Study Notes
Interior and Exterior Angles of Polygons
- The sum of the measures of the interior angles of an n-gon is given by the formula ((n-2) \times 180).
- The sum of the measures of exterior angles of a polygon, with one angle at each vertex, is always 360 degrees.
Properties of Parallelograms
- Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent.
- Consecutive angles in a parallelogram are supplementary (sum to 180 degrees).
- Opposite angles in a parallelogram are congruent.
- Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
Testing for Parallelograms
- If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, it is a parallelogram.
- If one angle of a quadrilateral is supplementary to both of its consecutive angles, it will also be a parallelogram.
- If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are congruent, it confirms the shape is a parallelogram.
- If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, it indicates the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
- A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if one pair of opposite sides is both congruent and parallel.
Special Types of Parallelograms
- In a rhombus, diagonals are perpendicular to each other.
- Each diagonal of a rhombus bisects a pair of opposite angles.
- A rectangle has congruent diagonals.
Properties of Rhombuses and Rectangles
- If the diagonals of a parallelogram are perpendicular, it is classified as a rhombus.
- If one diagonal of a parallelogram bisects a pair of opposite angles, it is a rhombus.
- If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent, it confirms the shape is a rectangle.
Properties of Trapezoids and Isosceles Trapezoids
- In an isosceles trapezoid, each pair of base angles is congruent.
- The diagonals of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent.
- For a trapezoid, the midsegment is parallel to the bases and its length equals half the sum of the lengths of the bases.
Properties of Kites
- The diagonals of a kite intersect at right angles (are perpendicular).
