Question
Select the true statement.All parallelograms are also rectangles.All rectangles are also parallelograms.
Solution
The true statement is "All rectangles are also parallelograms."
Here's why:
-
A parallelogram is a four-sided figure with opposite sides that are equal in length and parallel.
-
A rectangle is a specific type of parallelogram where all angles are right angles (90 degrees).
-
Therefore, while all rectangles meet the criteria to be considered parallelograms, not all parallelograms meet the criteria to be considered rectangles (since they may not have right angles).
So, the statement "All rectangles are also parallelograms" is true.
