(a) which figures are rectangles?

figure a figure b figure c none of the figures
(b) which figures are parallelograms?
mark all that apply.
figure a figure b figure c none of the figures
(c) which figures are squares?

figure a figure b figure c none of the figures

Explanation:

(a) Rectangles have 4 right angles and opposite sides equal. Figure B (2×3 mm, right angles) and Figure C (3×3 mm, right angles) meet this definition.
(b) Parallelograms have opposite sides parallel and equal. Figure A (pair of 4mm and 2mm sides), Figure B, and Figure C all satisfy this.
(c) Squares have 4 equal sides and right angles. Only Figure C (all sides 3mm, right angles) meets this.

Answer:

(a) Figure B, Figure C
(b) Figure A, Figure B, Figure C
(c) Figure C
