Compare properties of squares and rhombi to properties of other quadrilaterals by answering each question. Write a brief explanation for each answer. (a) Describe a property of squares that is also a property of rectangles. (b) Describe a property of squares that is not a property of rectangles. (c) Describe a property of rhombi that is also a property of parallelograms. (d) Describe a property of rhombi that is not a property of parallelograms.
Lot's of "Describe" in there. Please start describing.
@tkhunny Right, with the first one (A) For properties of squares that is also properties of rectangles, all angles are right angles by definition. All angles are congruent
@tkhunny For B All angles are congruent
1) Don't ever write "All angles are congruent." 2) A square is a rectangle with four congruent sides. All of the angles of the figure are also Right Angles. Very good.
3) You just contradicted yourself. Both squares and rectangles have four congruent angles. 4) Squares also have four congruent sides.
