9. If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram then its opposite sides are congruent.

10. If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram then its opposite angles are congruent.

11. If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram then its consecutive angles are supplementary.

12. Consecutive supplementary angle sets. SET 1 SET 2 SET 3 SET 4

13. If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram then its diagonals bisect each other.

23. WX Y Z (3x + 18) o (4x - 9) o Example 3: WXYZ is a parallelogram. Find the value of x.

24. 3x + 18 = 4x – 9 Example 3: WXYZ is a parallelogram. Find the value of x. WX Y Z (3x + 18) o (4x - 9) o

25. 3x + 18 = 4x – 9 -3x 18 = x – 9 +9 +9 27 = x Example 3: WXYZ is a parallelogram. Find the value of x. WX Y Z (3x + 18) o (4x - 9) o

26. Example 4: A four sided concrete slab has consecutive angle measures of 85 o, 94 o, 85 o, and 96 o. Is the slab a parallelogram? Explain.

27. 85 o 94 o 96 o Example 4: A four sided concrete slab has consecutive angle measures of 85 o, 94 o, 85 o, and 96 o. Is the slab a parallelogram? Explain.

28. No. If the quadrilateral was a parallelogram, both pairs of opposite angles would be congruent. 85 o 94 o 96 o Example 4: A four sided concrete slab has consecutive angle measures of 85 o, 94 o, 85 o, and 96 o. Is the slab a parallelogram? Explain.
