Exploring Properties of Rhombuses, Rectangles, and Squares

What defines a rhombus among parallelograms?

• All sides are congruent

• All angles are congruent

• Diagonals are congruent

• Only opposite sides are parallel

What happens to the angles when diagonals in a rhombus intersect?

• They form acute angles

• They form right angles

• They form obtuse angles

• No significant change

In a rectangle, what is true about the diagonals?

• They are perpendicular

• They are not congruent

• They are congruent

• They bisect the angles into acute angles

What is the measure of angle XWY in the rectangle if angle XVW is 62 degrees?

• 62 degrees

• 90 degrees

• 28 degrees

• 152 degrees

What type of triangle is formed by the diagonals in a rectangle?

• Equilateral

• Right

• Isosceles

• Scalene

What is unique about the sides and angles of a square?

• All angles are congruent, but sides are not

• Both sides and angles are congruent

• Neither sides nor angles are congruent

• All sides are congruent, but angles are not

What is the measure of angle QRT in a square?

• 90 degrees

• 360 degrees

• 180 degrees

• 45 degrees

How do you calculate the hypotenuse in a 45-45-90 triangle if one leg is 15?

• 15 * 2

• 15 / sqrt(2)

• 15 * sqrt(2)

• 15 + 15

What property do the diagonals of a square exhibit?

• Only congruency

• Congruency and perpendicularity

• Only perpendicularity

• Neither congruency nor perpendicularity

In a square, if the length from one vertex to the midpoint of a diagonal is 15, what is the length of the diagonal?

• 15

• 30

• 15 * sqrt(2)

• 30 * sqrt(2)
