Question 555967: The questions asks:
What is the most precise classification of this quadrilateral which has opposite sides with equal slopes and consecutive sides with slopes that are negative reciprocals?
I have tried to graph things that would work and thought of the descriptions of the geometric shapes, but I just can't seem to find one that fits this description.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If opposite sides have equal slopes they are parallel.
That makes your quadrilateral a parallelogram.
If consecutive sides have slopes that are negative reciprocals, that makes them perpendicular.
A parallelogram with right angles is called a rectangle.
