Parallelogram properties and examples assignment.

From one of the pages with the parallelogram maker, make a good variety of the shapes the parallelogram maker can make. Copy and paste them into a Word document (you'll probably need to shrink them down so you can fit several on a page). I will grade this part by considering how complete the variety of parallelograms you have included in your list. Look at my pages of rectangles, trapezoids and kites in the Powerpoint file to see examples of what I want.

Either above or below the pictures, write your list of properties that parallelograms have. Try to use geometry words correctly.
