Vocabulary A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides parallel.
Theorem 8.3: If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its opposite sides are congruent.
Theorem 8.4: If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its opposite angles are congruent.
Theorem 8.5: If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its consecutive angles are supplementary.
Theorem 8.6: If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its diagonals bisect each other.
