Which statement best describes a similarity between a rhombus and a rectangle? The sum of their interior angles is 360°. They have exactly one pair of sides parallel. The sum of their adjacent angles is 90°. They have all four sides congruent and parallel.

Go through each choice to see if it is true. Is choice A correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So that IS a similarity between a rectangle and a rhombus. Are choices B, C, or D a similarity?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know b and c arent but is d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D is false; A rectangle doesnt have all 4 sides congruent (equal in length). Only a rhombus has all 4 sides congruent. A rectangle has length and width. The 2 lengths are equal and 2 widths are equal, but not all 4 sides are equal in length. So D is NOT a similarity. So whats the final answer for this question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct.
