| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| quadrilateral | a four sided figure |
| diagonal | segment joining any two nonconsecutive vertices in a quadrilateral |
| parallelogram | special kind of quadrilateral in which both pairs of opposite sides are parallel |
| opposite sides of a parallelogram are | congruent |
| opposite angles of a parallelogram are | congruent |
| consecutive angles in a parallelogram are | supplementary |
| diagonals of a parallelogram | bisect each other |
| quadrilateral is parallelogram if #1 | both pairs of opposite sides are parallel |
| quadrilateral is parallelogram if #2 | both pairs of opposite sides are congruent |
| quadrilateral is parallelogram if #3 | pair of opposite sides are both parallel and congruent |
| quadrilateral is parallelogram if #4 | diagonals bisect each other |
| quadrilateral is parallelogram if #5 | both pairs of opposite angles are congruent |
| rectangle | quadrilateral with four right angles |
| rectangle property that make is a parallelogram #1 | opposite sides are congruent |
| rectangle property that make is a parallelogram #2 | opposite angles are congruent |
| rectangle property that make is a parallelogram #3 | consecutive angles are supplementary |
| rectangle property #1 | all four angles are right angles |
| rectangle property #2 | diagonals are congruent |
| rhombus | quadrilateral with four congruent sides |
| square | quadrilateral with four right angles and four congruent sides |
| diagonals of a rhombus are | perpendicular |
| each diagonal of a rhombus | bisects a pair of opposite angles |
| trapezoid | quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides |
| parallel sides of trapezoids are called | bases |
| nonparallel sides of trapezoids are called | legs |
| isosceles trapezoid | trapezoids legs are congruent |
| segment that joins the midpoints of the legs of the trapezoid is called | median |
| both pairs of base angles of an isosceles trapezoid are | congruent |
| diagonals of an isosceles trapezoid are | congruent |
| median of a trapezoid is parallel to | bases |
| median formula for trapezoids | one half the sum of the measures of the bases |
