All Properties of a Parallelogram:

-opposite sides are parallel

-opposite sides are congruent

-opposite angles are congruent

-diagonals bisect each other

-any pair of consecutive angles are supplementary

All Properties of a Kite:(half properties become full properties)

-two disjoint pairs of consecutive sides are congruent

-diagonals are perpendicular

-(one diagonal is perpendicular bisector of the other)

-(one of the diagonals bisects a pair of opposite angles)

-(one pair of opposite angles are congruent)

Also:

-all sides are congruent- a rhombus is equilateral

-the diagonals bisect the angles

-the diagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each other

-the diagonals divide the rhombus into four congruent right triangles
