Why were the students late to their geometry class? They took the rhombus! (Rowan: "Not funny. Not funny at all.")

Geometry 4(A) distinguish between undefined terms, definitions, postulates, conjectures, and theorems
Geometry 5(A) investigate patterns to make conjectures about geometric relationships, including angles formed by parallel lines cut by a transversal, criteria required for triangle congruence, special segments of triangles, diagonals of quadrilaterals, interior and exterior angles of polygons, and special segments and angles of circles choosing from a variety of tools
Geometry 5(B) construct congruent segments, congruent angles, a segment bisector, an angle bisector, perpendicular lines, the perpendicular bisector of a line segment, and a line parallel to a given line through a point not on a line using a compass and a straightedge
Geometry 5(C) use the constructions of congruent segments, congruent angles, angle bisectors, and perpendicular bisectors to make conjectures about geometric relationships
Geometry 6(B) prove two triangles are congruent by applying the Side-Angle-Side, Angle-Side-Angle,Side-Side-Side, Angle-Angle-Side, and Hypotenuse-Leg congruence conditions
Geometry 6(E) prove a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, rectangle, square, or rhombus using opposite sides, opposite angles, or diagonals and apply these relationships to solve problems
Geometry 11(B) determine the area of composite two-dimensional figures comprised of a combination of triangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, kites, regular polygons, or sectors of circles to solve problems using appropriate units of measure
