Ammy starts from a point A and walks 6 m towards North-East direction and reaches point B. From here, she travels 10 m in East direction and reaches point C. From C, she travels towards South-West direction and reaches point D after travelling a distance equal to AB. At last, she turns towards West direction and reaches point A.
Which geometrical figure has been formed by the path travelled by her?

Solution
AB points north-east and CD points south-west over the same length, so these two sides are equal and parallel. BC runs east and DA runs west, again equal and parallel. A quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides equal and parallel is a parallelogram.
