1 Ch 8.4

2  A rhombus is a parallelogram that has four congruent sides.  That means that the opposite sides must also be parallel.  The diagonals of a rhombus form perpendicular lines.

3  The diagonals bisect the interior angles.

4 AA rectangle is a parallelogram with 4 right angles. TTherefore, opposite sides must also be parallel. TThe diagonals of a rectangle are congruent.

5  A square is a parallelogram with 4 right angles AND 4 congruent sides.  Because a parallelogram has parallel opposite sides, a square has parallel opposite sides.

6  A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with 1 pair of parallel sides.

7  Can any square be a rectangle?  Yes!  Can any rectangle be a square?  No!  Can any square be a rhombus?  Yes!  Can any rectangle be a rhombus?  No!

11 Rhombus 5x + 6 = 8x 6 = 3x 2 = x < Q and < P should be supplementary! 12y – 1 + 97 = 180 12y + 96 = 180 12y = 84 y = 7

12 Square 2x + 1 = 4x - 7 2x + 8 = 4x 8 = 2x < KLN and < NLM should be complementary! 7y + 3 + 45 = 90 7y + 48 = 90 7y = 42 y = 6 4 = x

13 YZ The diagonals bisect the interior angles. A rhombus is a parallelogram that has four congruent sides. That means that the opposite sides must also be parallel. The diagonals of a rhombus form perpendicular lines. 34º 34º 34º 56º 56º 56º 56º 12.5 12.5 12.5 12.5 10.4 SOH CAH TOA! Cos(56) = 7/x 7/Cos(56) = x 12.5 = x
