Parallelograms on the same base and between the same parallels are equal in area. Given: Two parallelograms ABCD and EFCD, are on the same base DC and between the same parallel lines AF and DC. To prove: area (∥gm ABCD) = area (∥gm EFCD) Proof: In △ AED and △ BFC BC ∥ AD and AF is a transversal.So, ∠DAE = ∠CBF …..(1) (Corresponding angles of […]

A diagonal of a parallelogram, divides it into two congruent triangles. Given: A parallelogram ABCD and AC is a diagonal, the diagonal AC divides parallelogram ABCD into two triangles △ ABC and △ CDA. To prove: These triangles △ ABD and △CDA are congruent,                        △ ABC ≅ △ CDA Proof: In △ ABC and △ CDA BC ∥ AD and AC […]

Circumscribes and Inscribed Circles Circumscribed Circle The circumscribed circle is one and only one circle that always passes through all three vertices (corners) of the triangle.  The center of the circumscribed circle is a point where all the three perpendicular bisectors of the triangles sides are meet. The center of the circumscribed circle is known ascircumcenter of the triangle. […]
