Question

True or False?

A rectangle that is 30 inches long and 10 inches wide can be divided into two congruent trapezoids.

Answer 1

Explanation:

True, because the area would be 300 squared inches, that divided by 3 is 100, and this can make three 10 by 10 squares:)

Answer 2

True as each slope creates a shorter line so each shape would be congruent but only if compasses are used to find the central point.

Explanation:

rectangle slopes which means they are congruent using a point to show equal distance.

You cnanot get congruency from diagonal vertices to vertices with rectangles only midpoints using compass.
