Question

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

Explanation:

Step1: Recall shape definitions

A quadrilateral is a four - sided polygon. This shape has 4 sides, so it is a quadrilateral.

Step2: Check for parallel sides

In a parallelogram, opposite sides are parallel. The given shape has opposite sides parallel.

Step3: Check for right angles

A rectangle has four right angles and opposite sides equal. This shape has four right angles and opposite sides equal.

Step4: Check for equal sides

A square has four equal sides and four right angles. This shape does not have four equal sides (sides are 5 and 6), so it is not a square.

Step5: Check for trapezoid criteria

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

Step6: Check for rhombus criteria

A rhombus has four equal sides. This shape does not have four equal sides, so it is not a rhombus.

Answer:

A. Rectangle
B. Parallelogram
E. Quadrilateral
