Geometry Pre-Test - Properties of Quadrilaterals

Front

What is a parallelogram?

Back

A parallelogram is a four-sided figure (quadrilateral) where opposite sides are parallel and equal in length.

Front

What are the properties of a rhombus?

Back

A rhombus is a type of parallelogram where all four sides are of equal length, opposite angles are equal, and the diagonals bisect each other at right angles.

Front

How do you calculate the angles in a parallelogram?

Back

In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal, and adjacent angles are supplementary (sum to 180 degrees).

Front

What is the relationship between the sides of a rhombus?

Back

In a rhombus, all sides are of equal length.

Front

If one angle of a parallelogram is 58 degrees, what are the measures of the other angles?

Back

The opposite angle is also 58 degrees, and the adjacent angles are each 122 degrees (180 - 58).

Front

What is the formula for the area of a parallelogram?

Back

Area = base × height.

Front

How do you find the length of a diagonal in a rhombus?

Back

The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, and you can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of a diagonal.

Front

What is the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360 degrees.

Front

If two sides of a parallelogram are 10 cm and 12 cm, what can you say about the opposite sides?

Back

The opposite sides will also be 10 cm and 12 cm, respectively.

Front

What is the difference between a rectangle and a rhombus?

Back

A rectangle has opposite sides equal and all angles are 90 degrees, while a rhombus has all sides equal but angles are not necessarily 90 degrees.
