Help Please Will Give Medal! Which Venn diagram is NOT correct?
Hold on im getting the graphs :)
Do you understand what makes a Venn diagram correct or incorrect?
The outer circle contains the more general term. The inner circle contains the more specific term.
I'll tell you right away the first diagram is correct. I'll use it to explain it to you.

Once again, this Venn diagram is correct.
What this Venn diagram shows is that out of all parallelograms (contained in the larger circle) only some are also rhombuses (contained in the smaller circle).
You can think of it this way. Every rhombus is inside the rhombus circle and inside the parallelogram circle. That means every rhombus is also a parallelogram. Every parallelogram is not necessarily a rhombus.
Now you need to go through each Venn diagram and ask yourself: Is every [thing in inner circle} also a [thing in outer circle]? If the answer is yes, the Venn diagram is true. If the answer is no, the Venn diagram is false.
Let's do the first one: Is every [thing in inner circle} also a [thing in outer circle]? First Venn diagram has rhombus & parallelogram. Is every RHOMBUS also a PARALLELOGRAM? Answer is yes, so the first Venn diagram is true.
ok
Now you do the same to the other 3. One question will have an answer of no. That's the one that has a false Venn diagram.
the 2 one is correct
wait sorry not the second one
the 3 and 4th one are correct

B. Is every kite a quadrilateral? Yes. B is correct.
C. Is every square a rhombus? Yes. C is correct.
D. Is every rectangle a square? |dw:1399327138499:dw|
Haha no :P
That means this is the Venn diagram that is incorrect. For it to be correct, it would have to be: |dw:1399327248427:dw|
Since it's the opposite, it's incorrect.
OK thank you! :)
could you help me with something else?
No, sorry, gtg. If I'm on some other time, I'll try to help. Also if you tag me, I'll try to help and you can see my answer when you get back.
