1 6.2 Properties of Parallelograms
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides parallel. In a quadrilateral, opposite sides do not share a vertex and opposite angles do not share a side.

2 Theorem 6.3 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its opposite sides are congruent.

3 Consecutive Angles Angles of a polygon that share a side are consecutive angles.

4 Theorem 6.4 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its consecutive angles are supplementary.

5 Using Consecutive Angles
What is the measure of angle P in parallelogram PQRS? 26° 64° 116° 126°

6 Theorem 6.5 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its opposite angles are congruent.

7 Theorem 6.6 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its diagonals bisect each other.

8 Using Algebra to Find Lengths
Solve a system of linear equations to find the values of x and y in parallelogram KLMN. What are KM and LN?

9 Using Algebra to Find Lengths

10 Theorem 6.7 If three (or more) parallel lines cut off congruent segments on one transversal, then they cut off congruent segments on every transversal.

11 Using Parallel Lines and Transversals
In the figure, AE || BF || CG || DH, AB = BC = CD = 2, and EF = What is EH? EF = FG = GH EH = EF + FG + GH EH = EH = 6.75
