Transcribed Image Text:**Question:**
Which of the following would be enough information to prove that quadrilateral \(QRST\) is a parallelogram?
**Diagram Description:**
The diagram shows quadrilateral \(QRST\) with diagonals \(QT\) and \(RS\) intersecting at point \(P\).
**Answer Choices:**
a) \( \overline{QR} \equiv \overline{ST} \)
b) \( \overline{QR} \parallel \overline{ST} \)
c) \( \overline{QP} \equiv \overline{PS} \) and \( \overline{TP} \equiv \overline{PR} \)
d) Two pairs of sides are congruent.
**Explanation:**
To determine if a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, we should confirm any of the following conditions:
1. Opposite sides are parallel.
2. Opposite sides are congruent.
3. Diagonals bisect each other.
4. One pair of opposite sides is both parallel and congruent.
In this problem, the best choice would be based on the given criteria that can verify the presence of these conditions.
