A circle is entirely enclosed within a parallelogram such that all four sides of the parallelogram are tangent to the circle. What specific type of parallelogram must this be?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

In a parallelogram where all four sides are tangent to a circle, the sums of adjacent sides are equal.

Since opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal, this condition is satisfied only when all four sides are equal.

Therefore, such a parallelogram is a rhombus.
