Point 2 of 4

16.2.2 Opposite Sides Equal, Opposite Angles Equal

Core idea

Two parallel rails are the same length and facing angles are the same size; draw a diagonal and a quick congruence proof shows it

Module goal. Focus on the most important quadrilateral, the parallelogram, starting from a feel for its symmetry and deriving every property of its sides, angles, and diagonals
