Ans 3:

Aarush Babbar from Birla Vidya Niketan New Delhi, New Delhi
Class : Class 8
all options are true, i think option(c) should be "Triangle is a polygon whose exterior angle is double its interior angle". This way option(c) will be INCORRECT

A rectangle is a type of trapezium only and anyway the diagonals of a square is also equal

Ans 9:

Angshu from Dehli Public School Bangalore East, Bangalore
Class : Class 9
A is correct. By definition, a trapezium has ONLY ONE pair of parallel sides. A rectangle has 2 pairs of parallel sides, hence it is not a trapezium.

Anirudh from 989820Delhi Pubic school Rohini , Delhi
Class : Class 8
D is answer

Ans 11:

Antara Mazumdar from Navy Children School, Mumbai
Class : Class 8

Ans 12:

Pranav Gupta from Ryan International School, Delhi
Class : Class 9
all options can be correct but if we see logically, option (D) states that "if the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal it must be a rectangle" whereas the diagonals of a kite can also be equal.

Ans 13:

Tejas Agarwal from Prudence School , New Delhi
Class : Class 10
The answer is D as Rectangle is also a special type of trapezium so it is correct . Also, the option B is correct. Option C is correct too as interior angle sum of triangle is 180 and the exterior angle sum is double i.e. 360The correct answer would be option D as isosceles trapezium also has its diagonals equal therefore it is the incorrect statement required. Therefore, the answer should be D instead of C

Ans 25:

arnav raj sharma from gulibulium school, new york
Class : Class 8
all options are correct(A) a rectangle follows all the characteristics of a trapizium. It has one pair of parllel sides. it has four sides and sum of all the angles is 360(b) it can be drawn like one angle is 90 and four sides are 40,40,50,50 than it is a rectangle which is quadrilateral(c)It is a law that sum of ext. angles in every polygon is 360 and sum of int. angles in a triangle is 180 which is half of 360(d) all the quadrilaterals that have equal diagonals follow all the rules of a rectangle like square which has two set of equal and parllel sides and its diagonals are equal. A square also has all right angles.

It is B since GH is not perpendicular by the smallest of angles. EF is perpendicular since if you look at the triangles or 5-sided shapes that are made when lines AB and EF come through a square with an angle not equal to 45 degrees, the sizes are the same. This shows that AB and EF are a pair of perpendicular lines.
