Does a rectangle have two pairs of congruent triangles?

A rectangle has two pairs of congruent (meaning identical) sides.If, however, you drew two lines diagonally from corner to corner, you would have two pairs of congruent triangles within the rectangle.


Can all 4 sided shape be made by two right angled triangles?

Absolutely. Any two congruent right triangles will form a rectangle, and if the right triangles are isosceles right triangles, they will form a square.


Name the type of special quadrilateral that will appear when you join two congruent scalene right triangles?

Two scalene right triangles that are congruent, that is, that have identical size and shape, if joined together to form a quadrilateral, will form a rectangle.


How do you decompose a rectangle into congruent triangles?

Its diagonals divides it into two equal right angle triangles.


What shapes can you make out of two congruent right-angled triangles?

What is c.p.c.t?

Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles is the full form od CPCT.


Draw two triangles with a common hypotenuse do the legs form a rectangle?

Not always. You could form a kite. That means that the two adjacent sides would be congruent, not the two opposite sides.


Prove that the diagonals of rectangle are equal?

prove any two adjacent triangles as congruent


Are the sides of a triangle prism all congruent?

No. Because two are triangles and three are rectangles. A triangle cannot be congruent to a rectangle!


Are the diagonals of a rectangle congruent always?

Yes. You can show this by SAS of two right triangles. Consider rectangle ABCD. AD and BC are the same length and AC and BD are the same length because opposite sides are congruent. The angles ADC and BCD are congruent since it is a rectangle and the angles are right angles. So the triangles ADC and BCD are congruent and their hypotenuses (the diagonals of the rectangles) are congruent.


What postulate or theorem verifies the congruence of triangles?

sssThere are five methods for proving the congruence of triangles. In SSS, you prove that all three sides of two triangles are congruent to each other. In SAS, if two sides of the triangles and the angle between them are congruent, then the triangles are congruent. In ASA, if two angles of the triangles and the side between them are congruent, then the triangles are congruent. In AAS, if two angles and one of the non-included sides of two triangles are congruent, then the triangles are congruent. In HL, which only applies to right triangles, if the hypotenuse and one leg of the two triangles are congruent, then the triangles are congruent.
