Melissa Perez is a 14-year-old girl who loves geometry class with her teacher Ms. Bush. She discusses properties of parallelograms including opposite sides being parallel and congruent. A rectangle is a parallelogram with four right angles and congruent diagonals. A rectangle differs from a rhombus in that a rhombus has four congruent sides while a rectangle only has opposite sides being congruent. A square has the properties of both a rectangle and rhombus as it has four right angles and four congruent sides.

Rectangle

2. Me! 
 My name is Melissa. I’m 14 years old and in the ninth
grade. I’m the only girl. I love pink! I take geometry with
one of my favorite teachers, Ms.Bush. She an amazing
teacher.

3. Properties Of A Parallelogram
 Opposite sides are parallel
 Opposite side are congruent
 One pair of sides are parallel and congruent
 Opposite angels are congruent
 Diagonals bisect each other

4. Rectangle
 All four angels are right angels
 Diagonals are congruent

5. Comparison
 A rectangle and square both are parallelogram. They
both have four right angels.
 A rectangle and a rhombus have nothing in common
expect that they are both parallelogram .A rhombus has
all congruent a rectangles doesn’t

6. Contrast
 A rhombus has four congruent sides a rectangle
doesn’t. A rectangle has opposite sides congruent.
 A square has four right angels and all congruent sides.
A rectangle doesn’t have congruent.

Rhombus

• Diagonals are
perpendicular

8. Coordinate Proof Question
mAT= Zero
mRS= Zero
mAR= Undefined
mTS= Undefined

9. Justification
 In the last slide to prove that quadrilateral ATSR was a
rectangle I found the slopes of the opposite sides. By
finding the opposite sides I checking to see if the
angles were perpendicular. If the slopes were negative
reciprocal then the angels are perpendicular. AT and
RS both equaled zero. AR and ST both equaled
undefined. The slopes were negative reciprocal
therefore it is a rectangle.

11. Conclusion
 In conclusion I learned that a square has the qualities
of a rhombus and rectangle but a rhombus and
rectangle doesn’t have the qualities of a square. I don’t
really like the Photo Story because it repetitive and
boring.
