Rectangles

Opp. sides are ||. Opp. sides are . Opp. Angles are . Consecutive angles are supplementary. Diagonals bisect each other.

Definition: A rectangle is a parallelogram with four right angles.

A rectangle is a special type of parallelogram. Thus a rectangle has all the properties of a parallelogram.


Properties of Rectangles

Therefore, ∆AEB, ∆BEC, ∆CED, and ∆AED are isosceles triangles.

If a parallelogram is a rectangle, then its diagonals are congruent.

Theorem:

Converse: If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent , then the parallelogram is a rectangle.


Examples…….1. If AE = 3x +2 and BE = 29, find the value of x.

2. If AC = 21, then BE = _______.

3. If m<1 = 4x and m<4 = 2x, find the value of x.

4. If m<2 = 40, find m<1, m<3, m<4, m<5 and m<6.

m<1=50, m<3=40, m<4=80, m<5=100, m<6=40

Square

Opposite sides are parallel. Four right angles. Four congruent sides. Consecutive angles are supplementary. Diagonals are congruent. Diagonals bisect each other. Diagonals are perpendicular. Each diagonal bisects a pair of opposite angles.

Definition: A square is a parallelogram with four congruent angles and four congruent sides.

Since every square is a parallelogram as well as a rhombus and rectangle, it has all the properties of these quadrilaterals.


Squares – Examples…...Given: ABCD is a square. Complete the following.

1. If AB = 10, then AD = _____ and DC = _____.

2. If CE = 5, then DE = _____.
