right angle is it a rectangle?
No because it could be an irregular quadrilateral that includes a right angle. A rectangle has four right angles.Yes, a parallelogram with a right angle is always a rectangle. In fact, in my geometry book, some 55 years ago, such was the definition of rectangle.A parallelogram with one right angle will always have four right angles.It is true that you can draw an irregular quadrilateral with a right angle which is not a rectangle but the figure will not be a parallelogram.
If one diagonal of a quadrilateral bisects the other when is the quadrilateral a parallelogram?
In this case, the quadrilateral is sometimes a parallelogram.
