Question

The figure is a parallelogram. One diagonal measures 28 units.

Answer 1

Answer:

It is not a rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a shape with 4 sides, such that we have two pairs of parallel sides, where the length of the parallel sides is equal.

so we have two parallel sides with length L and two parallel sides with length L'.

In this figure ,we can see two sides with length 20 and other two with length 21, and this is a rectangle only if the sides meet at 90°degree angles (this would mean that the opposite sides are parallel)

To see this, we can think that the triangle formed by the diagonal and two sides is a triangle rectangle, then using the Pythagorean theorem we should have that:

20^2 + 21^2 = 28^2

841 = 784

So this is not a triangle rectangle, meaning that the angle between the side of 20 and the side of 21 is not a right triangle, then the figure is not a rectangle.

Therefore, it is not a rectangle
