Question
all parallelograms have two sets of congruent sides. is this true of quadrilaterals?
Step1: Recall parallelogram definition
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two - pairs of parallel sides. By its properties, opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, so it always has two sets of congruent sides.
Step2: Consider general quadrilaterals
A general quadrilateral can have all sides of different lengths (scalene quadrilateral), so it does not always have two sets of congruent sides.
