Let \(F_1\) be the set of all parallelograms, \(F_2\) the set of all rectangles, \(F_3\) the set of all rhombuses, \(F_4\) the set of all squares and \(F_5\) the set of all trapeziums in a plane. Then \(F_1\) may be equal to

(a) \(F_2\cap F_3\)

(b) \(F_3\cap F_4\)

(c) \(F_2\cup F_3\)

(d) \(F_2\cup F_3\cup F_4\cup F_1\)

Solution

Every rectangle is a parallelogram.

Every rhombus is also a parallelogram.

Every square belongs to both rectangles and rhombuses.

Therefore,

\[ F_2\subseteq F_1,\qquad F_3\subseteq F_1,\qquad F_4\subseteq F_1 \]

Hence,

\[ F_2\cup F_3\cup F_4\cup F_1=F_1 \]

Answer

\[ \boxed{F_2\cup F_3\cup F_4\cup F_1} \]

Correct option: (d)
