Which statement is true? A. All squares are rectangles. B. All quadrilaterals are rectangles. C. All parallelograms are rectangles. D. All rectangles are squares.

OpenStudy (oaktree):

So let's take this piece by piece. What do you know about quadrilaterals?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A

OpenStudy (oaktree):

@Omistone, try to refrain from just giving the answer please.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we can eliminate D because it is obviously untrue

OpenStudy (oaktree):

@cmenendez55, are you here?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a quadrilateral is any shape with 4 sides, a rectangle specifically has to have even sides (2L+2W)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah lol sorry i was looking something up

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a parallelogram can be like a rectangle, but on a slant/angle, so its hasn't got even angles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well i put on my hw i put d so how is it a if its just reversed?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

umm, im not quite sure what your trying to say there, but technically a square meats all the requirements or a rectangle and not vice versa

OpenStudy (anonymous):

of* not or sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok you know A says all squares are rectangles well i put D that says all rectangles are squares

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and i got it wrong
