Question

Diagonals of which of the following quadrilaterals do not bisect it into two congruent triangles?
(a) rhombus (b) trapezium (c) square (d) rectangle.

Answer 1

Diagonals of (b) trapezium do not bisect it into two congruent triangles

• A rhombus is a type of parallelogram in which all the sides are equal, opposite sides are parallel and opposite angles are also equal.
• A trapezium is a quadrilateral in which just one pair of opposite sides are parallel.
• A square is a quadrilateral in which all four sides are equal and all the angles are equal to 90 degrees.
• A rectangle is a quadrilateral in which the opposite sides are equal and all the four angles are equal to 90 degrees.
• In trapezium, the diagonals do not bisect the shape into two congruent triangles.
