GEOMETRY: Chapter 6 6.3: Show that a Quadrilateral is a Parallelogram
If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Theorem 6.6: Image taken from: Geometry. McDougal Littell: Boston, 2007. P. 522.
Theorem 6.7: If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Image taken from: Geometry. McDougal Littell: Boston, 2007. P. 522.
Ex.1: Image taken from: Geometry. McDougal Littell: Boston, 2007. P. 523.
Ex.1: Answer: MP=NQ and MN=PQ, so MNQP is a parallelogram. Therefore, MP (bar on top) ll NQ. Image taken from: Geometry. McDougal Littell: Boston, 2007. P. 523.
Theorem 6.8: If an angle of a quadrilateral is supplementary to both of its consecutive angles, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
Theorem 6.9: If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Image taken from: Geometry. McDougal Littell: Boston, 2007. P. 523.
Theorem 6.10: If one pair of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent and parallel, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Image taken from: Geometry. McDougal Littell: Boston, 2007. P. 523.
Ex. 2: Suppose you place two straight, narrow strips of paper of equal length on top of two lines of a sheet of notebook paper. If you draw a segment to join their left ends and a segment to join their right ends, will the resulting figure be a parallelogram? Explain.
Ex. 2: Suppose you place two straight, narrow strips of paper of equal length on top of two lines of a sheet of notebook paper. If you draw a segment to join their left ends and a segment to join their right ends, will the resulting figure be a parallelogram? Explain. Answer: Yes, Since AB=CD, you know that AB is congruent to CD. The segments are parallel since the lines on the notebook paper are parallel. So, by Theorem 8.9, ABCD is a Parallelogram.
