Parallelograms Lesson 13: Parallelograms Purpose: This lesson introduces the definitions and properties of parallelograms. The Logo program provides an excellent environment to explore different types of parallelograms. This lesson uses a procedure with three variables to efficiently draw a given parallelogram. This lesson contains optional information on how to set the dimensions of the graphic window. Essential Question: Can you apply your knowledge of interior and exterior angle measures to code and investigate the properties of parallelograms? Definitions: A quadrilateral is a closed polygon with exactly four sides. A parallelogram is a quadrilateral that has two pairs of parallel sides. A rectangle is a parallelogram with a right angle. A square is a rectangle with all sides of equal length (equilateral). A rhombus is a parallelogram with all sides of equal length (equilateral). Recall that a regular polygon is both equiangular and equilateral. The square (introduced in Lesson #5) is the only regular quadrilateral. Note that the precise wording of a definition will vary depending on the book you are using. For example, a square could be defined as a rhombus with a right angle. LESSON 13 – TASK 1: The graphic in Figure 13.1 shows parallelogram ABCD with given side lengths of 135 pixels by 195 pixels and an acute interior angle of 40 degrees. An auxiliary line was drawn from point A perpendicular to line BC. Write and test the Logo code for this shape starting at point A. (check your work at the end of this lesson). Figure 13.1 A parallelogram provides a good example of pairs of lines that are cut by a transversal. For example, lines AB and DC are cut by transversal AD (and transversal BC). Lines AD and BC are cut by transversal AB (and transversal DC). It helps to use colored pencils when locating a transversal line! KG SHAFER, ©2012 revision date – March 8, 2013 Parallelograms Definitions and Theorems Vertical Angles are defined as two non-adjacent angles formed by the intersection of two distinct lines. This definition was introduced in Lesson #4. Vertical Angles Theorem Vertical angles have the same measure (are congruent). Alternate Interior Angles are located between the pair of lines cut by the transversal but on opposite sides of the transversal. Alternate Interior Angle Theorem (AIA) If a pair of alternate interior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel. If a pair of parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the alternate interior angles are congruent. *The two conditional statements of the AIA Theorem can be written as one bi-conditional statement. See the end of this lesson for more information. LESSON 13 - TASK 2: In Figure 13.2, the measure of angle BAD is 40°. Mark each of the remaining 40-degree angles with a single arc tic mark. An example of the single arc tic mark is shown at angle BAD. Arc tic marks of the same type indicate angle measures that are equal. After marking the diagram, complete the chart below. In the first row of the chart, write the vertical angle pairs for all of the 40° degree angles. In the second row, write the alternate interior angle pairs for all of the 40° angles. Figure 13.2 Vertical Angle Pairs ∠BAD and ∠MAN Alternate Interior Angle Pairs ∠BAD and ∠TBA KG SHAFER, ©2012 revision date – March 8, 2013 Parallelograms Types of Parallelograms Figure 13.3 illustrates six parallelograms drawn on a grid (each section is 100 x 100). The first two parallelograms are rectangles that are not squares. The side dimensions are 50 x 80 pixels. The third shape is an 80 x 80 square. The next two shapes are parallelograms that are not rectangles or rhombi. Their side dimensions are 50 x 80. The last shape is an 80 x 80 rhombus that is not a square. The acute angle in the last three shapes is 60 degrees. It is helpful to create shapes that have certain restrictions when you are studying parallelograms. Figure 13.3 In this lesson, I will use one procedure, titled ‘PARA’, to efficiently draw each of the six shapes shown above. When you write a program with variables, you must make an assignment for each variable. In the PARA procedure, I made the assignments as follows: X = length of the first side drawn Y = length of the second side drawn (adjacent side) A = measure of the base angle at the lower left corner of the shape LESSON 13 – TASK 3: Open the editor and name the new procedure PARA (as shown in figure 13.4). Type X Y A for the input variables Enter REPEAT 2[FD X RT (180-A) FD Y RT A) in the command window Define (save) the procedure Figure 13.4 Run the procedure from the listener window by typing para 80 50 90 without any brackets. This is the code for the first rectangle in figure 13.3. Note that when you run the procedure from the listener window you must type three values after the PARA command. KG SHAFER, ©2012 revision date – March 8, 2013 Parallelograms A. Use the Logo code in the third column of the chart below to explore results of the PARA procedure. Try to predict what shape will be drawn by examining the information given in the first two columns. B. Complete the chart by indicating if your Logo shape matches the definition for each quadrilateral. An example is shown for the first row. Label each row with the most descriptive category i-iv. i. Parallelogram that is not a rhombus or rectangle ii. Rhombus that is not a square iii. Rectangle that is not a square iv.

