  1. 6-2C Proofs with Special Parallelograms What happens to the diagonals of parallelograms? What happens to the diagonals of special parallelograms?

  2. Use the terms parallelogram, rhombuses and rectangles to complete the statements. • Parallelograms, rectangles and rhombuses • Parallelograms • Parallelograms • All squares are ____ • All rhombuses are ____ • All rectangles are ____

  3. Parallelogram • Draw a parallelogram on your paper. • Draw diagonals in your parallelogram. • Measure the diagonals. Are the diagonals congruent? • Do the diagonals bisect each other? Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

  4. Rhombus • Draw a rhombus on your paper. • Draw diagonals in your rhombus. • Measure the diagonals. Are the diagonals congruent? • Are the diagonals perpendicular? A parallelogram is a rhombus if and only if its diagonals are perpendicular.

  5. Rectangle • Draw a rectangle on your paper. • Draw diagonals in your rectangle. • Measure the diagonals. Are the diagonals congruent? • Are the diagonals perpendicular? A parallelogram is a rectangle if and only if its diagonals are congruent.

  6. Square • Draw a square on your paper. • Draw diagonals in your square. • Measure the diagonals. Are the diagonals congruent? • Are the diagonals perpendicular? A parallelogram is a square if and only if its diagonals are perpendicular and congruent.

  7. Y V X W Classify quadrilateral VWXYusing the given information. • Parallelogram b. Rhombus c. Rectangle d. Square

  8. Find the value of x and y y 5 5 2x −1= x + 2 x = 3 x + 2 = 5 Diagonals bisect each other in a square. 2x − 1 x + 2 Use Pythagorean Theorem to find y. 52 + 52 = y2 25 + 25 = y2 50 = y2 square

  9. Proof If a parallelogram is a rectangle, then its diagonals are congruent. • Reasons • Given • All rect. are parallelogram • Def of rectangle • Def of rt triangle • Opp sides parallel congru • Reflexive • Leg-leg • CPCTC Statements • DEFG is a rectangle • DEFG is a parallelogram 4. ∆DGF and ∆EFG are rt triangles

  10. Theorems about Diagonals of Special Parallelograms • A parallelogram is a rhombus if and only if its diagonals are perpendicular. • A parallelogram is a rectangle if and only if its diagonals are congruent. • A parallelogram is a square if and only if its diagonals are both perpendicular and congruent.

  11. What happens to the diagonals of parallelograms? They bisect each other. • What happens to the diagonals of special parallelograms? Rhombus—diagonals are perpendicular Rectangle—diagonals are congruent. Square—diagonals are perpendicular and congruent.
