A partial drawing of a closed polygon is shown here. To close the polygon two additional sides will be added; one extending at a right angle from vertex A as shown, the other extending from vertex C. If the additional sides and angles are congruent to the original sides and angles, what is the most specific name for this shape? O The figure is a square. O The figure is a quadrilateral. O The figure is a trapezoid. O The figure is a rectangle. Submit Answer C
