shapes hierarchy
read the passage and answer the following question(s).
this diagram shows the relationships between 7 four - sided figures. each figure has all of the properties of any other figure or figures it is drawn inside of.

1. why is the figure 7 outside of the figure 2?

a figure 7 has two angles with the same measure.
b. figure 7 has a height that is larger than its width.
c. figure 7 does not have the same dimensions as the other figures.
d. figure 7 has only one pair of parallel sides.
read the passage - shapes hierarchy - and answer the question below:

1. which statement explains why the rhombus is not inside the rectangle?

a. the opposite sides of a rhombus are parallel.
b. the opposite sides of a rhombus are equal in length.
c. the angles of a rhombus do not all need to have the same measure.
d. the sides of a rhombus do not all need to have the same length.

Explanation:

1. In the hierarchy of four - sided figures, figure 2 likely represents a parallelogram (or a more general category of quadrilaterals with two pairs of parallel sides). A trapezoid (figure 7) has only one pair of parallel sides and thus does not fit the properties of the figures inside figure 2.
2. A rectangle has four right - angles. A rhombus has equal - length sides but its angles do not all need to be right - angles (or the same measure). So, a rhombus does not have all the properties of a rectangle.

Answer:

1. D. Figure 7 has only one pair of parallel sides.
2. C. The angles of a rhombus do not all need to have the same measure.
