13. Proving a Quadrilateral is a Parallelogram 1.If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are parallel, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram (reverse of the definition). 2.If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram (converse of a property). 3.If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram (converse of a property). 4.If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram (converse of a property). 5.If one pair of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are both parallel and congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Proving a Quadrilateral is a Rectangle First, prove the quadrilateral is a parallelogram and then one of the following: 1.If a parallelogram contains at least one right angle, then it is a rectangle (reverse of the definition). 2.If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent, then the parallelogram is a rectangle. Or, without first proving a parallelogram, prove the following: 1.If all four angles of a quadrilateral are right angles, then it is a rectangle. Proving a Quadrilateral is a Kite Prove one of the following: If two disjoint pairs of consecutive sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, then it is a kite (reverse of the definition). If one of the diagonals of a quadrilateral is the perpendicular bisector of the other diagonal, then the quadrilateral is a kite. Proving a Quadrilateral is a Rhombus First, prove the quadrilateral is a parallelogram and then one of the following: 1.If a parallelogram contains a pair of consecutive sides that are congruent, then it is a rhombus (reverse of the definition). 2.If either diagonal of a parallelogram bisects two angles of the parallelogram, then it is a rhombus. Or, without first proving a parallelogram, prove the following: 1.If the diagonals of a quadrilateral are perpendicular bisectors of each other, then the quadrilateral is a rhombus. Proving a Quadrilateral is a Square If a quadrilateral is both a rectangle and a rhombus, then it is a square (reverse of the definition). Proving a Trapezoid is Isosceles Prove one of the following: 1.If the non-parallel sides of a trapezoid are congruent, then it is isosceles (reverse of the definition). 2.If the lower or the upper base angles of a trapezoid are congruent, then it is isosceles. 3.If the diagonals of a trapezoid are congruent, then it is isosceles.

16. A DC B Parallelogram: If one pair of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are both parallel and congruent, then it is a parallelogram. What is the most descriptive name for this quadrilateral?

17. A DC B Isosceles Trapezoid: By definition a trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel sides; it is isosceles because the legs are congruent. What is the most descriptive name for this quadrilateral?

18. A DC B Rectangle: It is a parallelogram because the diagonals of the quadrilateral bisect each other; furthermore, it is a rectangle because the diagonals are congruent. What is the most descriptive name for this quadrilateral?

19. A DC B Kite: If one of the diagonals of a quadrilateral is the perpendicular bisector of the other diagonal, then the quadrilateral is a kite. What is the most descriptive name for this quadrilateral?

20. A DC B Trapezoid: By definition, a trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel sides. (AD || BC: If two coplanar lines are perpendicular to a third line, DC, then they are parallel.) What is the most descriptive name for this quadrilateral? 8 10

21. A DC B Rectangle: It is a parallelogram because both pairs of opposite angles are congruent. Since it is a parallelogram, consecutive angles are supplementary. By the given information, consecutive angles are congruent. If two angles are both congruent and supplementary, then they are right angles. Finally, it is a rectangle because all angles are right angles. What is the most descriptive name for this quadrilateral?

22. A DC B Rhombus: It is a parallelogram because the diagonals of the quadrilateral bisect each other; furthermore, it is a rhombus because the diagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each other. What is the most descriptive name for this quadrilateral?

23. A DC B Quadrilateral: There is NOT enough information to classify it as anything more specific. What is the most descriptive name for this quadrilateral?
