Question

5:44 sify two-dimensional igures unit test 2. mason claims that he can cut a parallelogram into two right scalene triangles. which diagram best supports his claim? (1 point)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall properties of right scalene triangle

A right scalene triangle has one right - angle and all three sides of different lengths.

Step2: Analyze each diagram

• Blue diagram: The parallelogram is cut into two non - right triangles.
• Green diagram: The parallelogram (rectangle is a type of parallelogram) is cut into two scalene right - triangles. One right - angle is present (as it's a rectangle) and the sides of the triangles (excluding the hypotenuse) are of different lengths (since it's not a square).
• Orange diagram: The parallelogram (square is a type of parallelogram) is cut into two isosceles right - triangles (the two legs of the right - triangle are equal as it's a square).
• Yellow diagram: The parallelogram is cut into two non - right triangles.

Answer:

The green diagram.
