Properties of Parallelogram

2. The diagonals of a     parallelogram bisect each     other. 3. The adjacent angles of a     parallelogram are     supplementary.

Rectangle

A rectangle is a parallelogram in which one of the interior angles is 90 degrees.

Properties of Rectangle

1. Opposite sides are equal,    and each angle is 90    degrees. 2. Diagonals are equal in     length and bisect each     other.

Rhombus

A rhombus is a parallelogram in which all sides are equal.

Properties of Rhombus

1. All sides are equal, and opposite angles are equal.

2. Adjacent angles are     supplementary 3. Diagonals are     perpendicular bisectors of     each other.

Square
