Parallelograms
 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its opposite sides are congruent.
 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its opposite angles are congruent.
 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its diagonals bisect each other.
 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then consecutive angles are supplementary.
 If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
 If one pair of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are parallel and congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
 If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
 If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
Rectangle
 If a quadrilateral is a rectangle, then it is a parallelogram.
 If a parallelogram is a rectangle, then its diagonals are congruent.
 If one angle of a parallelogram is a right angle, then the parallelogram is a rectangle.
 If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent, then the parallelogram is a rectangle.
Rhombus
 If a quadrilateral is a rhombus, then it is a parallelogram.
 If a parallelogram is a rhombus, then its diagonals are perpendicular.
 If a parallelogram is a rhombus, then each diagonal bisects a pair of opposite angles.
 If the diagonals of a parallelogram are perpendicular, then the parallelogram is a rhombus.
 If one diagonal of a parallelogram bisects a pair of opposite angles, then the parallelogram is a rhombus.
Square
 To prove a square, you must prove it is both a rectangle and a rhombus.
Kite
 If a quadrilateral is a kite, then its diagonals are perpendicular.
 If a quadrilateral is a kite, then exactly one pair of opposite angles are congruent.
 If a quadrilateral is a kite, then one of the diagonals bisects the pair of non-congruent angles.
 If a quadrilateral is a kite, then exactly one diagonal bisects the other.
Isosceles Trapezoid
 If a quadrilateral is an isosceles trapezoid, then each pair of base angles are congruent.
 If a trapezoid has one pair of congruent base angles, then the trapezoid is isosceles.
 A trapezoid is isosceles if and only if its diagonals are congruent.
Midsegment of a trapezoid is the segment whose endpoints are the midpoints of the legs.
 The midsegment is parallel to each base and its length is one half the sum of the lengths of the bases.
