9. Obviously Difficult, Secretly Simple.

10. Step #1: Must first show the quadrilateral is a Parallelogram! Use one of the methods for parallelograms! BOTH pairs of opposite sides congruent  parallelogram BOTH pairs of opposite angles congruent  parallelogram A pair of consecutive angles supplementary  parallelogram Diagonals bisect each other  parallelogram Exactly 1 pair of opposite sides congruent and parallel  parallelogram

11. Step #2: Once a parallelogram, then get specific! 3 ways to show a parallelogram is a rhombus!

12. Definition of a Rhombus If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram and all 4 sides are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a rhombus. Quadrilateral  Parallelogram  4 congruent sides  Rhombus

13. Theorem #45 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram and the diagonals are perpendicular, then the quadrilateral is a rhombus. Quadrilateral  Parallelogram  4 congruent sides  Rhombus Quadrilateral  Parallelogram  Diagonals Perpendicular  Rhombus

14. Theorem #46 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram and the diagonals bisect each pair of opposite angles, then the quadrilateral is a rhombus. Quadrilateral  Parallelogram  4 congruent sides  Rhombus Quadrilateral  Parallelogram  Diagonals Perpendicular  Rhombus Quadrilateral  Parallelogram  Diagonals bisect each pair of opposite angles  Rhombus 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2

15. Area of a Rhombus (Method #1) Theorem #53: Area of a Rhombus Area = Base * Height A = b*h h b

18. Properties, Theorems, and Conclusions

19. Definition of a Rectangle A parallelogram with ALL 4 angles congruent (ALL 4 angles are right angles)

20. All Properties of Parallelograms Work! Both pairs of opposite sides parallel 2 pairs of opposite sides congruent ALL 4 angles congruent Pairs of consecutive angles are supplementary Diagonals bisect each other

22. 4 Sides – Quadrilateral Parallelogram 2 pairs of opposite sides parallel 2 pairs of opposite sides congruent ALL angles congruent (ALL angles are right angles) 4 pairs of consecutive angles supplementary Diagonals bisect each other Diagonals Congruent

23. Is it better then a Rhombus?

24. Step #1: Must first show the quadrilateral is a Parallelogram! Use one of the methods for parallelograms! BOTH pairs of opposite sides congruent  parallelogram BOTH pairs of opposite angles congruent  parallelogram A pair of consecutive angles supplementary  parallelogram Diagonals bisect each other  parallelogram Exactly 1 pair of opposite sides congruent and parallel  parallelogram

25. Step #2: Once a parallelogram, then get specific! 2 ways to show a parallelogram is a rectangle!

26. Definition of a Rectangle If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram and has all 4 angles congruent (or all 4 angles are right angles), then the quadrilateral is a rectangle. Quadrilateral  Parallelogram  All 4 angles congruent (all 4 angles are right angles)  Rectangle

27. Theorem # 48 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram and its diagonals are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a rectangle. Quadrilateral  Parallelogram  All 4 angles congruent (all 4 angles are right angles)  Rectangle Quadrilateral  Parallelogram  Diagonals congruent  Rectangle

28. Area of a Rectangle Area = Length * Width or Base * Height A = l * w or b * h l w
