8-4: Rectangles, Rhombi, and Squares • In 8-2, we learned that in a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other. With these new shapes, we get a couple of new theorems about their diagonals. • Theorem 8-10: The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent. AC = BD
8-4: Rectangles, Rhombi, and Squares • Theorem 8-11: The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular. • AC BD • Theorem 8-12: The diagonals of a rhombus bisect a pair of opposite angles • 1 = 23 = 45 = 67 = 8
8-4: Rectangles, Rhombi, and Squares • Find XZ in square XYZW if YW = 14 • Since a square is also a rectangle, the diagonals of a square (rectangle) are congruent. • XZ = 14 • Find mYOX in square XYZW • Since a square is also a rhombus, the diagonals of a square (rhombus) are perpendicular • mYOX = 90
8-4: Rectangles, Rhombi, and Squares • Your Turn • Name all segments that are congruent to WO in square XYZW • YO, OZ, and OX • Name all angles congruent to XYO in square XYZW • ZYO (diagonals bisect) • YZO, WZO (all vertex angles congruent) • ZWO, XWO • WXO, YXO
