By a similar argument used to prove that △AEB ≅ △CED, we can show that △ ≅ △CEB by. So, ∠CAD ≅ ∠ by CPCTC. Therefore, AD || BC by the converse of the theorem. Since both pair of opposite sides are par: AED; By a similar argument used to prove that △AEB ≅ △CED, we can show that △ ≅ △CEB by. So, ∠CAD ≅ ∠ by CPCTC. Therefore, AD || BC by the converse of the theorem. Since both pair of opposite sides are par: SAS; By a similar argument used to prove that △AEB ≅ △CED, we can show that △ ≅ △CEB by. So, ∠CAD ≅ ∠ by CPCTC. Therefore, AD || BC by the converse of the theorem. Since both pair of opposite sides are par: ACB; By a similar argument used to prove that △AEB ≅ △CED, we can show that △ ≅ △CEB by. So, ∠CAD ≅ ∠ by CPCTC. Therefore, AD || BC by the converse of the theorem. Since both pair of opposite sides are par: alternate interior angles

Question 6

By a similar argument used to prove that △AEB ≅ △CED, we can show that △ ≅ △CEB by. So, ∠CAD ≅ ∠ by CPCTC. Therefore, AD || BC by the converse of the theorem. Since both pair of opposite sides are parallel, quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram.

Question 8

Based on the information given, is the quadrilateral a parallelogram? Explain.

Revolt · Accepted Answer

The figure is not necessarily a parallelogram because only one diagonal is bisected and only one pair of sides is congruent.

Question 9

By a similar argument used to prove that △AEB ≅ △CED, we can show that △ ≅ △CEB by. So, ∠CAD ≅ ∠ by CPCTC. Therefore, AD || BC by the converse of the theorem. Since both pair of opposite sides are parallel, quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram.
