Answer:

1.Yes, 2 pairs

2.Yes, 2 pairs

3.Yes, 1 pair

4.Yes, 2 pairs

Explanation:

1.Each pair of co-interior angles are supplementary, because two right angles add to a straight angle, so the opposite sides of a rectangle are parallel. This means that a rectangle is a parallelogram, so: Its opposite sides are equal and parallel. Its diagonals bisect each other.

2.A parallelogram is a four sided figure where the opposite sides are parallel.

3.A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one pair of opposite sides parallel. It can have right angles (a right trapezoid), and it can have congruent sides (isosceles), but those are not required.

4.Every rhombus has two diagonals connecting pairs of opposite vertices, and two pairs of parallel sides.
