Figure A Figure B Figure B 2 mm 2 mm Figure C Figure C Figure C 4 mm 2 mm 4 mm None of the figures None of the figures Figure C None of the figures 4 mm 2 mm X 5 ?

Answer 1

Squares are figures that have 4 sides and 4 right angles. All 4 sides are the same length.

None of these figures have 4 sides the same length so none of the figures are squares

A parallelogram is a 4 sided figure with opposite sides parallel.

Figure B has 4 right angles so the opposite sides are parallel.

Figure C has opposite sides the same length so the opposite sides are parallel.

Figures B and C are parallelograms.

A rectangle is a 4 sided figure with 4 right angles and opposite sides parallel.

Figure 4 has 4 right angles and the opposite sides parallel.

Figure B is a rectangle
