Study Notes

Conditions for a Parallelogram

  • A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if one pair of opposite sides are parallel and congruent.
  • A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if both pairs of opposite angles are equal.
  • A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if both pairs of opposite sides are equal.
  • A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if the diagonals bisect each other.

Properties of Parallelograms

  • In a parallelogram, any two consecutive angles are supplementary (add up to 180°).
  • In a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other.
  • In a parallelogram, opposite sides are equal and parallel.

Naming Convention of Parallelograms

  • The naming convention of parallelograms is to name them in alphabetical order.

Consecutive Angles in Parallelograms

  • In a parallelogram, any two consecutive angles are supplementary (add up to 180°).

Diagonals in Parallelograms

  • In a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other.

Quadrilateral ABCD

  • Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram if AD = 2x – 10 cm and BC = x + 30 cm.
  • Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram if m∠A = (3x – 10)° and m∠D = (2x + 40)°.

Example Problems

  • If mÌ…Ì…Ì…Ì… ≅ Ì…Ì…Ì… and Ì…Ì…Ì…Ì… // Ì…Ì…Ì…, then the quadrilateral LIVE is a parallelogram.
  • If mÌ…Ì…Ì…Ì… = 13 cm, then mÌ…Ì…Ì…Ì… = ?.