Complete the following charts by indicating which properties of diagonals are true or false for each given shape. Use Logo to help you justify your decision (no guessing!). If you do not know what a line of symmetry is, you may look it up on the Internet or in the glossary of a geometry book. Parallelogram that is not a Rectangle or a Rhombus Diagonals are congruent false Rectangle that is not a Square Diagonals are congruent Diagonals bisect each other Diagonals bisect each other Diagonals are lines of symmetry Diagonals are lines of symmetry Rhombus that is not a square Square Diagonals are congruent Diagonals are congruent Diagonals bisect each other Diagonals bisect each other Diagonals are lines of symmetry Diagonals are lines of symmetry true E. A Venn diagram can be used to show the relationship between sets of items. Label the regions of the Venn diagram shown in Figure 13.5 with the types of parallelograms listed below. Let the universal set be Polygons. Squares Rectangles Rhombi Quadrilaterals Parallelograms Figure 13.5 KG SHAFER, ©2012 revision date – March 8, 2013 Parallelograms Lesson Thirteen Project Sketch three different quadrilaterals that are a: a) Parallelogram that is not a Rectangle or a Rhombus b) Rectangle that is not a Square c) Rhombus that is not a square Measure one angle of each parallelogram and two adjacent sides. Then, write/test the logo code for that parallelogram. Do not use measurements that were used in this lesson. Solution for Lesson 13 - Task 1 rt 50 fd 135 rt 40 fd 195 rt 140 fd 135 rt 40 fd 195 Discussion of a bi-conditional statement An if-then statement is called a conditional statement. If you have two inverse if-then statements (in the form of if hypothesis then conclusion and if conclusion then hypothesis) that are true, they can be combined into one bi-conditional statement. The format for the biconditional statement is to use “if and only if” between the two conditions. The AIA Theorem can be written in either of the following statements. A pair of alternate interior angles are congruent if and only if the lines are parallel. Or A pair of parallel lines are cut by a transversal if and only if the alternate interior angles are congruent. KG SHAFER, ©2012 revision date – March 8, 2013 Parallelograms Optional I used the setwinsize “graphics command (introduced below) in the program “Myhouse (with grass)” from Lesson 8. Different screen sizes and/or resolution settings can distort what is seen when a Logo program is executed. The command winsize “graphics will return the current setting. The default screen settings for three of my computers are listed here: MacBook 1280 x 800 resolution winsize “graphics Result: [1125 437] MacBook Pro 1440 x 900 resolution Winsize “graphics Result: [618 462 ] Windows 7 PC with a large monitor 1920 x 1080 winsize “graphics Result: [1742 604] New Commands: The Logo Coordinate Grid has a default size (dimensions) that depends on the computer you are using. Also, the size of the graphics window can be changed by dragging the edges. To standardize the graphics window’s dimensions, use the setwinsize “graphics command. setwinsize “graphics [width height] needs two inputs, the width and the height in pixels. In order to create a larger turtle, use the setturtlesize command. Note that a larger turtle size is helpful when working with younger students or with students who have a visual impairment. I used four commands to create the graphic shown in Figure 13.6 gridon cs setturtlesize 3 setwinsize “graphics [800 400] Figure 13.6 KG SHAFER, ©2012 revision date – March 8, 2013
