Question

Which is the best definition of a square? A. a 4-sided polygon with all sides equal B. a parallelogram with all sides equal and all angles equal C. a combination of a rectangle and a trapezoid D. a 4-sided polygon with all angles equal

Answer 1

Hello,

The answer should be option B "a parallelogram with all sides equal and all angles equal".

Reason:

The answer is option B because a square is a parallelogram with all sides and angles equal. Its not option A because a square is not a polygon but does have equal sides. Its also not option C because a square is a rectangle but not a trapezoid therefore not combined. Its also not option D because its not a polygon but does have four sides which saying there not equal therefore not the answer. 

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

I would say B) A parallelogram with all sides equal and all angles equal. Parallelograms aren't all squares. They can be rectangles and rhombuses. I would say B. They all have the same lengths on all sides. They all have the same angles as well. Take a look at the pictures below. They are all parallelograms.  All sides are the same, and all angles are the same.
