In quadrilateral ABCD, diagonals AC and BD bisect one another, What statement is used to prove that quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram?
a. Angles BAD and ADC are congruent. b. Corresponding angles BCD and CDA are supplementary. c. Sides CD and DA are congruent. d. Vertical angles BPA and DPC are congruent.
BP = PD and AP = CP (That's what we mean when diagonals bisect each other). So, if BP = PD and AP = CP, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
so which would it be? (sorry im horrible at this)
Once the vertical angles are congruent, the triangles are congruent, and you have a parallelogram. As opposite sides will be congruent because of SAS.
so its A?
No. When the vertical angles are congruent, you will have the triangles congruent via SAS.
oh okay! thanks
In quadrilateral ABCD, diagonals AC-DC and BFF bisect one another. What statement is used to prove that quadrilateral ABCD is parallelogram? 1: segment AP is congruent to segment CP. 2:segment BP is congruent to segment AP. 3: sides AB and BC are congruent. 4: triangle BCP and CDP are congruent. Plz help for a metal..... Is the same pictures as the one in top!!!
