Question
- choose all answers that describe the polygon j k l m if j k = l m, k l = m j, m ∠ j = 90 ^ { circ }, m ∠ k = 90 ^ { circ }, m ∠ l = 90 ^ { circ }, and m ∠ m = 90 ^ { circ }.
□ parallelogram □ quadrilateral □ rectangle
□ rhombus □ square
Step1: Analyze the properties of a quadrilateral
A quadrilateral is a four - sided polygon. Since \(JKLM\) has four sides, it is a quadrilateral.
Step2: Analyze the properties of a parallelogram
In a parallelogram, opposite sides are equal. Here \(JK = LM\) and \(KL = MJ\), so it satisfies the property of a parallelogram.
Step3: Analyze the properties of a rectangle
A rectangle is a parallelogram with all angles equal to \(90^{\circ}\). Since \(m\angle J=m\angle K = m\angle L=m\angle M = 90^{\circ}\), it is a rectangle.
Step4: Analyze the properties of a square
A square is a rectangle with all sides equal. Given \(JK = LM\), \(KL = MJ\) and all angles \(90^{\circ}\), if \(JK = KL\) (implied by the equal - side relationships in the given problem structure as \(JK = LM\), \(KL = MJ\) and in a parallelogram \(JK\parallel LM\), \(KL\parallel MJ\)), then it is a square.
Step5: Analyze the properties of a rhombus
A rhombus is a parallelogram with all sides equal. Since \(JK = LM\), \(KL = MJ\) and in a parallelogram \(JK\parallel LM\), \(KL\parallel MJ\), if all sides are equal (which is consistent with the given equal - side conditions when considering the relationships in a parallelogram), and with right angles (a rhombus with right angles is a square, and a square is a special case of a rhombus).
