To construct a unique rectangle,

Question: To construct a unique rectangle, the minimum number of measurements required is (a) 4 (b) 3 (c) 2 (d) 1 Solution: (c) Since, in a rectangle, opposite sides are equal and parallel, so we need the measurement of only two adjacent sides, i.e. length and breadth. Also, each angle measures 90. Hence, we require only two measurements to construct a unique rectangle....

To construct a unique parallelogram,

Question: To construct a unique parallelogram, the minimum number of measurements required is (a) 2 (b) 3 (c) 4 (d) 5 Solution: (b) We know that, in a parallelogram, opposite sides are equal and parallel. Also, opposite angles are equal. So, to construct a parallelogram uniquely, we require the measure of any two non-parallel sides and the measure of an angle. Hence, the minimum number of measurements required to draw a unique parallelogram is 3....
