Question

Simon draws a rectangle with two sides that are 2 inches long and two sides that are 3 inches long. Chaz draws a figure with the same measurements, but it it not a rectangle. What figure could it be?

Answer 1

Parallelogram because two opposite sides are equal while the other two parallel sides are equal in length. 

Answer 2

Answer:    Parallelogram

Explanation:  The rectangle has two opposite sides of the same length and which are parallel to each other, and also two opposite parallel sides of the same length, but do not have the same length as the previous two sides. In the rectangle, the angle between any two sides is 90°. What Chaz drew was a parallelogram, since he took the same measures, that is, the same length of sides, only that with the parallelograms the angle between the sides was not 90°. In the parallelogram, the two opposite angles are less than 90°, the other two opposite angles are greater than 90°.
