[G.CO.11] Congruence #11
Objective
Common Core Text:
[G.CO.11] Prove theorems about parallelograms. Theorems include: opposite sides are congruent, opposite angles are congruent, the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, and conversely, rectangles are parallelograms with congruent diagonals.
Said Differently:
Prove the following theorems about parallelograms
Opposite sides are congruent
Opposite angles are congruent
Diagonals bisect each other
Rectangles are parallelograms with congruent diagonals

Explanation
Parallelogram
A parallelogram is a shape made from two pairs of parallel lines.
Opposite Sides are Congruent & Opposite Angles are Congruent
