Math help @e.mccormick

Answer 1

/wave hey there.

Answer 2

Heya xD

Answer 3

OK, that says it is a parallelogram. So for starters, what does that tell us about it?

Answer 4

It has two parallel sides

Answer 5

Missing a word there. Sets. A trapezoid has two parallel sides. A parallelogram has two sets of parallel sides.

Answer 6

Oh okay

Answer 7

So the top is parallel to the bottm and sides to each other. That means the angles have relationships based on prallel lines.

Answer 8

Remember any rules, like interior or exterior angle rules for parallel lines and a line that intersects them?

Answer 9

I think so

Answer 10

OK. hen lets do a quick diagram and see if you can figure out what they have asked.

Answer 11

/cheer

Answer 12

Awesommeee, and I didnt guess this time!

Answer 13

OK, so only one missing this time.

Answer 14

Hehe. We just talked about this at the evry start of the last problem! So yah.

Answer 15

Lol so I got it correct?

Answer 16

Yep. That was what we were talking about with the two sets of parallel sides. 1) uses the first set and 3) uses the second set.

Answer 17

Well, if it tiles together in there somewhere, all the better. More chances to remember it.

Answer 18

Yes! They bisect each other, so 7.

Answer 19

Hehe. Well, I think you relaxed a bit, and that always helps.

Answer 20

Yep. They are intersecting parallel lines, so each segment is the same measure.

Answer 21

OK, do you know how to go about this one?

Answer 22

Well, start with this. How much are all the angles in a quadrilateral? I mean, like the three angles in a triangle add up to 180. How much do all 4 in a quadrilateral add up to?

Answer 23

Well, lets start with a square. So each angle is 90 degrees. Right? And there are four of them.

Answer 24

Yes. Now, lets see what happens when we make the square a different parallelogram.
