Study Notes
Rectangle Theorems
- Rectangles have congruent diagonals. This means their diagonals are equal in length.
- This is helpful to calculate diagonal lengths and confirm rectangle characteristics.
Rhombus Theorems
- Rhombus diagonals intersect at right angles (90°).
- Rhombus diagonals bisect each other.
- Each diagonal of a rhombus bisects two opposite angles.
- Useful for calculating angles, lengths & confirming rhombus properties.
Isosceles Trapezoid Theorems
- Isosceles trapezoids have congruent base angles.
- If a trapezoid's base angles are congruent, it's an isosceles trapezoid.
- Isosceles trapezoids have congruent diagonals.
- If a trapezoid's diagonals are congruent, it's an isosceles trapezoid.
- This helps determine angle and diagonal relationships.
Triangle Theorems
- A triangle's midsegment is parallel to the base and half its length.
- This is useful in calculating lengths and confirming triangle relationships.
Trapezoid Theorems
- The median of a trapezoid is parallel to its bases and equals half their sum.
- This aids in calculating median lengths.
Kite Theorems
- Kites have perpendicular diagonals.
- Kites have exactly one pair of congruent opposite angles.
- This helps verify kite properties and examine relationships.
