Which statement can be used to prove that a given parallelogram is a rectangle?
RSB [31]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:


The diagonals of the parallelogram are congruent.


Explanation:


In every parallelogram, opposite angles are congruent. This would not mean it is a rectangle.


Consecutive sides of a parallelogram are only congruent if the parallelogram is a rhombus or a square; this would not be a rectangle.


The diagonals of every parallelogram bisect each other. This would not mean it is a rectangle.


The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other. If we know this is true about our parallelogram, this means our parallelogram is a rectangle.
