Do all quadrilaterals have opposite sides parallel?
No, only trapeziums (1 pair), parallelograms and squares (both pairs)
Why can all squares be classified as parallelograms but not all parallelograms can be classified as squares?
A parallelogram is a four-sided figure with opposite sides parallel. Squares and rectangles are two examples of parallelograms. A square is a four-sided figure that has four equal sides, and opposite sides are parallel.
Do all squares have two pairs of parallel sides?
Yes the sides are all the same as well too.
Are all sided shapes parallelograms?
No. Parallelograms have only 4 sides with 2 sets of parallel sides: they include squares, rectangles, and rhombuses (rhombi, diamond shapes). Because opposite angles are equal, each pair of parallel sides is equal in length. (For squares and "equilateral rhombi" all four sides are equal in length.)
What is a parallellogram with 4 right angles but not 4 equal sides?
A rectangle :pParallelograms are quadrilaterals that have pairs of opposite sides that at parallel to each other.The only parallelograms with right angles are squares and rectangles. And squares have all congruent sides.
A figure has 2 sides of parallel sides and 4 right angles All of the sides are the same lenght What are the 3 names for the figure?
The 3 names for this figure are: 1. Square - all sides are parallel, there are 4 right angles, and all the sides are the same length. All squares are quadrilaterals and parallelograms. 2. Quadrilateral - 4 sides. NOT all quadrilaterals are squares, however. 3. Parallelogram - all sides are parallel. NOT all parallelograms are squares, however.

Is every rectangle also a square?
Yes all squares meet the requirements of a rectangle. They are equiangular quadrilaterals (have 4 equal angles) and have two pairs of opposite parallel sides. Squares are a subset of all equilateral rectangles. Thus, all squares are rectangles, but only some rectangles are squares.Yes all squares are rectangles because they have four equal angles and two pairs of opposite parallel sides. Not all rectangles are squares however, because only some of them are equilateral.
What is a parallellogram with 4 right angles but not 4 equal sides?
A rectangle :pParallelograms are quadrilaterals that have pairs of opposite sides that at parallel to each other.The only parallelograms with right angles are squares and rectangles. And squares have all congruent sides.
Can you call a 4 sided shape a parallellogram?
Only if 2 sides are parallel with each other, and the other two sides are also parallel with each other. All squares are rectangles. All rectangles are parallelograms. All parallelograms are 4 sided. But not all 4-sided are parallelograms, not all parallelograms are rectangles, and not all rectangles are squares.
What shape is a square but not a parelellogram?
No shape is a square but not a parallelogram as all squares are parallelograms: All parallelograms have opposite sides parallel and of equal length, and opposite angles are equal. All squares have opposite sides that are parallel and of equal length, and opposite angles are equal; thus all squares are parallelograms. However, all squares also have all angles equal to 90o and all four sides equal, but some parallelograms have angles not all 90o and/or not all four sides of equal length; thus not all parallelograms are squares.
What is the main difference between squares and trapezoids?
The main difference between squares and trapezoids is that, while the length all four sides of a square are equal, trapezoids have two sides with equal length and two sides of different length. Also, the opposite pairs of sides in a square are parallel, while only one pair of sides in a trapezoid is parallel.
Do parallelograms have to be squares?
No.Parallelograms have two pairs of parallel opposite sides; they do not have to be the same length.The opposite angles of a Parallelogram are equal; they do not have to be 90oA square is required to have all sides equal (opposite sites will be parallel) and all angles 90o (opposite angles are the same)Thus all squares are parallelograms, but only some parallelograms are squares.A rhombus is a parallelogram which has all sides the same length.
