Parallelogram
Opposite sides are equal in length
Opposite sides are parallel
Opposite angles are equal (i.e., bottom-right = upper-left)
Adjacent angles are supplementary
Perimeter = 2(width) + 2(length)
Area = (width)(height)
Rhombus
All sides are equal in length
Adjacent angles are supplementary
Opposite angles are equal
Diagonals form right angles
Diagonals bisect each other
Diagonals bisect end angles
Note: In a rhombus, while all sides are equal, all angles are not necessarily equal.
Perimeter = 4(side)
Area = 1/2(diagonal1 × diagonal2)
Trapezoid
One pair of sides is parallel
Perimeter = A + B + C + D
Area = 1/2(height)(base1 + base2)
