Answer 1

Millie is using a software program that allows her to change the shape of a two-dimensional figure by making changes to the angles at vertices. She starts with a quadrilateral with all four angles congruent. She moves the vertices to make two pairs of congruent angles.

Which statement best describes the figure that she created?

She changed a rectangle to parallelogram.
She changed a rhombus to a parallelogram.
She changed a rhombus to a kite.
She changed a rectangle to a trapezoid.

Answer 3

Let's break down what's going on here

Answer 4

"She starts with a quadrilateral with all four angles congruent." means she starts with a rectangle

Answer 5

since all rectangles have 4 congruent angles

Answer 6

then "She moves the vertices to make two pairs of congruent angles. " so she basically pairs off the opposite angles and makes each pair equal to one another (but NOT all four are equal -- eg: she might have a quadrilateral with angles of 60, 60, 40 and 40)


If you draw this out, you'll see that you'll get a parallelogram

Answer 7

So "She changed a rectangle to parallelogram."

Answer 8
