Proving Quadrilaterals are //ograms.Methods 1-3 • If opposite sides of a quadrilateral are //, then it is a //ogram. (definition) • If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are , then it is a //ogram. • If both pairs of opposite angles are , then it is a //ogram.
Proving Quadrilaterals are //ograms.Methods 4-6 Additional Test for a //ogram • If an angle of a quadrilateral is supplementary to both of its consecutive angles, then it is a //ogram. • If the diagonals bisect each other, then it is a parallelogram. • If one pair of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are // and , then it is a parallelogram.

Is this a Parallelogram? Why? Yes. Opposite Angles are Congruent.
Is this a Parallelogram? Why? No, not enough information.
Is this a Parallelogram? Why? Yes. Opposite Sides are Parallel (definition).
Is this a Parallelogram? Why? Yes. One pair of opposite sides are parallel and congruent.
Is this a Parallelogram? Why? 120o 60o 120o Yes. An angle is supplementary to both of its consecutive angles.
Is this a Parallelogram? Why? No, not enough information.
Is this a Parallelogram? Why? Yes. Opposite Sides are Congruent.
Is this a Parallelogram? Why? 120o 60o No, not enough information.
Is this a Parallelogram? Why? Yes. Diagonals bisect each other.
Is this a Parallelogram? Why? No, not enough information.
Is this a Parallelogram? Why? A B ABC CDA D C Yes, Opposite sides are congruent. Others can be proven as well.
Reminders: Coordinate Proofs • Midpoint Formula • Slope// lines have equal slope Distance Formula
Prove this is a Parallelogram • Slope & Distance • Prove AB = CD and AB // CD • Use Distance Formula to show that their lengths are equal and use slope formula to show that their slopes are equal. • Midpoint Method • Prove the diagonals bisect each other • Show that the diagonals have the same midpoint. Slope Method • Prove AB//CD and BC//AD • Use slope formula and show that their slopes are equal. Distance Method • Prove AB = CD and BC = AD • Use Distance Formula to show that their lengths are equal.
Proof:Since ΔXVYΔZVW and ΔXVWΔZVY, by CPCTC. By which method would you prove WXYZ is a parallelogram? A. Both pairs of opp. sides . B. Both pairs of opp. ’s . C. One pair of opp. sides both and ||. D. Diagonals bisect each other
Properties of Parallelograms Determine whether the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Justify your answer. Answer: Each pair of opposite sides has the same measure. Therefore, they are congruent. If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
Which method would prove the quadrilateral is a parallelogram? A. Both pairs of opp. sides ||. B. Both pairs of opp. sides . C. Both pairs of opp. ’s . D. One pair of opp. sides both || and .
Find x so that the quadrilateral is a //ogram. Opposite sides of a //ogram are congruent.
Find m so that the quadrilateral is a //ogram. A.m = 2 B.m = 3 C.m = 6 D.m = 8
Use Slope and Distance COORDINATE GEOMETRYDetermine whether the figure with vertices A(–3, 0), B(–1, 3), C(3, 2), and D(1, –1) is a parallelogram. Use the Slope Formula.
= slopes // Lines Opp. Sides are // //ogram
Determine whether the figure with the given vertices is a parallelogram. Use the method indicated. A(–1, –2), B(–3, 1), C(1, 2), D(3, –1); Slope Formula A. yes B. no C. cannot be determined • A • B • C
