Question
(Rectangle, Rhombus, and Square)
The Rectangle
A rectangle is a parallelogram with four right angles.
Reminder: A rectangle is a parallelogram. Thus, it has all the properties of a
parallelogram plus some properties of its own.
Theorem 1. If a parallelogram has a right angle, then it has four right angles and the parallelogram is a
rectangle.
Theorem 2. The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent.
Example 1. Complete a proof in theorem 2.
GIVEN: Rectangle MNQP with diagonals MP and NQ.
PROVE: MP = NQ
