What are trapezoids?
A trapezium (as it is known in English) is a quadrilateral which is a closed plane figure with four straight sides. It has one pair of parallel sides. The other pair of sides is not parallel (otherwise the figure would become a parallelogram).
How many parallel sides does a parallelogram have?
in geometry i learned a parallelogram has only 2 pairs of parallel sides each pair of opposite sides is parallel
Does a parallelogram have 1 pair of parallel lines?
A parallelogram is a 4 sided figure that has 2 pairs of sides. Some examples would be a rectangle or a square.
A quadrilateral with both pair of opposite sides parallel is called a what?
parallelogram
A parallelogram with one pair of parallel sides is a?
There is no such thing as a parallelogram with only one set of parallel sides.No. Both opposite sides are parallel. They are also congruent
What is a figure that is not a parallelogram but has one pair of parallel sides?
Trapezoid
A figure that Is not parallelogram with one pair of parallel sides?
trapizoid
What is a figure that is not a parallelogram with one pair of parallel sides?
an octogon
Is a trapezium a parallelogram?
No. A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides. The trapezium has only one pair of parallel sides. (This applies the definition of a trapezium as a 4-sided figure with exactlytwo parallel sides.)
Is an octagon a figure that is not a parallelogram with one pair of parallel sides?
A parallogram has two pairs of parallel sides. A trapezoid has one pair of parallel sides. A regular octagon has four pairs of parallel sides. An irregular octagon may have from 3 pair to no pair of parallel sides.
What are trapezoids?
A trapezium (as it is known in English) is a quadrilateral which is a closed plane figure with four straight sides. It has one pair of parallel sides. The other pair of sides is not parallel (otherwise the figure would become a parallelogram).
Is a trapezoid sometimes always or never a parallelogram?
A trapezoid is never a parallelogram. The definition of a parallelogram is a four sided figure with 2 pairs of parallel sides and a trapezoid only has 1 pair of parallel sides.
What figure has opposite sides that are parallel?
Parallelogram, Rectangle, Square, Kite, Rhombus, Trapezium(only 1 pair of opposite sides is parallel).
What is a quadrilateral with a pair of parallel sides?
One pair? If it is one pair of parallel sides, then it is a trapezoid. If it has 2 pairs of parallel sides, then it is a parallelogram.
How many parallel sides does a parallelogram have?
in geometry i learned a parallelogram has only 2 pairs of parallel sides each pair of opposite sides is parallel
When can a trapezoid be a parallelogram?
It cannot. A trapezium is a quadrilateral that has one pair of parallel but unequal sides and another pair of non-parallel sides. A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel and equal sides.
Where did a parallelogram get its name?
A parallelogram is a 2-dimensional figure with four sides. Each pair of opposite sides is parallel.The root "gram" is a reference to something marked or written, a figure.The root "parallel" is a reference to parallel lines.So a parallelogram is a figure in which parallelism is a prominent characteristic.
