Proving Parallelograms
- Parallelogram Theorems:
- If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram
- If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram
- If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram
- If one pair of opposite sides of a quadrilateral is both parallel and congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram
- A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if:
- Both pairs of opposite sides are parallel
- Both pairs of opposite sides are congruent
- Both pairs of opposite angles are congruent
- Diagonals bisect each other
- A pair of opposite sides is both parallel and congruent
