Vocaloid (vocaloid):

can you explain why you think it's C?

OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):

C is Correct

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

I wasn't saying you were wrong, I just wanted to make sure you weren't guessing, that's all :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well it isnt a square because its slanted. it isnt b because a rombus looks like a diamond and it isnt d because a trapazoid has 6 sides :)

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

well, your answer is right but your reasoning is wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

really? (ifeeldumbnow)

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

well, a trapezoid only has 4 sides, and a rhombus must have 4 equal sides ("a diamond shape" is not enough justification)

OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides, and the facing sides of a parallelogram are of equal length and the opposite angles of a parallelogram are of equal measure.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4 sides yeah i meant 4 not 6 :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

ahaha, it's not a problem, but it would be good to learn the official definitions :)
