How is the height of a parallelogram similar and different from the width of a rectangle?
The width of a rectangle is the same as one of its sides. That is not [usually] the case for a parallelogram.
How are a rhombus similar to a parallelogram?
Rhombus is to parallelogram as square is to rectangle. I hope this simple analogy helps
In what way is a rectangle like a parallelogram?
A rectangle has two sets of two opposite sides of equal length - as does a parallelogram.
How does a parallelogram relate to a rectangle?
A rectangle is a parallelogram but a parallelogram is not a rectangle. A rectangle needs all 90 degree angles but a parallelogram dosnt.
How is a parallelogram and a rectangle the same?
A rectangle is a parallelogram but a parallelogram need not be a rectangle and so they are not the same.

Why is a parallelogram the same as a rectangle?
A parallelogram is similar to a rectangle in that both are four-sided polygons where opposing sides are congruent and opposing angles are congruent. They differ in that a rectangle has 4, 90 degree angles whereas a parallelogram's angle can range anywhere from >0 to
What is a rectangle rhombus?
A rectangle rhombus is a diamond-like shape, similar to a parallelogram, that has equal angles and line measurements.
How is a rectangle similar to a parallelogram?

Which figure area formula is most similar to the area formula for a parallelogram?
Rectangle
Is a parrallelagram always a rectangle?
No, it's the other way round. A rectangle is always a parallelogram.
Why would the formula of area of a parallelogram be similar to a rectangle?
Because the area of a parallelogram is length times perpendicular height and the area of a rectangle is also length times perpendicular height
