If a diagonal is drawn in a parallelogram then two congruent triangles are formed?
True.
The length and width of a rectangle are 8 inches and 4 inches respectively What would be the area of one of the triangles formed from drawing a diagonal in the rectangle?
A=l*w A=8*4 A=32 diagonal cuts the rectangle into two congruent triangles. 32/2 = 16
Is a diamond a rigid shape?
A diamond is not a rigid shape unless it has a brace. A brace is a diagonal line you put inside shapes to make them rigid. Triangles are rigid so if you put a brace in a square to make two triangles the square is now rigid.
What makes a square a square?
1. a square is made up of two triangles because if you draw a square and draw a diagonal line from right to left or left to right in the middle you will see how two triangles make a square.all sides should be of same length and all bond angles should be 90 in a square.
How do you work out the diameter of a rectangle?
The diameter of a rectangle is the same as its diagonal (angle in a semicircle is a right angle). So the diagonal forms a right angled triangle with the diagonal as the hypotenuse and two sides of the rectangle (a length and a breadth) forming the legs of the triangle. If the lengths of the sides of the rectangle are known, a simple application of Pythagoras's theorem given the measure of the diagonal.
