Question

How are the area of a paralellogram and the area of a rectangle related?

Answer 1

what are the areas?

Answer 2

they dont tell me the areas

Answer 3

nvm

Answer 4

oh

Answer 5

A parallelogram is a 4-sided shape where opposites sides are parallel. A rectangle is a special case of a parallelogram. All rectangles are parallelograms

Answer 6

yeah so is that the answer?

Answer 7

But a rectangle is a shape where opposites sides are parallel *and* all the corners are 90 degree angles. So you can't say that all parallelograms would be rectangles. Some parallelograms would be rectangles, but not all.

Answer 8

Sounds about right to me

Answer 9

okay thanks
