Are parallelograms special retangles?
Yes they are special rectangles that are tilted over
What is a 4 sided parallagram called?
All parallelograms have four sides - it's their defining characteristic.
Do parallelograms have 4 equal sides?
Yeah they have 4 equal sides Only some parallelograms have 4 equal sides. Such a parallelogram is called a rhombus. In general, a parallelogram has two different pairs of opposed equal sides. Like a rectangle given a sideways push at opposite corners.
Does a parallelogram have equal sides?
A rhombus is a parallelogram with 4 equal sides. Many parallelograms do not have 4 equal sides. All parallelograms have 2 pairs of equal opposite sides.
Are all quadrilaterals parallelograms?
It is a quadrilateral but not a parallelogram since it does not have two pair of parallel sides. no, but all parallelograms are quadrilaterals. Quadrilateral means four sides, paralleograms means the sides are parallel. The only quadrilateral parallelograms are Square, rectangle, rhombus. * * * * * ... and parallelograms themselves: 2 pairs of parallel sides which are also equal.
Do parallelograms have equal sides?
Some do, some don't. A parallelogram that has equal sides is usually called either a "rhombus" or a "square". None of the other parallelograms do.
Parallelograms having equal diagonals and equal adjacent sides are called?
rhombus
Are parallelograms special retangles?
Yes they are special rectangles that are tilted over
Are some parallelograms hexagons?
No because parallelograms have 4 sides whereas hexagons have 6 sides
Do parallelograms have 2 parallel sides?
Parallelograms are made up of two pair of parallel sides
Do parallelograms have four congruent sides?
Not all parallelograms do but a rhombus does.
Are pentagons parallelograms?
no - parallelograms have four sides; pentagons have five.
How many sides do 5 parallelograms have?
A parallelogram has four sides, so 5 parallelograms altogether have 4 * 5 = 20 sides
Can all parallelograms be called rectangles?
No, but all are roughly square or rectangular. The classification "parallelogram" means that there are four sides and opposite sides are parallel. Only for SQUARES and RECTANGLES are there 4 right angles (90 degrees) such that adjacent sides are perpendicular.The other parallelograms do not have any right angles: the RHOMBUS and the RHOMBOID. The rhombus (diamond shape, tilted square) has four sides of equal length, while the rhomboid (stretched diamond) has opposite sides of equal length and parallel, but the two sets of opposite sides have different lengths, e.g. as in the faces of rhomboid parallelpipeds.
Are some trapesoids parallelograms?
No trapezoids are not parallelograms. Trapezoids are actually quadrilaterals and they have one pair of opposite sides. Parallelograms by definition have 2 pairs of parallel sides.
What shapes are not parallelograms?
Shapes having less than 4 sides or more than 4 sides are not parallelograms
What is a 4 sided parallagram called?
All parallelograms have four sides - it's their defining characteristic.
