Discovering Properties of Rhombi

1) Measure the 4 angles and sides of the rhombus.[br][br]2) Construct diagonals AC and BD.[br][br]3) Measure the length of AC and BD[br][br]4) Measure angles DAC and BAC. Then measure angles ABD and CBD.[br][br]5) Construct the intersection of AC and BD. Then measure the angles where the diagonals intersect.

What do you notice about the angles?

Consecutive angles are complimentary. Opposite angles are not congruent Opposite angles are congruent

What do you notice about the sides?

Nothing of interest. All 4 sides are congruent. Opposite sides are not congruent

What do you notice about the diagonals?
