Any polygon with 2n sides (n integer) where opposite sides are parallel, will have its opposite angles congruent.
* both pairs of opposite sides are parallel * both pairs of opposite sides are congruent * all angles are 90 degrees * both pairs of opposite angles are congruent * the diagonals bisect each other.
There are many such shapes. Any polygon with an even number of sides can have opposite sides that meet the above requirements.
If a quadrilateral has two pairs of opposite congruent sides, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
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
A parallelogram has two pairs of congruent sides, and the opposite sides are congruent.
A quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides congruent is a parallelogram.
A polygon with 2n sides (n>1) can have opposite sides congruent.

2 pairs, the sides opposite each other are congruent to 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, 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.

Both pairs of opposite sides are parallel + congruent, and both pairs of opposite angles are also congruent.
