Question 3 - Page 197 Is it possible to construct a 4-sided figure in which— • all the angles are equal to 90° but • opposite sides are not equal?This is not possible We have two possible scenarios If all angles are 90°, opposite sides are equal If we make opposite sides not equal, all angles are not equal to 90° Let’s do a visualstion If all angles are 90°, opposite sides are equal Can a 4-Sided Figure Have Angles... ...but unequal opposite sides? Let's test it. We'll fix Angle A and Angle D at . Use the sliders to change the Top Side and Bottom Side lengths. Top Side (AB) 250 Bottom Side (DC) 250 Angle A Angle B Angle C Angle D If we make opposite sides not equal, all angles are not equal to 90°
