Question

Which statement best describes the angles of a rectangle ?

A) Each angle is 90 degrees
B) The two base angles are different angle measures
C) The sum of all the angles add up to 180 degrees
D) Each angle has a different measure

Answer 1

Answer: A

Explanation:

We use process of elimination.

A rectangle has all right angles so A is a possibility.

The two base angles of a rectangle are NOT different angle measures so B is out of the question.

The sum of all the angles (90+90+90+90) is 360, not 180, so C is wrong.

All the angles of a rectangle are the same, so D is incorrect.

That means that A has to be correct!
