Why is a rectangle a parallelogram but a parallelogram is not a rectangle?
A rectangle has three rules: -2 pairs of parallel sides -four 90 degree angles -2 pairs of congruent sides A parallelogram has three rules: -2 pairs of parallel sides - 2 pairs of congruent angles -2 pairs of congruent sides The only difference is that a rectangle has 90 degree angles, which a parallelogram doesn't have. That's why a parallelogram can't be a rectangle. A rectangle follows all the rules of being a parallelogram, so it can be a parallelogram.
Parallelogram with congruent sides and all right angles?
All sides congruent = square Two pairs of mutually congruent sides = rectangle
What are the similarities between a parallelogram and a trapezoid?
A parallelogram has two pairs of sides that are parallel when a trapezoid only has one. A parallelogram's opposite sides are congruent and opposite angles are congruent. A trapezoid has no opposite congruent sides or angles, unless it's an isosceles trapezoid, which base angles are congruent. They both have four sides and four interior angles that add up to 360 degrees.
How many pairs of congruent sides does each parallelogram have?
A parallelogram has two pairs of congruent sides.
In the parallelogram ABCD name three pairs of congruent angles and three pairs of congruent sides?
If the parallelogram is a square then angle A is congruent to angle B ,is congruent to angle C. AB is congruent to BC is congruent to CD.
A quadrilateral with 4 congruent angles and 2 pairs of congruent sides?
A rectangle has 4 congruent angles. 90 degrees. It is also a parallelogram, 2 pairs of congruent sides.
Has 4 congruent sides and 2 pairs of congruent angles?
rectangle
What shape has 2 pairs of congruent sides with those sides being non-adjacent and the angles are not all congruent?
This is a parallelogram. The first requirement is 2 pairs of congruent sides where the congruent sides are not adjacent. This is like a rectangle (excluding a square) that has two pairs of congruent sides where the congruent sides are not adjacent. But the angles are not all congruent (as set in the question) which pushes the shape into the "next less regular" shape, the parallelogram. The angles will not all be congruent, but it will have 2 pairs of congruent angles. There is no way to avoid the 2 pairs of congruent angles because of the requirement that the shape must have 2 pairs of congruent sides (the first requirement).

What quadrilateral has two pairs of opposite congruent sides and four congruent angles?
A parallelogram has the 2 pair of opposite congruent sides, but a rectangle (special case of parallelogram) also has the four congruent angles.
What quadrilateral has 4 congruent angles and 2 pairs of congruent sides?
It is rectangle and parallelogram. :). :D

How many pairs of congruent sides does each parallelogram have?
