Question

An irregular parallelogram rotates 360° about the midpoint of its diagonal. How many times does the image of the parallelogram coincide with its preimage during the rotation?
A.2
B.4
C.6
D.8

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct options is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The each diagonal of an irregular parallelogram divides the parallelogram in two equal and congruent parts. The diagonal bisects each other.

It means, if a irregular parallelogram rotates 180° about the midpoint of its diagonal, then the image of the parallelogram coincide with its preimage during the rotation.

If a irregular parallelogram rotates 360° about the midpoint of its diagonal, then the image of the parallelogram coincide 2 times with its preimage during the rotation.

Therefore the correct option is A.
