Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

49% Answer Correctly

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides

the area of a parallelogram is base x height


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


2

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

74% Answer Correctly

right, obtuse, acute

acute, right, obtuse

right, acute, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


3

If BD = 17 and AD = 20, AB = ?

75% Answer Correctly
17
3
18
5

Solution

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

Solving for AB:

AB = AD - BD
AB = 20 - 17
AB = 3


4

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

trapezoid

triangle

quadrilateral

rhombus


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.


5

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary

obtuse, acute

supplementary, vertical


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).
