Marcella said that it is possible to draw a trapezoid that is a rectangle, Shandra also said that it is possible to draw a square that is a rectangle.
who is correct? Explain in 2 to 3 sentences using the properties of quadrilaterals.
Marcella is correct. A trapezoid has only one pair of parallel sides, while a rectangle has two pairs of parallel sides. Therefore, it is not possible to have a trapezoid that is also a rectangle. On the other hand, a square is a specific type of rectangle that has all sides equal in length, so it is possible to have a square that is also a rectangle.
