Am I right? Prove that opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent. Be sure to create and name the appropriate geometric figures. The line BD is shared. Angle DAB = angle BCD because opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal.

well you are right casey but your statement isnt complete!!

Okay! How can I improve my answer?

The line BD is shared. Angle DAC = angle BAC because adjacent angles are equal. Also <ABC = <ADC because they are opposite angles. Now triangles ABC and ADC are congruent. So AB=CD.
