Question

in this section, youll identify, classify, and analyze shapes by their properties.
youre creating a banner to hang in the back of the taco truck as a backdrop. you place two equilateral triangles together, aligning one side of each triangle. what shape do the two triangles form?
rhombus
square
hexagon
rectangle

Explanation:

An equilateral triangle has all sides equal. When two equilateral triangles are joined by aligning one side, the resulting figure has four sides of equal length. A rhombus is defined as a quadrilateral with all sides equal. A square requires right - angles (90 degrees), which are not present here as the angles of the combined figure are 60 and 120 degrees (angles of an equilateral triangle are 60 degrees). A hexagon has six sides and a rectangle has opposite sides equal and four right - angles.

Answer:

A. Rhombus
