Sufficient Conditions for Quadrilaterals to Be Parallelograms
Theorem. Converse of the following: Opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent.
If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
Prove this theorem as an exercise.
Theorem. Converse of the following: Consecutive angles in a parallelogram are supplementary.
If one angle of a quadrilateral is supplementary to both angles adjacent to it, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
Given: | Quadrilateral ABCD, where is supplementary to both and |
Prove: | Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram. |

Proof:
