Parallelogon

In geometry, a parallelogon is a polygon with parallel opposite sides (hence the name) that can tile a plane by translation (rotation is not permitted). Parallelogons have an even number of sides and opposite sides that are equal in length. A less obvious corollary is that parallelogons can only have either four or six sides; Parallelogons have 180-degree rotational symmetry around the center. A four-sided parallelogon is called a parallelogram. The faces of a parallelohedron (the three dimensional analogue) are called parallelogons. (Wikipedia).

What are parallel lines and a transversal

👉 Learn about converse theorems of parallel lines and a transversal. Two lines are said to be parallel when they have the same slope and are drawn straight to each other such that they cannot meet. In geometry, parallel lines are identified by two arrow heads or two small lines indicated i
