No, it doesn't have to be. A quadrilateral can definitely be a parallelogram only if: - Both pairs of opposite sides are parallel. - Both pairs of opposite sides are congruent. - One pair of opposite sides are both congruent and parallel. - Both pairs of opposite angles are congruent. - The diagonals bisect each other.
parallelogram.
That's a rhombus.
Parallelogram
A quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides congruent is a parallelogram.
False. If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are congruent then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
A quadrilateral with congruent pairs of adjacent sides and no parallel sides is a kite.
There are 5 ways to prove a Quadrilateral is a Parallelogram. -Prove both pairs of opposite sides congruent -Prove both pairs of opposite sides parallel -Prove one pair of opposite sides both congruent and parallel -Prove both pairs of opposite angles are congruent -Prove that the diagonals bisect each other
* both pairs of opposite sides are parallel * both pairs of opposite sides are congruent * both pairs of opposite angles are congruent * one pair of opposite sides are parallel and congruent * both diagonals bisect each other * all consecutive angle pairs are supplementary
No, all that is required is that it has four straight sides.
A parallelogram or a rhombus
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with opposite sides parallel and congruent.
