Question

22 multiple choice 2 points a rectangle has a length of 20 cm and a width of 15 cm. which statement explains why the rectangle is not a rhombus? a rhombus has four sides that are the same length. a rhombus has exactly two sides that are parallel. a rhombus has exactly two right angles. a rhombus has four angles that have equal measures. 23 multiple choice 2 points in circle d, which of the following is an example of a chord? fg de df dg

Explanation:

22

A rhombus is defined as a quadrilateral with four sides of equal length. A rectangle with length \(20\) cm and width \(15\) cm has two pairs of equal - length sides (opposite sides are equal), but not all four sides are equal.

• Option B: A rhombus has two pairs of parallel sides (not exactly two sides parallel).
• Option C: A rhombus has no right - angles (in general, unless it is a square, which is a special case of both a rhombus and a rectangle).
• Option D: A rhombus has two pairs of equal - measure angles (adjacent angles are supplementary), not all four angles equal (unless it is a square).

A chord of a circle is a straight line segment whose endpoints both lie on the circle.

• \(DE\), \(DF\), and \(DG\) are radii (a radius is a line segment from the center of the circle to a point on the circle).
• \(FG\) is a line segment whose endpoints \(F\) and \(G\) lie on the circle.

Answer:

A. A rhombus has four sides that are the same length.
