A parallelogram must be a rhombus if its diagonals (a)  

• are congruent
• bisect each other
• do not bisect its angles
• are perpendicular to each other

A parallelogram is always a rectangle if

• the diagonals are congruent

• the diagonals bisect each other

• the diagonals intersect at right angles

• the opposite angles are congruent

Which information is not sufficient to prove that a parallelogram is a square?

• The diagonals are both congruent and perpendicular.

• The diagonals are congruent and one pair of adjacent sides are congruent.

• The diagonals are perpendicular and one pair of adjacent sides are congruent.

• The diagonals are perpendicular and one pair of adjacent sides are perpendicular.
