3. Quadrilateral – a convex polygon with four sides
Diagonal – a segment joining two non-consecutive
vertices of a polygon.
Parallelogram – a quadrilateral with both pairs of
opposite sides parallel to each other.
Rectangle – a parallelogram with a right angle.

congruent

5. This lesson shall focus on theorems on the
different kinds of parallelograms.
RECTANGLE
RHOMBUS
SQUARE
6. RECTANGLE
Theorem1: if a parallelogram has a right angle, then it
has four right angles and the parallelogram is a
rectangle
Theorem 2: The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent.
RHOMBUS
Theorem 3: In a rhombus, the diagonals are
perpendicular and they bisect each other.
SQUARE
Theorem 4: The diagonals of a square bisect each other,
are congruent and perpendicular
7. Theorem 1. If a parallelogram has a right angle,
then it has four right angles and the parallelogram
is a rectangle
Using the properties of a parallelogram, if ∠A is a right
angle, then ∠B is also a right angle because ∠A and ∠B
are supplementary angles. The same reasoning will
prove that ∠C and ∠D are also right angles.
8. Theorem 2. The diagonals of a rectangle are
congruent.
Given: BEST is a rectangle.
ST = 24, BT = 7, and BS = 25
Find:
a. ES
b. BE
c. ET
d. m∠BES
9. Example 3:
Given: PICK is a rectangle.
a. What kind of triangle is KOC? Why?
b. What kind of triangle is PIC? Why?
c. If PO + OI = 50, what is the measure of
PC?
d. Name all pairs of congruent segments in
rectangle PICK.
10. Example 4:
Given: CORE is a rhombus
a. Is CL = RL? Is EL = OL?
b. Which triangles in CORE are congruent?
Why are they congruent?
12. Example 6:
Given: ABCD is a rhombus.
Find the measures of the numbered angles in
the figure.
13. Theorem 4. The diagonals of a square bisect each
other, are congruent, and perpendicular
