The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of naming the parallelogram where the diagonals are equal and the adjacent sides are unequal, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Properties of Parallelograms A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with opposite sides that are parallel and equal in length. The properties of parallelograms include: - Opposite sides are equal. - Opposite angles are equal. - The diagonals bisect each other. ### Step 2: Identify the Given Conditions We are given two specific conditions: 1. The diagonals are equal. 2. The adjacent sides are unequal. ### Step 3: Analyze the Conditions From the properties of parallelograms: - If the diagonals of a parallelogram are equal, it indicates that the shape is either a rectangle or a rhombus. - However, in a rectangle, all adjacent sides are equal (which contradicts our condition of unequal adjacent sides). - In a rhombus, all sides are equal, which also contradicts the condition of unequal adjacent sides. ### Step 4: Conclusion The only type of parallelogram that meets the condition of having equal diagonals while having unequal adjacent sides is a **rectangle**. ### Final Answer The parallelogram with equal diagonals and unequal adjacent sides is a **rectangle**. ---
