lesson summary
in this lesson, we wrote precise definitions of the three rigid - motion transformations: translation, rotation, and reflection, and explored why the words slide, turn, and flip were not adequate to use as definitions.

1. For "A quadrilateral with four congruent sides"
A rhombus is defined as a quadrilateral with all four sides being congruent (equal in length). Squares are also a type of rhombus (with additional right - angle properties), but the most general term for a quadrilateral with four congruent sides is a rhombus.
A rectangle is a quadrilateral where all four angles are congruent (each is a right angle, measuring \(90^{\circ}\)). A square is a special case of a rectangle (with four congruent sides as well), but the term for a quadrilateral with four congruent angles is a rectangle.
A parallelogram is defined as a quadrilateral in which both pairs of opposite sides are parallel. This is the fundamental definition of a parallelogram, and other quadrilaterals like rectangles, rhombuses, and squares are special cases of parallelograms.
