3. (05.02 LC) You can draw a quadrilateral with no parallel lines and at least one right angle. (1 point) True or False​

Sagot :

Answer:  True

======================================================

Explanation:

If you have exactly one right angle, then it is possible to have no parallel lines.   See the diagram below. Refer to the upper figure.

If you had exactly 2 right angles, then that would form a trapezoid. A trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel lines.

If you had 4 right angles, then it would form a rectangle. Any rectangle is a parallelogram, so we have 2 pairs of parallel lines by this point.

It's not possible to have a quadrilateral with exactly 3 right angles (and the fourth angle is some non-right angle). This is because all four angles of any quadrilateral must add to 360 degrees.
