Praxis 5003 Practice Test Practice Question
Quadrilateral ABCD is formed by connecting points A (1,0), B(4,4), C(6,4), and D(3,0) in the coordinate plane. Which of the following statements is true about ABCD?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To determine the properties of quadrilateral ABCD, we analyze its vertices: A(1,0), B(4,4), C(6,4), and D(3,0).
Calculating the slopes reveals that opposite sides AB and CD are parallel, as well as AD and BC, confirming that ABCD is a parallelogram. However, the lengths of adjacent sides differ, indicating it is neither a rectangle (which requires right angles) nor a rhombus (which requires equal side lengths).
Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they misidentify the nature of the angles and side lengths. Thus, ABCD is a parallelogram that is neither a rectangle nor a rhombus.
