How do you use geometry words to describe how diagonals of quadrilaterals make triangles in a good fourth grade understandable way in a sentence?
When you draw the diagonals of a quadrilateral (a four-sided shape), they create triangles within the quadrilateral. These triangles are formed by connecting non-adjacent vertices of the quadrilateral. By understanding that the diagonals split the quadrilateral into smaller triangles, students can see how geometric shapes can be broken down and analyzed.
What shape has 4 sides but diagonals are not equal?
rhombus
What shape has 2 pairs of parallel sides and equal length diagonals which do not cross at 90 degrees?
A parallelogram (or rectangle) which is not a rhombus (or square).
What is a regular quadrilateral and what is another name for this shape?
A regular quadrilateral is a square. It is a four-sided figure with all sides being the same length and all angles equal (right angles).
Which shape has diagonals which are equal?
Any rectangle will have diagonals that are equal. Don't forget that since squares are also a special type of rectangle that they would also have congruent diagonals as well.
