6-4 Properties of Special Parallelograms
Prove and apply properties of squares.Use properties of squares to solve problems.Prove that a given quadrilateral is a square.
Objectives
Holt Geometry
6-4 Properties of Special Parallelograms
A square is a quadrilateral with four right angles and four congruent sides. In the exercises, you will show that a square is a parallelogram, a rectangle, and a rhombus. So a square has the properties of all three.
Holt Geometry
6-4 Properties of Special Parallelograms
Rectangles, rhombuses, and squares are sometimes referred to as special parallelograms.

5. The vertices of square ABCD are A(1, 3), B(3, 2), C(4, 4), and D(2, 5). Show that its diagonals are congruent perpendicular bisectors of each other.
Holt Geometry
6-4 Properties of Special Parallelograms
In order to apply Theorems 6-5-1 through 6-5-5, the quadrilateral must be a parallelogram.
Caution
To prove that a given quadrilateral is a square, it is sufficient to show that the figure is both a rectangle and a rhombus. You will explain why this is true in Exercise 43.
Holt Geometry
6-4 Properties of Special Parallelograms
You can also prove that a given quadrilateral is arectangle, rhombus, or square by using the definitions of the special quadrilaterals.

Step 2 Find KM and LN to determine is KLMN is a rectangle.
Since , KMLN is a rectangle.

Step 3 Determine if KLMN is a rhombus.
Since the product of the slopes is –1, the two lines are perpendicular. KLMN is a rhombus.

Step 4 Determine if PQRS is a square.
Since PQRS is a rectangle and a rhombus, it has four right angles and four congruent sides. So PQRS is a square by definition.
