Question

Help!!! will give medal :)
Indicate the description to the shape that ALWAYS has the given property:Kite,Trapezoid,Isosceles Trapezoid,Rhombus,Rectangle,Square,Parallelogram
1.Eactly one pair of opposite sides are parallel
2.Exactly one pair of opposite angles is congruent
3.Diagonals are perpendicular
4.Diagonals bisect each other
5.The diagonals are congruent
6.At least one pair of consecutive angels is supplementary
7.Exactly one pair of opposite sides is congruent

Answer 1

This should help - just review the properties of each figure type, you should be able to match them up:

Answer 4

The point of this problem is for you to learn/understand about the differences in these shapes. Everything you need is in that page I linked. If there is something that you don't understand, ask questions; but if you are just tagging people looking for someone to feed you the answer, then you aren't going to learn anything at all.

Answer 5

No im not I did look at the page it didn't give me everything I need if you would like to explain what all this means then be my guess otherwise you don't have to lecture me on my learning

Answer 6

Well, which ones do you have? what do you think the answers are to the ones you have figured out, and which ones are you still unsure about, and have you narrowed them down to 2 or 3 options?

Answer 7

I will "explain" whatever you need to have explained, but you haven't said what part you don't understand.

Answer 8

several (not all) of the answers are found just in this image:

Answer 9

i cnat read that i have no clue what that mean im not good at math
1.trapexoid rhombus rectangle parallelogram
2.kite
3.kite rhobus square
4.rhombus square

Answer 10

Can't read what? The image? The website? i'm not sure what you mean.

OK, let's look at each one:

1.Eactly one pair of opposite sides are parallel

---You said: trapexoid rhombus rectangle parallelogram

First of all, your list includes 2 types of trapezoids: Trapezoid,Isosceles Trapezoid. BOTH have exactly ONE pair of opposite sides parallel. That is stated on the lined page: "A trapezoid has a pair of opposite sides parallel." You can also see it in the image.

"EXACTLY ONE PAIR of opposite sides are parallel" mean that ONLY one pair of opposite sides are parallel - not 2 pairs, but ONLY 1 pair. So that RULED OUT rhombus, rectangle, and parallelogram - they all have TWO PAIRS of opposite sides parallel.

Answer 11

2.Exactly one pair of opposite angles is congruent

--- you said: Kite

Yes, that's correct! Everything else has MORE than one pair of opposite angles congruent, or NO opposite angles that are congruent (e.g., isoceles trapezoid - adjacent angles are congruent, not opposite).

Answer 12

3.Diagonals are perpendicular

You said: kite rhombus square

Good job! Kite and rhombus - this is specifically mentioned on the link as a property of these. And a square is a TYPE OF RHOMBUS, so anything that is true for a rhombus, is true for a square as well.

Answer 13

4.Diagonals bisect each other

You said: rhombus square

Yes, these have diagonals that bisect each other. I think it would also be true for a rectangle, right? since the diagonals would have to cross at the exact center of the height and width, they would bisect each other.

Answer 14

yes that makes sences

Answer 15

5.lsosceles trapezectangle square
6.trapizoide parallelogram
7.lsosceles trapezoid thombus

Answer 16

So now we have:
5.The diagonals are congruent

you said: lsosceles trapez rectangle square

Definitely true for these three. And you can see why it would NOT be true for a general (non-isos trapz), or a kite.

But, what do you think about a parallelogram?

Answer 17

i think yes for the

Answer 18

parallelogram

Answer 19

6.At least one pair of consecutive angels is supplementary

you said: trapizoide parallelogram

Again, I agree with both of those (including both types of trapezoid). But remember that rhombus, rectangle and square are all TYPES of parallelograms - so if you are supposed to list each type separately, then include those also.

7.Exactly one pair of opposite sides is congruent

you said: lsosceles trapezoid thombus

I agree with isos trapezoid. But a rhombus is a type of parallelogram, and for a parallelogram, BOTH sets of opposite sides are congruent. So that is not "exactly one pair" because it is more than one pair. So I think ONLY the isos trapezoid here.

Answer 20

So I think you were able to do most of those on your own, with just a few little clean-ups along the way. :) good job.

Answer 21

Ok thanks so much for your help :)

Answer 22

you're welcome. :)
