No. If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent then it must be a rectangle (or square).
A Parallelogram and a rhombus
It can also be a kite. That has two congruent pairs of sides but unlike a parallelogram they are adjacent, not opposite. A parallelogram with congruent diagonals is a rectangle.
Theorem A: A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if its opposite sides are congruent. Theorem B: A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if a pair of opposite sides is parallel and congruent. Theorem C: A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if its diagonals bisect each other. Theorem D: A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if both pairs of opposite angles are congruent.
False. If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are congruent then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are congruent, then it is a parallelogram.
For the quadrilateral to be a parallelogram, both pairs of opposite angles must be congruent.
No, the diagonals of a parallelogram do not necessarily bisect the angles. The diagonals of a parallelogram divide it into four congruent triangles, but they do not necessarily bisect the angles of those triangles.
A parallelogram is one of them.
Rectangle: A quadrilateral with 4 right angles, diagonals congruent/bisecting, and opposite sides congruent, BUT ADJACENT SIDES ARE NOT CONGRUENT. Rhobus: A quadrilateral with opposite congruent angles, but adjacent angles are Not congruent, perpendicular bisecting diagonals and 4 congruent sides. Square: A quadrilateral that is a rectangle and a square with 4 right angles, diagonals congruet/bisecting that ar perpendicular, and opposites sides congruent.
Every parallelogram is.
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral (4-sided figure) with both pairs of opposite sides parallel. That's usually the primary definition. There are properties common to all parallelograms: opposite sides are congruent, opposite angles are congruent, and diagonals bisect each other. Other special parallelograms have additional properties. A rectangle is a parallelogram with four right angles and its diagonals are congruent. A rhombus is a parallelogram with four congruent sides. Its diagonals are perpendicular and each diagonal bisects two angles of the rhombus. A square is a parallelogram as well. It has four right angles and four congruent sides, so it is also a rectangle and a rhombus. How's that for confusing???
Yes
