Why is a parallelogram always a quadrilateral but a quadrilateral is only sometimes a parallelogram?
A parallelogram must have 4 sides and so it must be a quadrilateral. However, the sides of a quadrilateral need not be parallel so a quadrilateral need not be a parallelogram.
What is a quadrilateral parallelogram?
A quadrilateral is a polygon with four sides. A parallelogram is a quadrilateral in which the opposite sides are parallel.
If one diagonal of a quadrilateral bisects the other when is the quadrilateral a parallelogram?
In this case, the quadrilateral is sometimes a parallelogram.
If opposite angles of a quadrilateral are supplementary is the quadrilateral a parallelogram?
No. A quadrilateral is a parallelogram when consecutiveangles are supplementary.
Conditions which guarantee that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram?
Theorem A: A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if its opposite sides are congruent. Theorem B: A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if a pair of opposite sides is parallel and congruent. Theorem C: A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if its diagonals bisect each other. Theorem D: A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if both pairs of opposite angles are congruent.

What shape is a parallelogram but not a quadrilateral?
A shape that is a parallelogram but not a quadrilateral doesn't exist.
Is parallelogram and quadrilateral the same thing?
No. A parallelogram is a special kind of quadrilateral.
If one diagonal of a quadrilateral bisects the other when is the quadrilateral a parallelogram?
In this case, the quadrilateral is sometimes a parallelogram.
If opposite angles of a quadrilateral are supplementary is the quadrilateral a parallelogram?
No. A quadrilateral is a parallelogram when consecutiveangles are supplementary.
Is a parallelogram any other kind of quadrilateral?
No, a parallelogram is not another kind of quadrilateral.
How do you find a parallelogram in a quadrilateral?
It's not a matter of 'finding' it. Either the quadrilateral is a parallelogram,or else it is not one.If the opposite sides of the quadrilateral are parallel, then it's a parallelogram.
What are three different names of a square?

What makes a quadrilateral a parallelogram?
A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if it has two pairs of (opposite) sides that are parallel.
If a quadrilateral is a square then it is a parallelogram. A quadrilateral is a square if and only if it is a parallelogram.?
The second statement is false.
