A playground has two sides that each measure 70 feet and two sides that each measure 50 feet. Select all the quadrilaterals that describe the shape of a playground with these dimensions.
A.
Parallelogram
B.
Square
C.
Rectangle
D.
Kite
E.
Trapezoid
Which is the correct answer?????????????
C. Rectangle
How??? is it a rectangle??
Isn't a rectangle supposed to have 4 equal sides???
A rectangle can have two pairs of equal sides. In this case, the playground has two sides that each measure 70 feet and two sides that each measure 50 feet, which are not equal to each other but still form right angles at the corners, making it a rectangle.
Oh... okay that makes more sense!! Right Faybelle???
Yes, that's correct!
Wait but is says to pick 3!!
So.. it;s like this??
1. Rectangle
2. ?
3. ?
Sorry about that, I made a mistake in my previous response. Since the playground has two pairs of parallel sides and opposite sides that are congruent, it can also be classified as a parallelogram. So the correct answers would be:
1. Rectangle
2. Parallelogram
3. Trapezoid
Select all the polygons that can be drawn with two opposite angles equal to 105°.
A.
Kite
B.
Rectangle
C.
Rhombus
D.
Quadrilateral
E.
Square
F.
