Question

which terms describe this shape? choose all that apply.
kite
parallelogram
quadrilateral
rhombus

Explanation:

Analyze the given shape's markings

The shape is a closed four-sided polygon with tick marks on its sides:

• The top side and the left side each have a single tick mark (\(1\)), indicating they are equal in length.
• The bottom side and the right side each have a double tick mark (\(2\)), indicating they are equal in length.
• This means adjacent sides are equal in pairs: top = left, and bottom = right.

Evaluate each term

• quadrilateral: Yes, it has four sides.
• kite: Yes, a kite is a quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of equal adjacent sides.
• parallelogram: No, opposite sides are not equal or parallel (one pair of opposite sides has lengths \(1\) and \(2\)).
• rhombus: No, all four sides are not equal.

Answer:

• kite (Correct answer)
• parallelogram
• quadrilateral (Correct answer)
• rhombus
