Certain conditions of a parallelogram are enough to prove that a
parallelogram is a rectangle, a rhombus, or a square.

If one angle of a parallelogram is a right If two consecutive sides of a


angle, the parallelogram is a rectangle. parallelogram are congruent, the
parallelogram is a rhombus.

If the diagonals of a If one diagonal of a If a parallelogram can be


parallelogram are parallelogram bisects a pair proven to be a rectangle and
perpendicular, it is a of opposite angles, it is a a rhombus, it is a square.
rhombus. rhombus.

State whether the figure is a rectangle, rhombus, or square. Explain


your reasoning. There may be more than 1 answer.

Practice and Problem Solving: Modified

Use the figure for Exercises 1–4. Determine whether each conclusion
is valid. Then fill in the blanks to make a true statement. The first one
has been done for you.
1. Given: AC ⊥ BD, AB ≅ BC
Conclusion: ABCD is a rhombus.
The conclusion is valid. When diagonals of a parallelogram are perpendicular,
the parallelogram must be a rhombus.
2. Given: AB || DC, AD ≅ BC, AC ≅ BD

Conclusion: ABCD is a parallelogram.


The conclusion is _________________ . When opposite sides of a quadrilateral are

_________________ and _________________ , the quadrilateral is a _________________ .

3. Given: AB || DC, AD ≅ BC, AC ≅ BD


Conclusion: ABCD is a rectangle.

The conclusion is _____. You need to know that _____ and AD are _________________ .
4. Given: AB ≅ DC, AD ≅ BC, m∠ADB = m∠ABD = 45°
Conclusion: ABCD is a square.

The conclusion is _____. You need to know that AC and _____ are _________________ .

Complete Exercises 5–8 to show that the conclusion is valid. The first
one has been done for you.
Given: JK ≅ ML, JM ≅ KL, and JK ≅ KL.
Conclusion: JKLM is a square.
5. Because JK ≅ ML and JM ≅ KL, JKLM is a parallelogram.
6. Because JKLM is a parallelogram and ∠M is a right angle, JKLM is a

___________________________.

7. Because JKLM is a parallelogram and JK ≅ KL, JKLM is a

___________________________.

8. Because JKLM is a _________________ and a _________________,


JKLM is a square.

Fill in the blanks to complete each theorem.


1. If one pair of consecutive sides of a parallelogram are congruent, then

the parallelogram is a _____________________.

2. If the diagonals of a parallelogram are _____________________, then


the parallelogram is a rhombus.

3. If the _____________________ of a parallelogram are congruent, then


the parallelogram is a rectangle.

4. If one diagonal of a parallelogram bisects a pair of opposite angles,

then the parallelogram is a _____________________.

is a _____________________.

Use the figure for Problems 6–7. Determine whether each conclusion is
valid. If not, tell what additional information is needed to make it valid.
6. Given: AC and BD bisect each other. AC ≅ BD
Conclusion: ABCD is a square.
