efinition: 4. TRUE OR NOT? For each of the following state- ments, if it is True simply write true, or if it is False, write false and draw a counterex- ample (an example showing that the statement is false). (a) TRUE OR NOT? Under an inclusive definition of trapezoid, any parallelogram is also a trapezoid. (b) TRUE OR NOT? Definitions used in math books are always the same in all books and dictio- naries. (c) TRUE OR NOT? Children who think that a square is not a rectangle are wrong.
