• rhombuses

Think about the name of this game. What shape is it played in?

• square

• rectangle

• rhombus

A rhombus is a parallelogram with...

• four congruent angles

• four right angles

• four congruent sides

• two congruent sides

What property makes all squares and rectangles parallelograms?

• opposite sides are parallel

• 4 equal sides

• 4 equal angles

• 4 right angles

Which statement is true?

• All parallelograms have 2 sets of congruent sides, rhombuses are parallelograms, so all rhombuses have 2 sets of congruent sides.

• All parallelograms have 2 sets of congruent angles and rectangles have 4 congruent angles so all parallelograms have 4 congruent angles.

• All parallelograms have 2 sets of parallel sides and parallelograms are quadrilaterals so all quadrilaterals have 2 sets of parallel sides.

Which shapes sometimes have 4 congruent sides?

• square

• rhombus

• quadrilateral

• parallelogram

• rectangle

A rhombus is a quadrilateral, parallelogram, and a kite.

• never

• always

• sometimes

Which shapes always have 4 right angles?

• square

• rectangle

• parallelogram

• quadrilateral

• rhombus

True or False: A four sided figure with four equal sides is always a quadrilateral and a rhombus but not always a rectangle.

• True

• False

Which explanation is correct?

• All squares are rhombuses. Rhombuses have 4 equal sides. Therefore, all squares have 4 equal sides.

• Only some rhombuses are parallelograms. Parallelograms have two pairs of parallel sides. Therefore, only some rhombuses have two pairs of parallel sides.

• All rhombuses are parallelograms. Parallelograms have 2 pairs of parallel sides. Therefore, all rhombuses have 2 pairs of parallel sides.
