Corollary for Theorem 4-1 If two lines are parallel, then all the points on one line are equidistant from the other line. Theorem 4-2 Opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent. Theorem 4-3 The Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other Theorem 4-4 If bother pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Theorem 4-5 If one pair of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are both congruent and parallel, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Theorem 4-6 If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Theorem 4-7 If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Theorem 4-8 If three parallel lines cut off congruent segments on one transversal, then they cut off congruent segments on every transversal. Corollary for Theorem 4-8 A line that contains the midpoint of one side of a triangle and is parallel to another side bisects the third side. Theorem 4-9 The Diagonals of a rectangle are congruent Theorem 4-10 The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular Theorem 4-11 Each diagonal of a rhombus bisects two angles of the Rhombus Theorem 4-12 The midpoint of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equidistant from the three vertices. Theorem 4-13 If a angle of a parallelogram is a right angle, then the parallelogram is a rectangle Theorem 4-14 If two consecutive sides of a parallelogram are congruent, then he parallelogram is a rhombus. Theorem 4-15 Base angles of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent. Theorem 4-16 The median of a trapezoid: (1) is parallel to the bases. (2) has the length equal to half the sum of the lengths of the bases. Theorem 4-17 The segment that joins the midpoints of two sides of a triangle: (1) is parallel to the third side; (2) has a length equal to the half of the length of the third side. Theorem 4-18 If one side of a triangle is larger than a second side, then the angle opposite the first angle is longer than the side opposite the second angle Theorem 4-19 If one angle of a triangle is larger than a second angle, then the side opposite the first angle is longer than the side opposite the second angle. Corollaries for Theorem 4-19 Corollary 1 The perpendicular segment from a point to a line is the shortest segment from the point to the line. Corollary 2 The perpendicular segment from a point to a plane is the shortest segment from the point to the plane Theorem 4-20 The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. Theorem 4-21 SAS Inequality Theorem If two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of another triangle, but the included angle of the first triangle is greater than the included angle of the second, then the third side of the first triangle is longer than the third side f the second triangle. Theorem 4-22 SSS Inequality Theorem If two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of another triangle, but the third side of the first triangle is longer than the third side of the second then the included angle of the first triangle is larger than the included angle of the second. Definitions : Parallelogram : is a quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides parallel. Rectangle : a quadrilateral with four right angles Rhombus : a quadrilateral with four congruent sides. Square : a quadrilateral with four right angles and four congruent sides. Trapezoid : a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides Bases : The parallel sides of a trapezoid. Legs : the other sides of a trapezoid that are not parallel. Isosceles : a trapezoid with congruent legs.
