Which of the following can be used to describe the rectangle blow A all angles are cheats opposite sides are perpendicular opposite sides are parallel All sides are the same length

1 answer

Based on the characteristics you've described for the rectangle, the following statements are applicable:

  1. Opposite sides are parallel: In a rectangle, each pair of opposite sides is parallel to each other.

  2. All angles are right angles (90 degrees): Rectangles have all interior angles measuring 90 degrees.

  3. Opposite sides are equal in length: In a rectangle, opposite sides are not only parallel but also equal in length.

However, the statement "All sides are the same length" does not accurately describe a rectangle. This statement describes a square, which is a specific type of rectangle where all sides are equal.

So, summarizing, the rectangle is described by the following characteristics:

  • Opposite sides are parallel
  • All angles are right angles (90 degrees)
  • Opposite sides are equal in length
