A parallelogram is a four sided shape where each of the two opposite sides are parallel. A consequence of this is that opposite sides are equal in length, and opposite angles are also equal.

Is a rectangle a parallelogram Why?
yes, a rectangle is a parallelogram. A parallelogram is a polygon (closed shape with straight sides) that has exactly 2 pairs of parallel sides. A rectangle is a parallelogram with 4 right angles(90o). "Rectangle" is more specific. So all rectangles are parallelogram but not all parallelograms are rectangles.
How do you calculate the diagonal of the parallelogram?
If you know the answer please tell me.
What are all the names you can use rectangle?
parallelogram hope i help you :) Well, I think it is a parallelogram, square, rhombus. That is all I know :P
If you know the lenghts of two opposite sides of a parallelogram can I find the perimeter?
no
Can you give me a picture of a parallelogram?
I dont know how to draw it on here but one parallelogram is a square
Is parallelogram also a rhombus?
A rhombus is a parallelogram, but something that is a parallelogram isn't necessarily a rhombus.
How do you find the point of intersection of a parallelogram?
It would help to know "... the point of intersection of a parallelogram" and what!
How can you find the area of a parallelogram if you only know the side lengths?
The area of a parallelogram is equal to base times height. You can find the maximum area of a parallelogram by multiplying the length of a short side by the length of a long side. (This would be the area if the parallelogram were a rectangle.)You cannot know the area of a parallelogram if all you know is the length of the sides; you can only know the maximumpossible area. Imagine you slant the parallelogram a lot. The area will decrease, but the side lengths will stay the same.
Can A parallelogram is a rectangle?
you wrote "Can A parallelogram is a rectangle?" which does not make sense. have you made a mistake and not realised or is English your second language or something.
Are all parallelogram rhombi?
Yes, all rhombi are parallelograms. If you understand the concept "parallelogram" then you will know that rhombi
What is a parallelogram similar to?
I don't exactly know because the question on my math homework is How are a parallelogram and a trapizoid similar and how are they alike? So I really don't know. Sorry!
What is a long parallelogram?
It is important to know the different parallelograms. A long parallelogram is a parallelograms whose sides are long in length.
Is a rectangle a parallelogram Why?
yes, a rectangle is a parallelogram. A parallelogram is a polygon (closed shape with straight sides) that has exactly 2 pairs of parallel sides. A rectangle is a parallelogram with 4 right angles(90o). "Rectangle" is more specific. So all rectangles are parallelogram but not all parallelograms are rectangles.
How do you calculate the diagonal of the parallelogram?
If you know the answer please tell me.
If two parallelograms are similar what do you know about the ratios of the two side lengths within one parallelograms and the ratios of the correspondingside lengths in the other parallelogram?
If and when two parallelograms are similar, you know that the ratio of two side lengths within one parallelogram will describe the relationship between the corresponding side lengths in a similar parallelogram. If and when two parallelograms are similar, you know that the ratio of corresponding side lengths in the other parallelogram will give you the scale factor that relates each side length in one parallelogram to the corresponding side length in a similar parallelogram.
Is th paralleloram a rhombus or a Rectangle?
I hope you know the definition of the parallelogram. i.e.,In geometry, a parallelogram is a quadrilateralwith two sets of parallel sides.so naturally rhombus and rectangle are special case of parallelogram. That means every rhombus is parallelogram similarly every rectangle is a parallelogram. But converse need not be true.So parallelogram not necessarily a rhombus or a rectangle.GMG.
