The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent, so Quadrilateral RSTU is a rectangle. If RT = 6x + 4 and SU = 7x - 4 find x. The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent, so Definition of congruent segments Substitution Subtract 6x from each side. Add 4 to each side. Answer: 8 Example 4-1a

Quadrilateral EFGH is a rectangle Quadrilateral EFGH is a rectangle. If FH = 5x + 4 and GE = 7x – 6, find x. Answer: 5 Example 4-1c

Solve for x and y in the following rectangles A B x 60° 8 Hint: Special Right Triangles x 60° 8 30° D y C A B 2y + 8 x 3x - 8 4y -12 D C 2x Hint: p is perimeter A B P = 36 feet x x D 2x C x Hint: 2 Equations, 2 Variables  Substitution A B 3y 3x -9 D 2y C

Quadrilateral LMNP is a rectangle. Find x. MLP is a right angle, so mMLP = 90° Angle Addition Theorem Substitution Simplify. Subtract 10 from each side. Divide each side by 8. Answer: 10 Example 4-2a

Quadrilateral LMNP is a rectangle. Find y.

Alternate Interior Angles Theorem Since a rectangle is a parallelogram, opposite sides are parallel. So, alternate interior angles are congruent. Alternate Interior Angles Theorem Substitution Simplify. Subtract 2 from each side. Divide each side by 6. Answer: 5 Example 4-2d

Quadrilateral EFGH is a rectangle. a. Find x. b. Find y. Answer: 7 Answer: 11 Example 4-2e

Kyle is building a barn for his horse Kyle is building a barn for his horse. He measures the diagonals of the door opening to make sure that they bisect each other and they are congruent. How does he know that the corners are angles? We know that A parallelogram with congruent diagonals is a rectangle. Therefore, the corners are angles. Answer: Example 4-3a

Quadrilateral Characteristics Summary Convex Quadrilaterals 4 sided polygon 4 interior angles sum to 360 4 exterior angles sum to 360 Parallelograms Trapezoids Bases Parallel Legs are not Parallel Leg angles are supplementary Median is parallel to bases Median = ½ (base + base) Opposite sides parallel and congruent Opposite angles congruent Consecutive angles supplementary Diagonals bisect each other Rectangles Rhombi Isosceles Trapezoids All sides congruent Diagonals perpendicular Diagonals bisect opposite angles Angles all 90° Diagonals congruent Legs are congruent Base angle pairs congruent Diagonals are congruent Squares Diagonals divide into 4 congruent triangles
