What is a polygon with 4 sides no right angles 2 parallel lines top and bottom and 2 lines on the sides that are perpendicular?
TRAPEZOID
Does a trapezoid contain 2 right angles?
Since a trapezoid is a quadrilateral whose bases are parallel and not congruent, then one of its sides can be perpendicular to its bases (as the shortest distance between two parallel lines). Such a trapezoid is called a right trapezoid.
Why can't a trapezoid have right angle?
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral that has one pair of parallel sides. Since a right angle is formed by two perpendicular lines, it would mean that one of the non-parallel sides would have to be perpendicular to one of the parallel sides, which violates the definition of a trapezoid. Therefore, a trapezoid cannot have a right angle.
The diagonals of a trapezoid are perpendicular?
Not usually.
The diagonals of an isosceles trapezoid are?
perpendicular
What shape has one set of perpendicular lines with four sides?
A right trapezoid has exactly one pair of perpendicular lines and is a quadrilateral.
How many parallel lines and perpendicular does a trazioud have?
A trapezoid has 2 parallel lines. It may or may not have perpendicular lines.
Does a trapezoid have a pair of perpendicular lines?
The only requirement for a trapezoid is that one pair of opposite sides be parallel. There could be trapezoids with a pair of perpendicular lines.
Are a trapezoid's diagonals ever perpendicular?
Yes, they can be. Here is an example to see how this is true. Construct two perpendicular lines AB and CD that intersect at a point O. Let AO = CO, BO = DO and AO ≠ BO, then ABDC forms an isosceles trapezoid. If the lines are not perpendicular, then also ABDC is an isosceles trapezoid and it has perpendicular diagonals.
How many pairs of perpendicular lines does a trapezoid have?
Can have no pairs or one pair...
Does a trapezoid have perpendicular liens?
No, but it does have 1 pair of opposite parallel lines of different lengths
How many perpendicular lines does a trapezoid have?
None, but u can draw two perpendiculars.
Does an isosceles trapezoid have parallel lines and perpendicular?
There is 1 set of parallel lines because the other lines will meet soon.:) i don't no if there are any perpendiclur lines. :(
