To prove that it is a parallelogram, remember that the definition of a parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. Therefore, one way to prove it is a parallelogram is to verify that the opposite sides are parallel. From algebra, remember that two lines are parallel if they have the same slope.
