What is a trapezoid?

• A quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides

• A quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides

• A quadrilateral with four congruent sides

• A quadrilateral with no parallel sides

How are trapezoids and parallelograms different?

• Parallelograms have no parallel sides

• Trapezoids have exactly one pair of parallel sides

• Parallelograms have exactly one pair of parallel sides

• Trapezoids have two sets of parallel sides

Is a rhombus always a parallelogram?

Can a parallelogram be sometimes a rectangle?

• Sometimes

• Yes, always

Why does the square intersect with both rhombuses and rectangles in the Venn diagram?

• Because it has no right angles

• Because it has properties of both rhombuses and rectangles

• Because it is neither a rhombus nor a rectangle

• Because it has exactly one pair of parallel sides
