I have to use a 1 parallelogram, 1 square, and 2 small triangles -they are cut out of paper-. I have to make trapezoid out of those. Any ideas
parallelogram 1st. square next. then look at a pic of a trapezoid and you'll figure out where the triangles go. it's fairly simple. You can do it.
To create a trapezoid using a parallelogram, a square, and two small triangles cut out of paper, follow these steps:
1. Take the parallelogram and place it on a flat surface, ensuring that two opposite sides are parallel.
2. Position the square on top of the parallelogram, aligning one side of the square with the base of the parallelogram.
3. Attach the square to the parallelogram by applying glue or tape along the shared side.
4. Place the two small triangles on the remaining sides of the square, aligning the bases of the triangles with the adjacent sides of the parallelogram.
5. Attach the triangles to the square and parallelogram by applying glue or tape along the shared sides.
By following these steps, you will have successfully created a trapezoid using the given paper cutouts.
