ParallelogramsProperties, Shapes, Diagonals and Area A parallelogram is quadrilateral comprised of two pairs of parallel lines. There are several rules involving
Free Math Printable Worksheets: 1)  Classify Quadrilateral as parallelogram (a classic activity: have the students construct a quadrilateral and its midpoints, then create an inscribed
quadrilateral. Then ask the students to measure the angles, sides etc.. of inscribed shape and use the measurements to classify the shape(parallelogram).

The parallelogram on the left is formed by two pairs of parallel lines. Line x is parallel to line y, and line S is parallel to line T
Line X and Y are parallel, as are T and S. Click on the button below to turn the pure parallel lines into a parallelogram. Answer 
Angles of A ParallelogramIn the parallelogram on the left, parallelogram ABCD, the opposite angles are the ones that are in opposite corners such as  X and Z
W and Y
Triangles can be used to prove this rule about the opposite angle.. X and Y
Y and Z
Z and W W and X
What is the measure of angles x, y, z in parallelogram ABCD?

What is the measure of angles x, y, z in parallelogram ABCD? Answer
In a parallelogram one of the angles measures 25°, what must be the measure of each of the other three?
Answer one = 25° (this is the opposite angle) another = 180-25 = 155° (a consecutive angle) a third = 180-25 = 155°; (a consecutive angle) Properties of parallelograms: Angles | Sides | Diagonals |Interactive Parallelogram | top Types of Parallelograms: rectangle | rhombus | square | rectangle vs. square | comparison of properties of each type of parallogram | Criteria prove quadrilateral is a parallelogram Sides of a Parallelogram
The opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent. Triangles can be used to prove this rule about the opposite sides.. To explore these rules governing the sides of a parallelogram use Math Warehouse's interactive parallelogram  What is the length of side BD and side CD in parallelogram ABCD?

What is x in the parallelogram on the left?
Answer
What is the value of x and y in the parallelogram below?
Answer 
x =90

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other
CO = OB  What is x and Y?
Answer
Since the diagonals bisect each other, y = 16 and x = 22  What is x? Answer x + 40 = 2x + 18 40 = x +18 40 = x + 18 22 = x Top |
