1. Chapter 6 Quadrilaterals Section 6 – 1 Classifying Quadrilaterals Objective: To define and classify special types of quadrilaterals

3. Quadrilateral:

4. Parallelogram: Rhombus: Rectangle: Square: A quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides parallel A parallelogram with four congruent sides A parallelogram with four right angles A parallelogram with four congruent sides and four right angles.

5. Kite: Trapezoid: Isosceles Trapezoid: A quadrilateral with two pairs of adjacent sides congruent and no opposite sides congruent A quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides A trapezoid whose nonparallel opposite sides are congruent.

6. Example 1Classifying a Quadrilateral A)Judging by appearance, classify DEFG in as many ways as possible. B)Determine the most precise name for DEFG

7. C)Judging by appearance, classify WXYZ in as many ways as possible. D)Which name gives the most information about WXYZ?

8. Example 2Classifying by Coordinate Methods A) Determine the most precise name for quadrilateral LMNP.

9. B)Determine the most precise name for quadrilateral ABCD with vertices A(-3, 3), B(2, 4), C(3, -1), and D(-2, -2).

10. C)Determine the most precise name for quadrilateral with vertices Q(-4, 4), B(-2, 9), H(8, 9), and A(10,4).

11. Example 3Using the properties of Special Quadrilaterals A)Find the value of the variables for the kite.

12. B)Find the values of the variables for the rhombus. Then find the lengths of the sides.
