Can you draw a parallelogram BATS where BA = 5 cm, AT = 6 cm and AS = 6.5 cm? Why?

Answer

Let us draw a rough sketch of BATS as given.
Here, we cannot locate the points T and B without knowing the measurements ST and SB respectively.
Thus, we cannot draw a parallelogram with the given measurements.
