new to geometry

u can pick multiple

Answer 1

Quadrilateral since it's a lower level of classification.

Answer 2

I concur

Answer 3

it's definitely not a square because all sides have to be equal..the same for rhombus...

so your choices are rectangle and quadrilateral. a rectangle has two parallel sides and forms 90 degree angles everywhere..that is not a definition of a parallelogram

therefore you're left with only one choice ;)

Answer 4

Here is a hierarchy
Quadrilateral
Parallelogram
Rhombus Rectangle
Square

Answer 5

So a square is not a parallelogram?

Answer 6

a square is a parallelogram but a parallelogram is not a square

Answer 7

Oh ok....I hate trick questions
