To find: The number of parallelograms.
Answer to Problem 8CE
The total number of parallelogram is 3.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The triangle is shown below:
M , N and T are the midpoints.
Calculation:
Consider in
Angle XMT and XYZ are the corresponding
Consider in triangles NMY and ZXY .
Angle YNM and YZX are the corresponding angles. Hence, line NM and ZX or ZT are parallel to each other.
Thus, MNZT is parallelogram.
Similarly TNXM is also a parallelogram.
Similarly TNMY is also a parallelogram.
Thus, the total number of parallelogram is 3.
