|dw:1355269423584:dw| It's usually enough to simply do this. Arrows only make it more confusing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok. so ditch the arrows got it.

hero (hero):

We have another parallelogram again I see.

hero (hero):

And since all sides are equal, we have a special kind of parallelogram better known as a rhombus.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now. I had missed a question about whether or not something was a rhombus or a parallelogram whats the difference?

hero (hero):

There are different categories of quadrilaterals. A quadrilateral is any four sided figure. Types of quadrilaterals include unsymmetric four sided polygons, square, rectangle, rhombus, and parallelograms. Now parallelograms are a specific class of quadrilaterals where opposite sides are equal and parallel to each other. Squares, rectangles, and rhombii or rhombus fit in this particular classification of quadrilaterals.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we have classified this as a rhombus. so how do I find x and y with only one number..?
