a ee te Problem Set 2: More Quadrilaterals (Rev 2016) Now we will explore parallel lines, their intersections with other lines and more ‘quadrilaterals. * Definition: Two lines are parallel if and only if they are in the same plane and do not intersect. * Definition: A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with each pair of opposite sides parallel. 1) Draw an example of a paraliclogram and a quadrilateral that is not a parallelogram, 2) For each of the following sketch an example if possible. If you think it is impossible explain why. a. A parallelogram that is a rectangle. b. A parallelogram that is not a rectangle. c. Arectangle that is a parallelogram. 4. A rectangle that is not a parallelogram. . A parallelogram that is not a rhombus. £ Ashombus that is not a parallelogram. g.A parallelogram that is a rhombus. 1h. A square that is not a parallelogram. iA parallelogram that is not a square. 3) Make a Venn Diagram that shows the relationships among rectangles, squares, rhombi and parallelograms. 4) Are all parallelograms rhombi? Are all rhombi parallelograms? Or are neither of these statements true? Justify your conclusion. 5) Are all parallelograms squares? Are all squares parallelograms? Or are neither of these statements true? Justify your conclusion. 6 Are all parallelograms rectangles? Are all rectangles parallelograms? Or are neither of these statements true? Justify your conclusion. Definition: A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. 7) Using the definition of a trapezoid: Are all parallelograms trapezoids? Are all trapezoids parallelograms? Neither? ‘Explain. 8) Add the trapezoid to your Venn Diagram. — . Lara ponig, Genéebrg MAT 207 Problem Sequence (Rev $2016) (OL pose 790) | e JN {nd star examplen.
