Can a quadrilateral ABCD be a parallelogram if
(i) ZD + ZB = 180°?
(ü) AB = DC = 8 cm, AD = 4 cm and BC = 4.4 cm?
(ii) ZA = 70° and ZC = 65°?
Answers
< />A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if
i)Its opposite sides are equal
ii) its opposite angles are equal
iii) diagonals bisect each other
iv) a pair of opposite sides is equal and parallel.
v) The sum of the adjacent angles should be 180∘
=========================================================
Solution:
i)
if ∠D + ∠B = 180°, a quadrilateral ABCD may or may not be a parallelogram
but it should also fulfilled some conditions which are as:
The sum of the adjacent angles should be 180∘
Opposite angles must be of equal length.
(ii) No, opposite sides should be of same length. Here, opposite sides are of different lengths. AD ≠ BC
(iii) No, opposite angles should be of same measures. Here opposite angles are of different measures. ∠A ≠ ∠C.
