| Did you know that a square is a super shape? It has all the properties of a parallelogram, a rectangle, and a rhombus. | |

| Does anyone know the properties of a parallelogram? | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| I do!! A parallelogram is a quadrilateral where both pairs of opposite sides are parallel. Also, opposite sides and angles are congruent. | |

| That's correct. Does anyone know the properties of a rectangle? | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| I think I know. A rectangle is a parallelogram with all right angles. Also, the diagonals are congruent, aren't they? | |
