28. Determines the conditions that make a quadrilateral a parallelogram.
29. Uses properties to find measures of angles, sides and other quantities involving parallelograms.
What is in?
The students will read the objectives intended for the day.
Objectives:
- At the end of the lesson, learner is expected to:
a. Determines the conditions that make a quadrilateral a parallelogram
b. Uses properties to find measures of angles, sides and other quantities involving parallelograms
c. Recognizes the importance and the usefulness of quadrilaterals in dealing with real-life situations.
Guide Questions :
1. What do you see in the illustrations?
2. Do you see parts that show quadrilaterals?
3. Can you give some significance of their designs?
4. What might happen if you change their design?
5. What are the different group/sets of quadrilaterals?
In activity 1 the learners looked the illustrations, determined the significance of their design and some disadvantages that might
happen in changing their designs and classified the different groups/sets of quadrilaterals. Now they are going to refresh their
minds on the definitions of quadrilaterals and its kinds through the activity 2.
The activity 2 above will guide the learners in answering activity 3 below to determine which quadrilaterals are parallelograms.
What’s New ?
B. Development
In this section the learners will learn the conditions that guarantee that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram. After which, you will
able to determine the properties of a parallelogram and use these to find the measures of angles, sides, and other quantities
involving parallelograms.
The learners will perform activity 5.
Guide Questions :
1. Based on the table, what is the true the following?
a. Pairs of opposite sides
b. Pairs of opposite angles
c. Pairs of consecutive angles
d. Pairs of segments formed by intersecting diagonals
2. What does each diagonal do to parallelogram?
3. Make a conjecture about the two triangles formed when a diagonal of a parallelogram is drawn. Explain your answer.
4. What can you say about your findings?
5. Do the findings apply to all kinds of parallelogram? Why?
What Is It ?
Your answers in activity 4 guide questions show the conditions that guarantee that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram. As a
summary, complete the statements in the activity 5.
Activity 5: Complete Me!
Direction : Complete the statements that follow using the correct words/phrases based on your findings.
1. A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if both pairs of __________ sides are __________.
2. A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if both pairs of __________ angles are _________.
3. A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if both pairs o _________ angles are __________.
4. A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if the _________ bisect each other.
5. A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if each __________ divides a parallelogram into two __________.
The students just determined the conditions that guarantee a quadrilateral. Now, they may use the following conditions as a
guide in doing the next activity.
Students observations in previous activities can be proven deductively using two two-column proof. They will do this in activity 7
which they shall prove the different properties of parallelogram. These are the following:
Properties of Parallelograms
1. In a parallelogram, any two opposite sides re congruent.
2. In a parallelogram, any two opposite angles are congruent.
3. In a parallelogram, any two consecutive angles are supplementary.
4. The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
5. A diagonals of a parallelogram forms two congruent triangles.
The learners are now ready to use the different properties of parallelograms in finding the measures of the angles, sides and
other quantities involving parallelograms. They may study the illustrative examples below.
Illustrative Examples :
To test the understanding of the learners, they will perform activity 8.
Direction: Given the specified type of quadrilateral, find the requested information.
The learners will answer the assessment provided to determine if they met the objectives.
A. Direction: Write the letter of your answer. After taking and checking this short test, take note of the items that you were not
