Geometry 6-2 Properties of Parallelograms
Definition A quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides is a parallelogram. To write the name of a parallelogram, you use the symbol
Properties of Parallelograms • If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then… • The opposite sides are congruent • The opposite angles are congruent • The consecutive angles are supplementary • The diagonals bisect each other
BC = AD BZ = DZ • AB = DC AZ = CZ • B D BC || AD • A C AB || DC • A + B = 180 • B + C = 180
