1. Warm Up Given BCDF is a kite BC = 3x + 4y CD = 20 BF = 12 FD = x + 2y Find the PERIMETER OF BCDF Given BCDF is a kite BC = 3x + 4y CD = 20 BF = 12 FD = x + 2y Find the PERIMETER OF BCDF P = 2(12) + 2(20) = 64

2. 5.7 Proving that figures are special quadrilaterals

3. Given: AB || CD <ABC <ADC AB AD Prove:ABCD is a rhombus Given: AB || CD <ABC <ADC AB AD Prove:ABCD is a rhombus B D C A  

4. Proving a Rhombus First prove that it is a parallelogram 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. First prove that it is a parallelogram 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.

5. Proving a rectangle First you must prove that the quadrilateral is a parallelogram and then prove one of the following conditions.

6. 1. If a parallelogram contains at least one right angle, then it is a rectangle (reverse of the definition) Or 2. If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent, then the parallelogram is a rectangle 1. If a parallelogram contains at least one right angle, then it is a rectangle (reverse of the definition) Or 2. If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent, then the parallelogram is a rectangle

7. You can also prove a quadrilateral is a rectangle without first showing that it is a parallelogram if you can prove that all four angles are right angles. If all four angles are right angles, then it is a rectangle. You can also prove a quadrilateral is a rectangle without first showing that it is a parallelogram if you can prove that all four angles are right angles. If all four angles are right angles, then it is a rectangle.

8. Proving a kite 1. If two disjoint pairs of consecutive sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, then it is a kite (reverse of the definition). 2. If one of the diagonals of a quadrilateral is the perpendicular bisector of the other diagonal, then the quadrilateral is a kite. 1. If two disjoint pairs of consecutive sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, then it is a kite (reverse of the definition). 2. If one of the diagonals of a quadrilateral is the perpendicular bisector of the other diagonal, then the quadrilateral is a kite.

9. You can also prove a quadrilateral is a rhombus if the diagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each other, then the quadrilateral is a rhombus.

10. Prove a square If a quadrilateral is both a rectangle and a rhombus, then it is a square (reverse of the definition).

11. Prove an isosceles trapezoid 1. If the nonparallel sides of a trapezoid are congruent, then it is isosceles (reverse of the definition). 2. If the lower or 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. 1. If the nonparallel sides of a trapezoid are congruent, then it is isosceles (reverse of the definition). 2. If the lower or 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.
