Can anyone please help me with a web quest?

I'm really not sure how to go about doing this. Can you please help explain this to me? Thanks so much! :)





1. Make a table with the following figures down the left-hand column:


Square


Rectangle, but not a square


Rhombus, but not a rectangle


Quadrilateral, general


Parallelogram, not a rectangle or rhombus


Trapezoid, not isosceles


Isosceles trapezoid


Triangle, general


Isosceles triangle, not equilateral


Equilateral triangle


Right triangle, not isosceles


Isosceles right triangle





2. Across the top of your table, make column headings for the following:


Probability of 2 randomly chosen angles being congruent.


Probability of 2 randomly chosen sides being congruent.


Probability of 2 consecutive angles being congruent.


Probability of 2 consecutive sides being congruent.





Write up your findings in a document that contains all of the information you found. Answers should be put in the form of a fraction or percent. If you can create a table to display your information do or just list answers.Can anyone please help me with a web quest?
Square - all sides congruent, all angles congruent





Rectangle, but not a square - two pair sides not consecutive congrunt, all angles congruent





Rhombus, but not a rectangle - all sides congruent, two pair angles not consecutive congruent





Quadrilateral, general - nothing congruent





Parallelogram, not a rectangle or rhombus - two pairs sides non consecutive congruent





Trapezoid, not isosceles - nothing congruent





Isosceles trapezoid - two sides non consecutive congruent, two angles non consecutive congruent





Triangle, general - nothing congruent





Isosceles triangle, not equilateral - two sides consecutive congruent, two angles non consecutive congruent





Equilateral triangle - three sides congruent, three angles congruent





Right triangle, not isosceles - nothing congruent





Isosceles right triangle - two sides consecutive congruent, two angles non consecutive congruent








With those descriptions, you should be able to figure out the probabilties.
