Copy of Discovering Properties of Parallelograms (Scaffolded Discovery)

Author:Ginny Mayhew, Tim Brzezinski, Julian Ornelas
The applet below contains a quadrilateral that ALWAYS remains a parallelogram. The purpose of this applet is to help you understand many of the geometric properties a parallelogram has. Some of these properties are unique and only hold true for a parallelogram (and not just any quadrilateral). The questions you need to answer are displayed below this applet.
