How many pairs of congruent triangles are formed by the diagonals of a rectangle?
4
It can be formed by cutting a triangle off each of the four corners of a rectangle?
hexagon
A thin wire 20 centimeters long is formed into a rectangle If the width of this rectangle is 4 centimeters what is its length?
6cm. The perimeter of the rectangle has to add to 20. 4+4+6+6=20 Hope this helps ;-)
What kind of triangle are formed if the rectangle is divided diagonally into two?
You would get two right-angled triangles.
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
What figure is formed by joining in order all midpoints on the sides of any quadrilateral?
ANSWER
Quadrilateral formed by connecting the midpoints of consecutive sides?
A parallelogram with sides whose lengths are half the diagonals of the original quadrilateral.
Using coordinate geometry how can you prove that the midpoints of the sides of a rhombus determine a rectangle?
Step 1: Identify the coordinates of the vertices of the rhombus. Step 2: Calculate the coordinates of the midpoints of the sides. x-coordinate of midpoint = average of x-coordinates of the two end points, and similarly the y- coordinate. Step 3: Calculate lengths of sides of the quadrilateral formed (using Pythagoras) Step 4: Use step 3 results to show opposite sides are equal. Step 5: Calculate gradient (slope) of any two adjacent sides, if defined. Step 6: The two gradients multiply to -1 which shows that they are perpendicular. 4 and 6 prove that the quadrilateral is a rectangle. If a side of the quadrilateral is vertical, its gradient (step 5) is not defined, but then the adjacent side will be horizontal. And so the two sides are perpendicular.
What are Baravelle Spirals?
Baravelle spirals are generated by connecting the midpoints of the successive sides of a regular polygon. Triangles will be formed. The process of identifying and repeatedly connecting the midpoints is called iteration.
What quadirlateral is formed by 2 right scalene triangles?
If the triangles are congruent and you match the hypotenera the right way, you can get a rectangle. If the triangles are not congruent, you can't even necessarily get a quadrilateral.
What is a quadrilateral shape?
It is any two-dimensional shape that has 4 sides formed by straight lines. It can be a square, rectangle, rhombus, rhomboid, parallelogram, or trapezoid. Its four included angles will total 360° (for a concave shape, one will exceed 180°).
Which quadrilateral has 4 interior angles and right angles are formed where they intersect?
It is a square or a rectangle in which both have 4 interior right angles and their 4 interior angles add up to 360 degrees
What quadrilateral is formed by two triangles together?
rhombus
What is the name for the angle that is formed by rectangle ADIJ and rectangle ABCD?
Dihedral angle
When a diagonal is drawn inside a quadrilateral two shapes are formed what is the name of the shapes formed?
The name of the shapes formed are triangles.
How is the diagonal in parallelogram formed?
a squished rectangle
What type of quadrilateral is formed when the mid points of trapezium is connected?
A parallelogram.
