MCQ practice · SSC General Mathematics Board questions · Chapter 8: Circle
A parallelogram inscribed in a circle is a:
Think it through first, then pick an option.
- a rhombus
- b rectangle
- c square
- d trapezium
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: b rectangle
Opposite angles are equal and supplementary, so each is 90°: a rectangle.
Why the other options are wrong
- a rhombus: A rhombus has equal opposite angles, but supplementary ones force 90° each; a general rhombus cannot be inscribed.
- c square: A square is a special rectangle; not every inscribed parallelogram is a square, but all are rectangles.
- d trapezium: A trapezium has only one pair of parallel sides; a parallelogram has two.
