1. The document provides information about properties of parallelograms and examples to practice identifying and using those properties. It defines a parallelogram, lists four key properties, and provides two practice examples asking students to use the properties. 2. Students are assigned homework problems from their textbook on identifying and applying properties of parallelograms. The problems cover identifying parallelograms based on given information, finding missing measures, and proving statements about parallelograms.

1. Opener: Complete these two problems on your opener sheet.
1. The interior angle sum of a convex polygon is 3240 degrees.
What is the name of the polygon?
2. The measure of one exterior angle of a regular polygon is 12
degrees. How many sides does the polygon have?

5. (11/24) & (11/30) 6.2: Properties of Parallelograms
Definition of parallelogram:
A quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides.
Properties of parallelograms:
1.) If parallelogram, then both pairs of opposite
sides are congruent.
2.) If parallelogram, then both pairs of opposite
angles are congruent.
3.) If parallelogram, then consecutive angles are
supplementary.
4.)If parallelogram, then diagonals bisect each
other.
