Geometry 6-5 Complete Lesson: Conditions for Rhombuses, Rectangles, and Squares

Solve It! Which vertices form a square? Select all that apply.

Problem 1 Got It? A parallelogram has angle measures of 20, 160, 20, and 160. Can it be a rhombus, a rectangle, or a square?

Problem 1 Got It? Explain your response on the previous item.

Problem 1 Got It? Reasoning: Suppose the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other. Can you conclude that it is a rhombus, a rectangle, or a square?

Problem 1 Got It? Explain your response on the previous item.

Problem 2 Got It?

Problem 3 Got It? Can you adapt the method in Problem 3 slightly to stake off a square play area? Explain.

Explain your response to the previous item.

Explain your response to the previous item.

Identify the special parallelograms that have each property.

Error Analysis: Your friend says, "A parallelogram with perpendicular diagonals is a rectangle." What is your friend's error? Explain.

Reasoning: Complete the following steps on the canvas.1. Draw a circle and two of its diameters.2. Connect the endpoints of the diameters to form a quadrilateral.

Reasoning: Which types of quadrilaterals are possible in the previous item? Select all that apply.

Review Lesson 6-4: Use the parallelograms in the diagrams above to match the measures with their angles. (Tip: You may need to use the down arrow key to drag items to the lowest angle measures.)

Review Lesson 2-3: Write the two conditionals as a biconditional.If a parallelogram is a rhombus, then its diagonals are perpendicular.If the diagonals of a parallelogram are perpendicular, then the parallelogram is a rhombus.

Review Lesson 2-3: Write the two conditionals as a biconditional.If a parallelogram is a rectangle, then its diagonals are congruent.If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent, then the parallelogram is a rectangle.
