What are perpendicular and parallel lines on a polygon?

A polygon need not have ANY perpendicular or parallel lines. For example, consider an equilateral triangle. It can happen that two sides of a polygon, extended if necessary, meet at a point where they form a 90 degree angle. Those two lines are perpendicular. There may be pairs of lines such that, no matter how far you extend them in either direction, they will never meet. Such lines are parallel. A triangle cannot have parallel lines but it can have perpendicular lines. Any polygon of 4 or more sides can have sides that are perpendicular or parallel (or some of each).


Which shape has some parellel sides and some perpendicular?

A square and a rectangle will meet the given criteria.


How do you find the area and perimeter if the figure does not have equal sides?

For the perimeter, you just go round the shape, adding the lengths of each side as you go along. There may or may not be simple formulae of the area for a shape with unequal sides. If all you know is the [different] side lengths then only a triangle has a relatively simple formula for its area. If you also know that some of the sides are parallel, then you can find the area of a rectangle. Then, if you also know the perpendicular distance between the parallel sides, you can do a parallelogram. If, in addition you know which sides are parallel, a trapezium. And so on.


Why does a pentagon have two parallel sides?

A pentagon does not inherently have two parallel sides; it can be classified into various types, including regular and irregular pentagons. In some specific cases, such as a trapezoidal pentagon, two sides can be parallel, but this is not a defining characteristic of all pentagons. The presence of parallel sides depends on the specific shape and arrangement of its angles and sides.


What shape has no parallel lines and no perpendicular lines?

A regular pentagon does not have parallel or perpendicular lines. Some other possibilities include, but are not limited to:a circlean ovalan equilateral triangle or any triangle that is not a right triangle.(A right angle's lines are perpendicular. Those are what make it a 90 degree angle.)

Nope it has to be a shape to have parallel sides and even then some don't

What shape has two opposite sides parallel but not congruent?

A trapezium, and some irregular polygons of 5 or more sides.


Do rectangles have diagonals that are perpendicular?

I think rectangles do not have perpendicular sides. there are some perpendicular sides in a rectangle stupid person

What 2d shape has parallel lines?

Any polygon with four or more sides can have parallel lines. So also can some irregular shapes.

What has four sides and one pair of parallel sides?

A shape that has four sides and one pair of parallel sides is called a trapezoid (or trapezium in some countries). In a trapezoid, the parallel sides are referred to as the bases, while the other two sides can be of different lengths. This geometric figure is a type of quadrilateral, which means it has four sides in total.


What has some parallel sides?

A polygon with 4 or more sides can have a pair of parallel sides.


What 3d shapes have some perpendicular edges but no parallel edges?

Oh, dude, you're hitting me with the geometry questions, huh? So, like, a shape that fits that description would be a triangular prism, because it has perpendicular edges but none that are parallel. It's like the rebel of the 3D shapes, just doing its own thing.
