Parallelogram and Its Properties

The video tutorial explores the properties of parallelograms, focusing on their sides, angles, and diagonals. It demonstrates that opposite sides and angles are equal, adjacent angles are supplementary, and diagonals bisect each other. The tutorial uses congruency conditions to prove these properties, providing a comprehensive understanding of parallelograms in geometry.
