2. Fill in the blanks:
- (i) A quadrilateral with all
sides and all angles equal is a square.
- (ii) A quadrilateral with four
equal sides and no right angles can be called a rhombus.
- (iii) A quadrilateral with
exactly two sides parallel is a trapezium.
- (iv) The diagonals of this
quadrilateral are equal but not perpendicular. The quadrilateral is a rectangle.
3. Determine if the given statements are sometimes,
always, or never true:
- (i) A parallelogram is a
quadrilateral. → Always true
- (ii) A rhombus is a square. → Sometimes
true (only if all angles are 90°)
- (iii) A rectangle is a square. → Sometimes
true (only if all sides are equal)
- (iv) A square is a rectangle. → Always
true
- (v) A parallelogram is a
trapezium. → Sometimes true (only if it has one pair of
parallel sides)
- (vi) A trapezium is a
quadrilateral. → Always true
- (vii) A square is a rhombus. → Always
true
- (viii) Four-sided plane figures
are parallelograms. → Sometimes true (only if both pairs of
opposite sides are parallel)
4. Write 'T' for True or 'F' for False:
- (i) Each angle of a rectangle
is a right angle. → T
- (ii) The opposite sides of a
rectangle are equal in length. → T
- (iii) The diagonals of a square
are perpendicular to one another. → T
- (iv) The diagonals of a rhombus
are of equal length. → F (They are perpendicular but not
necessarily equal unless it's a square)
- (v) All the sides of a rhombus
are of equal length. → T
- (vi) All the sides of a
parallelogram are of equal length. → F (Only opposite sides are
equal)
- (vii) The opposite sides of a
trapezium are parallel. → F (Only one pair of sides is
parallel)
5. Give reasons for the following:
- (i) A square can be thought of
as a special rectangle. Reason: A square has all the properties of
a rectangle (four right angles, opposite sides equal and parallel) and
also has all sides equal.
- (ii) A rectangle can be thought
of as a special parallelogram. Reason: A rectangle has all the
properties of a parallelogram (opposite sides equal and parallel) and also
has all angles equal to 90°.
- (iii) A square can be thought of
as a special rhombus. Reason: A square has all the properties of a
rhombus (all sides equal, opposite sides parallel) and also has all angles
equal to 90°.
- (iv) Squares, rectangles,
parallelograms are all quadrilaterals. Reason: All these shapes
have four sides, making them quadrilaterals.
- (v) Square is also a
parallelogram. Reason: A square has both pairs of opposite sides
parallel and equal, which is a property of parallelograms.
6. Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs):
- A quadrilateral whose
diagonals are equal and bisect each other at right angles is a: (d) Square
- A quadrilateral-shaped
photo-frame has all sides equal. Which of the following is not a possible
shape for the photo-frame? (b) Rectangle (A rectangle does not
necessarily have all sides equal)
- A figure is said to be
regular if its sides are equal in length and angles are equal in measure.
Can you identify the regular quadrilateral? (c) Square
- Which quadrilateral is not a
parallelogram? (b)
Trapezium (A trapezium has only one pair of parallel sides,
while a parallelogram has two pairs)
