I have four congruent sides two obtuse angles two acute angles and two pairs of parallel sides. What am I?
A parallelogram
What shape has 2 pairs of congruent sides with those sides being non-adjacent and the angles are not all congruent?
This is a parallelogram. The first requirement is 2 pairs of congruent sides where the congruent sides are not adjacent. This is like a rectangle (excluding a square) that has two pairs of congruent sides where the congruent sides are not adjacent. But the angles are not all congruent (as set in the question) which pushes the shape into the "next less regular" shape, the parallelogram. The angles will not all be congruent, but it will have 2 pairs of congruent angles. There is no way to avoid the 2 pairs of congruent angles because of the requirement that the shape must have 2 pairs of congruent sides (the first requirement).
Select one attribute that describes the quadrilateral. A. Only one pair of opposite sides are parallel. B. There are no right angles. C. Both pairs of opposite sides are congruent and parallel. D. All sides are an equal length?
C. Both pairs of opposite sides are congruent and parallel.
What shape is quadrillateral?
A quadrilateral is a four-sided polygon (closed shape made with line segments). Quadrilaterals have four angles (vertices) and come in many different shapes, depending on the length of their sides and the kinds of angles they have. The five most common quadrilaterals are the rectangle, square, parallelogram, rhombus, and trapezoid. A rectangle is a quadrilateral with opposite sides congruent (same length) and parallel. It has four right (90º) angles. A square has ALL four sides that are congruent, and two pairs of parallel sides. It also has four right angles. A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides. They form two acute and two obtuse angles. A rhombus has two pairs of parallel sides, but all sides are congruent. They also form two acute and two obtuse angles. Finally, a trapezoid, has only one pair of parallel sides. The parallel sides are NOT congruent. A trapezoid can be formed by two acute and two obtuse angles, or by two right angles, one acute, and one obtuse angle.
What is a four-sided polygon with opposite sides parallel and congruent and four right angles?
A rectangle is a quadrilateral with opposite sides parallel and congruent and four right angles. If all four sides are congruent, it is a square.
