Question

Match the parameters required for constructing unique polygons

• A. 5
• B. 2
• C. 1
• D. 3

Answer 1

Square: We known that in a square, angle at the vertices are equal to 90° and all sides are equal. So if we know the measure of one diagonal we can construct a square.

Rhombus : In a rhombus all sides are equal & diagonals bisect at 90°, so if we know the measure of both diagonals we can construct a rhombus.

Parallelogram: In a parallelogram the opposite sides and opposite angles are equal. So to construct a parallelogram we need the measurements of the two adjacent sides of the parallelogram and the angle between them.

To construct any quadrilateral atleast 5 independent measurements are required.
