Among all the kinds of
quadrilaterals, which are
considered as parallelograms?
KINDS OF
PARALLELOGRAMS

 rectangle
 rhombus

THEOREMS ON
RECTANGLES

1) If a parallelogram has a
right angle, then it has four
right angles and it is a
rectangle.

- are the most special among

all the kinds of parallelograms
because all the properties of
parallelograms and the
theorems on rectangles and
rhombuses are true to all
squares.
