Question

which answers describe the shape below? check all that apply. a. square b. parallelogram c. quadrilateral d. rectangle e. trapezoid f. rhombus

Explanation:

Step1: Recall shape - definitions

A square has all sides equal and all angles 90 degrees. This shape has side - lengths 5 and 9, so it's not a square.

Step2: Check parallelogram criteria

A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides. The given shape has two pairs of parallel sides, so it is a parallelogram.

Step3: Check quadrilateral criteria

A quadrilateral is a four - sided polygon. The given shape has four sides, so it is a quadrilateral.

Step4: Check rectangle criteria

A rectangle has two pairs of equal sides and all angles 90 degrees. There is no indication of right - angles, so we can't say it's a rectangle.

Step5: Check trapezoid criteria

A trapezoid has one pair of parallel sides. This shape has two pairs of parallel sides, so it's not a trapezoid.

Step6: Check rhombus criteria

A rhombus has all sides equal. This shape has side - lengths 5 and 9, so it's not a rhombus.

Answer:

B. Parallelogram
C. Quadrilateral
