congruent triangles.
Theorem 2
Opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent.
Theorem 3
Consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary.
Theorem 4
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
Theorem 5
If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
Theorem 6
If one pair of opposite sides of a
quadrilateral is both parallel and congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
Theorem 7
If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
Theorem 8
If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, then the quadrilateral is parallelogram.
Theorem 9
The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent.
Theorem 10
The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular.
Theorem 11
Each diagonal of a rhombus bisects two angles of the rhombus.
Theorem 12
Base angles of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent.
Theorem 13
If the base angles of a trapezoid are congruent, then the trapezoid is isosceles.
Theorem 14
The diagonals of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent.
Theorem 15
If the diagonals of a trapezoid are congruent then, the trapezoid is isosceles.
Theorem 16
The diagonals of a kite are perpendicular.
Theorem 17
In a kite, one diagonal bisects the other diagonal.
Theorem 18
In a kite, one of the diagonals bisects the angles at its endpoints and the other two angles are congruent.
Theorem 19
The segment that joins the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side.
Theorem 20
The Midline/Midsegment Theorem
If three or more parallel lines cut off congruent segments on one transversal, then the parallel lines cut off congruent segments on any transversal cutting the parallel lines.
Theorem 21
The median of a trapezoid is parallel to the bases and has a length equal to half the sum of the lengths of the bases.
Theorem 22
Median of a Trapezoid Theorem
If a line is drawn from the midpoint of one side of a triangle and parallel to a second side, then it passes through the midpoint of the third side.
Theorem 23
If two polygons are similar, then the ratio of
their perimeters is equal to the ratio of any two
corresponding sides.
