What are the similarities of a rhombus and a parallelogram?
They are just different names for the same shape. * * * * * Actually, they are not. A rhombus is a parallelogram with all its sides of the same length. It is, therefore a special kind of parallelogram. (Just like a square is a special kind of rectangle). So all properties of a parallelogram apply to a rhombus.
Properties of a parallelogram?
A parallelogram has 2 pairs of parallel lines
Can a parallelogram be a rombus?
No because a parallelogram has different properties to a rhombus but they are both 4 sided quadrilaterals
What are necessary when proving that the oppsite sides of a parallelogram are congruent check all that apply?
To prove that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, you need to establish that the shape is a parallelogram, which can be done by showing that either pairs of opposite sides are parallel (using the properties of parallel lines) or that the diagonals bisect each other. Additionally, applying the properties of congruent triangles (such as using the Side-Side-Side or Side-Angle-Side postulates) can further support the proof. Ensure to use clear definitions and properties of parallelograms throughout the proof.
Do rectangles have all properties of a parallelogram?
Yes. They both = 360 degrees
