What kind of triangles are formed if the parallelogram is divided into two?
You would get two scalene triangles.
Why are the diagonals of a parallelogram not congruent?
If you look ate the parallelogram you'll see two kinds of triangles. Two that have longer diagonal and bigger angle, and two sides of parallelogram. Then, you have two triangles that have two sides of parallelogram, shorter diagonal and smaller angle. This triangles obviously have two sides that are the same (sides of parallelogram). If this two triangles had been congruent diagonals would have been congruent too, since these triangles would have been congruent. But this is not true unless angles of parallelogram are the same, therefore diagonals cannot be the same length. Of course, there are parallelograms that have same angles, and those are square and rectangle, which do have the same angles. I hope I made this more clear, and I'm sorry for my bad English.
How are parallelogram related to triangles and rectangles?
If you draw one diagonal across a parallelogram, it will split it into two congruent triangles. A rectangle is a parallelogram, with all four angles equal to 90°.
What shape can you make with 2 small triangles?
the shape that can make two smaller triangles is parallelogram.
What do you get when you join two congruent equilateral triangles?
There is more than one way to join two triangles. It would be possile to assemble a parallelogram out of two congruent equilateral triangles.
In a parallelogram a diagonal separates the parallelogram into?
two congruent triangles
In a parallelogram a diagnol separates the parallelogram into?
two congruent triangles
What divides a parallelogram into two congruent triangles?
The diagonal of a parallelogram divides it into two congruent triangles. This is because the diagonal creates two pairs of congruent triangles by dividing the parallelogram into two equal halves.
What is the name of a quadrilateral made from two identical isosceles triangles?
In general, a parallelogram. But if the triangles are joined along their odd side, a rhombus.
What kind of triangles are formed if the parallelogram is divided into two?
You would get two scalene triangles.
Can a parallelogram be separated into two triangles?
yes
Are types of scalene triangles are parallelogram?
No triangle is a parallelogram. No two sides are parallel.
What 2 triangles are formed when split a parallelogram in half?
Two congruent triangles.

A diagonal separates the parallelogram into?
Two congruent triangles.. To prove it, use the SSS Postulate.
What shape can you make with 2 small triangles?
the shape that can make two smaller triangles is parallelogram.
