Parallelogram
Opposite sides parallel
Opposite sides ≅
Opposite angles ≅
Consecutive angles add up to 180o
Diagonals bisect each other
Rectangle
Rhombus
Sides perpendicular (All angles are 90o)
Diagonals are perpendicular

Square
(All of the above)
Sides perpendicular/ All angles are 90o
Diagonals perpendicular
STEPS: 1. Graph the points and find the slopes of 4 sides and the 2 diagonals. 2. Is it a rectangle? Yes if the sides are perpendicular. No if the sides are NOT perpendicular. 3. Is it a Rhombus? Yes if the diagonals are perpendicular.
No if the diagonals are NOT perpendicular.
4. If yes to both, it's a square
