Question

The ....... Sides of a rectangle are equal.

Answer 1

Concept:

An enclosed 2-D shape called a rectangle has four sides, four corners, and four right angles (90°). A rectangle has equal and parallel opposite sides. A rectangle has two dimensions—length and width—because it is a two-dimensional form. The rectangle's longer side is its length, while its shorter side is its breadth.

Given:

This is the …. Sides of a rectangle are equal.

Find:

To find suitable words to fill the sentence.

Solution:

The characteristics of a rectangle are as follows:

1. There are 4 corners, 4 angles, and 4 sides (vertices).

2. There are two dimensions to it: length and width.

3. A rectangle has 90° angles on each side.

4. The opposing sides are parallel and equal.

5. It features two equal-length diagonals.

So, from these properties we can say that opposite sides are equal.

Hence, the correct word is opposite to fill suitable sentence.

Answer 2

Answer:

The opposite sides of $a$ rectangle are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangle:-

• A parallelogram in which each angle is of 90° is called a rectangle.
• The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal in length.
• Also, the length of the diagonals are equal.
• A rectangle is a two-dimensional closed figure in a geometry.
• The dimensions of a rectangle are length and breadth.
• A rectangle has no height.

According to the question,

To find:-

Which of the sides of a rectangle are equal?

Using the definition of rectangle,

The length of the opposite sides of $a$ rectangle are equal.

Therefore, the opposite sides of $a$ rectangle are equal.
