5
Four Window Foldable Start by folding a blank piece of paper in half lengthwise, and then folding it in half in the opposite direction. Now fold it in half one more time in the same direction.
6
Four Window Foldable Now unfold the paper, and then while holding the paper vertically, fold down the top one-fourth to meet the middle. Do the same with the bottom one- fourth.
7
Four Window Foldable To finish your foldable, cut the two vertical fold lines to create four windows. Outside: Outside: Property 1-4 Inside Flap: Inside Flap: Illustration Inside: Inside: Theorem

Investigation 1 In this lesson, we will find ways to show that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Obviously, if the opposite sides are parallel, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. But could we use other properties besides the definition to see if a shape is a parallelogram?
9
8.3 Show a Quadrilateral is a Parallelogram Objectives: 1.To use properties to identify parallelograms
10
Property 1 We know that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent. What about the converse? If we had a quadrilateral whose opposite sides are congruent, then is it also a parallelogram? Step 1: Draw a quadrilateral with congruent opposite sides.
11
Property 1 Step 2: Draw diagonal AD. Notice this creates two triangles. What kind of triangles are they? by SSS
12
Property 1 Step 3: Since the two triangles are congruent, what must be true about BDA and CAD? by CPCTC
13
Property 1 Step 4: Now consider AD to be a transversal. What must be true about BD and AC? by Converse of Alternate Interior Angles Theorem
14
Property 1 Step 5: By a similar argument, what must be true about AB and CD? by Converse of Alternate Interior Angles Theorem
15
Property 1 If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
16
Property 2 We know that the opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent. What about the converse? If we had a quadrilateral whose opposite angles are congruent, then is it also a parallelogram? Step 1: Draw a quadrilateral with congruent opposite angles.
17
Property 2 Step 2: Now assign the congruent angles variables x and y. What is the sum of all the angles? What is the sum of x and y ?
18
Property 2 Step 3: Consider AB to be a transversal. Since x and y are supplementary, what must be true about BD and AC? by Converse of Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem
19
Property 2 Step 4: By a similar argument, what must be true about AB and CD? by Converse of Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem
20
Property 2 If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
21
Property 3 We know that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. What about the converse? If we had a quadrilateral whose diagonals bisect each other, then is it also a parallelogram? Step 1: Draw a quadrilateral with diagonals that bisect each other.
22
Property 3 Step 2: What kind of angles are BEA and CED? So what must be true about them? by Vertical Angles Congruence Theorem
23
Property 3 Step 3: Now what must be true about AB and CD? by SAS and CPCTC
24
Property 3 Step 4: By a similar argument, what must be true about BD and AC? by SAS and CPCTC
25
Property 3 Step 5: Finally, if the opposite sides of our quadrilateral are congruent, what must be true about our quadrilateral? ABDC is a parallelogram by Property 1
26
Property 3 If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
27
Property 4 The last property is not a converse, and it is not obvious. The question is, if we had a quadrilateral with one pair of sides that are congruent and parallel, then is it also a parallelogram? Step 1: Draw a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel and congruent sides.
28
Property 4 Step 2: Now draw in diagonal AD. Consider AD to be a transversal. What must be true about BDA and CAD? by Alternate Interior Angles Theorem
29
Property 4 Step 3: What must be true about ABD and DCA? What must be true about AB and CD? by SAS and CPCTC
30
Property 4 Step 4: Finally, since the opposite sides of our quadrilateral are congruent, what must be true about our quadrilateral? ABDC is a parallelogram by Property 1
31
Property 4 If one pair of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent and parallel, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
32
Example 1 In quadrilateral WXYZ, m W = 42°, m X = 138°, and m Y = 42°. Find m Z. Is WXYZ a parallelogram? Explain your reasoning.
33
Example 2 For what value of x is the quadrilateral below a parallelogram?
34
Example 3 Determine whether the following quadrilaterals are parallelograms.
35
Example 4 Construct a flowchart to prove that if a quadrilateral has congruent opposite sides, then it is a parallelogram. Given: AB CD BC AD Prove: ABCD is a parallelogram
